Very solid CPA firm that reliably provides sound tax advice and general business guidance. Super convenient for us as an Issaquah based business too!
Love them, they do my business and personal taxes each year, they're great. Very responsive and easy to work with.
I have used them for quite a few years. They are knowledgeable and responsive.
I have been using Fleck Jurenka for YEARS now. Love the whole crew. We have a complex business and they have not only served us beautifully, but they have helped us navigate taxes and write offs and they are a critical part of our outside professional team! They are an awesome CPA Firm!
My husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Dave Fleck for several years. Everyone at his office is professional and friendly. Dave is easy to talk with, answered all our questions clearly and really knows his stuff!!! Today we needed some tax info from 2017 and he QUICKLY provided the necessary documents. We would highly recommend Mr. Fleck for all your tax preparation needs.
Mr. Fleck is the best and most helpful tax professional that we ever met. He's guided us through our challenging IRS tax audit and have saved us a lot of money.
Professional, responsive, and thorough. Follows a policy of minimizing surprises.
I had a great experience with Fleck Jurenka, LLP and would highly recommend. Their tax filing process is straightforward and efficient. I received a questionnaire in early January, which asked for all of the required information for them to efficiently complete my tax forms. Then I reviewed and signed, and the forms were immediately filed with IRS. They even provided some additional information that would help me in the current year.
Mike Jurenka helped us immensely over the last 10 years or so. Judi and the team were very friendly and helpful. We really appreciate the whole team at Fleck Jurenka!
David Fleck provided a 30 minute initial consult to help me assess whether their conslutation services would be valuable. He gave me a ton of great info and an idea of what areas of my personal taxes they can help with. I was the first visitor to their new office (next door to the old location) and it's really nice! I will definitely use them as my go-to tax professionals in the future.
Thank you to Dave Fleck for helping me with a tax situation I could not figure out. He was knowledgeable and thorough. I really appreciate his expertise and will certainly not hesitate use him again as the need arises.
The team at Fleck Jurenka has been fantastic! I've been incredibly grateful for their professionalism, persistence, and patience in finding all of the relevant aspects of my return as well as their accommodating me while I retrieved all the relevant paperwork. Genuinely thrilled with their help and guidance!
I had the pleasure of consulting with Dave Fleck and he was very gracious to not only make sure that I had all my questions answered, but to also loop in other team members to resource additional needs. Everyone was warm and friendly and eager to help! I would recommend them to anyone.
Always an AWESOME experience. If I have a question I can email it and am always amazed how quickly I get a response. Cindy in the office is The Best and Dave can break down the complicated so it makes simple sense.
David Fleck is an awesome guy. I thought my taxes were complicated but he helped simplify my situation a great deal. Would recommend to anyone!
I?ve been using Dave Fleck for my business and personal for over 20 years, he?s very personable and professional and does wonderful things for your books! I would highly recommend him!
We met Dave when we needed some help understanding our taxes. He took the time to explain what was going and and ran the numbers for us so we wouldn't have additional surprises. He was really great!
On top of everything to do with my taxes! They are one step ahead of the tax updates, reminders, one on one customer service. I've never had to ask twice. They have me covered!
Dave and team were great! They helped us through a complex round of taxes and even found some savings in the previous year. Thank you!
They simply said they are to booked to help me out. For that reason I would probably just use someone else rather then waste your time calling them.
Mike is a valuable resource for our small business. He has proven to be knowledgeable, reliable, and a pleasure to work with.
Their work is prompt and reliable, and they are always available for a question. Mike

Best place out there to get your taxes done
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
