Customer Reviews

Even though I contacted Mike Davidov as a new client during the busy tax season, he graciously agreed to prepare my income tax returns on short notice. The process of completing a questionnaire and uploading my documents was seamless and efficient. I found Mr. Davidov to be very helpful, and he always promptly responded to any questions I had. I highly recommend Davidov & Associates.

Michael Davidov provided the most professional, personalized and efficient service for reporting to the US Tax Committee. The head of the company contacted me in advance and delved into all the details and features of my situation to properly cover the situation. In addition, the software of Davidov's company and its system of document submission and communication with the client are worthy of all praise. A very convenient and efficient system of exchanging and providing information and paying for services.

This has been an excellent experience!! As a first time client, Mike navigated me through the process! I contacted him last November and he was right there! The portal is very customer friendly. Mike is always responsive and available! His pricing levels are perfect! I would highly recommend. This has been one of the better experiences I have ever had! Made this stress free. Thank you!!!

Michael Davidov and Associates have been amazing as we transition from one state to the next. He was able to assist us with Estimated Tax Payments; however, he also managed to review our previous return and refine for additional refunds. Great job!

I am sharing my sincere appreciation for Davidov and Associates (DAS), CPA, by leaving this review of your tax filing services. After considering various tax advising and filing firms, I was impressed by your transparent, ethical, and customizable approach tailored to my needs. It was evident that I would be treated respectfully and benefit from your experience. Your website, which provided comprehensive information about your services and work process, was instrumental in making my decision-making process

I would love to share my experience in this review. Since 2017 I have been a client of Davidoff and Associates. The principal, Mr. Davidov, provides outstanding service. The most important aspect for me is that he tailors his services exactly to my needs. He truly cares about me and my business success. If you are still thinking about a CPA to choose, he is definitely a right fit for a lot of his clients, myself and, I?m pretty sure, will be for you as well. Enjoy the experience and results!

I've done my taxes with Davidoff and Associates for the past two years. Everyone has always been professional and prompt in responding to me, especially Michael Davidov. Michael has been accommodating and willing to help out in anyway he could. It really made me feel like a valued customer. I also have enjoyed the ease of the process and getting to e-file. It definitely makes tax season less of a dreadful experience!

Mike Davidoff has been doing our taxes for about five years and he's been great. We have recommended him to several friends. We have a somewhat tricky situation -- filing taxes for a property we own in another state, and some other non-straightforward tax issues that we just couldn't do ourselves. He has taken care of all these for us and found us some deductions we didn't know we could take. We have found Mike to be very knowledgeable and professional. He always responds to our emails and questions the nex

We were very satisfied with the service provided. We were given detailed directions on the documents that were needed. We met for an in-office interview once. All other correspondences were made over e-mail, which was responded to promptly. We've always dreaded filing taxes because my husband was self-employed through a company based in a different state and I was on a scholarship grant that left all taxes to be handled by the recipient. It was a refreshing change to be able to talk to a real person wh

As a government savvy Washingtonian I had handled some of my own tax concerns before, but when the stakes were higher I wanted the value of having a true expert - someone who knows more than I could possibly handle alone. Michael Davidoff gave me an outlook of what to expect with my filings, now as I receive follow ups from various agencies and I am able to understand state & federal steps as they unfold, armed with knowing exactly what to do next, and knowing we have a path to resolution. This sense of

Michael Davidov has served my tax needs for 8 years. He always provides excellent service, attention to detail, and expert advise to help me manage and prepare my personal and business taxes each year. A true professional. Highly recommended.

Customer Service/Response Time: A+ Method of Communication: A+ Knowledge: A+ Ease of Scheduling: A+ I would highly recommend Mr. Davidov to anyone who is seeking tax advice, whether complicated or simple. I have been doing our household taxes for a number of years, and recently they got a little more complicated so I needed to find someone to help us out. Mr. Davidov was knowledgeable and courteous, and he was able to even fit us in at the height of tax season. He listened to our particular case and was

I had Davidoff and Assoc do some back taxes for me. I had a business loss and made no money for 5 years and did not file my tax returns. Then I decided to get caught up and they were a great help. I had both business and personal and state and federal - 4 returns for 5 years - 20 returns. They did a great job of helping me get my records organized and then doing the returns. Considering the task I thought their charges were very reasonable. I can recommend them highly!!

I found Davidoff & Associates, CPAs online and quickly called for help with my PPP & SBA online application. Michael was professional and very patient. Event though he was busy with other clients, he was still able to assist me with free advise and guidance. I highly recommend Michael and his company to anyone looking for a professional CPA for their business or personal accounting.

I have depended on Mike to help me with my personal and small business accounting needs for over 5 years. He is a top notch accountant and has helped me successfully navigate the tax system and grow my small business. I highly recommend him for your personal and small business accounting needs!

Once I attained the age of 65, my federal and state income taxes filing instructions changed and the IRS notified me of mistakes I had made which were to my disadvantage. I discovered Mr. Michael Davidov several years ago, and has been very, very pleased with his tax preparations. Look forward to doing business with Mr. Davidov each year.

The process of working with Mike went really smoothly. His fees were reasonable and he stayed on track for the timelines we set forth. He was good at explaining things and didn't make me feel dumb for the mistakes I'd made on our returns!

Working with Mike has been great. He?s very knowledgeable and provides excellent customer service.

Professional customer service and very responsive !

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications should I look for in a CPA?

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.

How do I find a CPA in my area?

Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.

What’s the difference between a CPA and an accountant?

A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.

How do I know if a CPA specializes in my needs?

Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.

Should I check a CPA’s reviews before hiring?

Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.

How can I verify a CPA’s license?

Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.

What questions should I ask during a CPA consultation?

Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.

How much should I expect to pay for a CPA’s services?

Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.

Can I work with a CPA remotely?

Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.

How do I assess a CPA’s communication skills?

During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.

What red flags should I watch for when screening a CPA?

Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.

Should I choose a CPA from a large firm or a solo practitioner?

Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.

How often should I meet with my CPA?

For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.

Can a CPA help with both personal and business finances?

Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.

What should I do if I’m not satisfied with my CPA?

Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
