Byron at Glover and Glover CPAs helped my wife and I with a tax question regarding gift taxes and the purchase of a home. He and the team were courteous, and our experience was top notch. Highly recommend them for any and all accounting needs.
Moved here from out of state at the end of 2021, and Byron and his team handled our taxes seamlessly. Second year in a row we?ve used them and the client experience is always great. Byron is super responsive and always willing to lean in. They also use software which makes organizing files easy. Highly recommend!
We've been working with Glover & Glover for 4 years and have had only incredibly positive experiences. They've helped to work through things that I would consider beyond my comfort level with Turbo Tax, and have given me the peace of mind that my taxes are being done as effectively as possible. They are incredibly easy to work with (both personally, and from a technology-standpoint). I would recommend them to anyone looking for tax services!
Byron and his team were very prompt in communication and support for answering questions that I had. The worked diligently to get me the best return possible on an excellent timeline. They even noticed issues that I had with H&R block from my previous year return and are looking at doing an amended return to get me more money. Highly recommend!
I appreciate Byron and the team at Glover & Glover. They are friendly. Compassionate. Know their stuff. And, they follow through as they promise. Byron also has a great memory about his clients and of the work he's done for them. I'm glad I found Glover & Glover, and heartily recommend them.
Dealing with IRS issues is at best a painfully slow process. Byron Glover and team responded immediately to our requests and continually monitored progress until resolution. They took care of issues quickly and were always available for questions or consultation.
We just moved back to Tennessee from North Carolina and had a pretty complex tax situation. We went to Byron Glover and in a very understandable way, he told us what we needed to do and executed it efficiently under a bit of a deadline. This was what professional service should be and if it was possible to give more than five stars we would! Thanks Byron.
I rarely write reviews for people or companies with whom I do business. But I'll make an exception when it comes to Glover and Glover, certified public accountants. Since 1993, Byron Glover has been my CPA for all my accounting needs, including my personal and business taxes. Although I moved to Florida from Tennessee 8 years ago, I continued to use Byron and his staff for accounting services and taxes. Why would I continue to use Byron instead of a local CPA? Simply stated, I never met a CPA who was his e
For years, I have completed my personal tax returns. I thought I had made a mistake on a previous tax filing. Having to consult with a CPA firm was a bit nerve racking until I found Glover & Glover CPAs. Byron Glover is incredibly responsive, patient and knowledgeable. The information, explanation and validation he provided about my taxes quickly defused the anxiety I was feeling. I highly recommend Glover & Glover CPAs for your tax needs.
There are not enough stars to rate Byron's professional tax services. He is knowledgeable, prompt and as professional as they come ! Byron helped me at a time when only the best CPA services would get me through. His customer service skills are phenomenal. I am customer for life or :-) or for my work life anyway.
We needed a super fast consultation on a specific real estate tax question for property in another state. I reached out, Byron responded immediately and set up a call to discuss my questions. He was familiar with the specific forms I had sent him (he reviewed them prior to our call) and was able to walk me through the process and what to put on the forms. He was thoughtful with his responses and asked me questions to ensure I understood everything (as I?m not a tax professional!) I would STRONGLY encourage
My partner owns a retail store, and Mr. Byron Glover is our accountant. I have asked him about a million ridiculous questions over the last year or so of working with him; he has patiently, effectively and promptly answered them all while cleaning up messes I've made through inexperience. I cannot recommend Glover & Glover highly enough.
Filed extension for 2018 and Oct snuck up on me. Dropped everything at Byron?s office on Oct 8th worried that he wouldn?t have time. He got them done and did an excellent job even with a purchase and sell of home. Been with Byron for at least 15 years and will continue to use them! Awesome group of people.
High character, amazing people. I recently went under contract for my first home and have interest in going into my IRA for part of the down payment. I am doing this all on my own and don't have al lot of resources and people I can lean on for directions and answers to this new world I am exploring. I wanted to make sure I don't do anything wrong and end up with a big tax penalty so I called multiple CPA's in Nashville to ask for their advice. Only one group called me back and it was Glover & Glover. W
I recently got married and the team at Glover and Glover CPAs was able to help me save money and time as my husband and I combined finances/returns. 10/10 experience!
This is the second time we?ve had our taxes done by Byron Glover and we are very pleased with his services. He?s extremely easy to work with and has our taxes done in a timely manner. Would absolutely recommed to anyone looking for a CPA.
Byron and his team are true professionals. Byron is always following up with you to make sure you are completely covered. I would highly recommend their team for all of your tax needs!
It was not with just a little anxiety that we set up a consultation with Byron regarding a pretty intimidating IRS issue. However, Byron immediately put us at ease, worked us through a satisfactory response and then...did not charge us! It fell within his definition of a "free initial consultation". Wow, no sales pitch based on our discomfort. Just a professional assessment and recommendation. We have found our finance professional to be sure we will not get nasty-grams from Uncle Sam again... thank you!
I went to Glover and Glover this year for my tax preparation after being fed up with my previous CPA and their mistakes which led to IRS notices and unnecessary penalties. Not only was Glover and Glover able to handle my notice and abate my penalty, but also handled my tax return with a great deal of timeliness and precision. I was very impressed with the friendliness and professionalism that each member of the team carried themselves with and the ability to answer any question I may have come across. Be
Byron and his team are extremely knowledgable, professional, and great at what they do. He came to me as a referral and I am grateful to have him on my team. Glover and Glover saved me a significant amount on my taxes.
as someone who recently got into trading stocks i thought I should maybe have a CPA do my taxes the first year just so I would Have a Idea for what I was doing. So I call up G&G in "September" to maybe come in and maybe get a idea of a path I should take the following tax season. They said they were not working on next years taxes at the moment, which is fine because it's early but I wanted to maybe ask a few questions on what I would need the following year. I have made some decent money this year And
Byron is fantastic. He helped me resolve a complicated tax situation with my small business. And he did it on very short notice. He and his team exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend him.
I have always done taxes myself. However, my taxes got fairly complicated this year compare to last, since the baby came into the picture; wife started working; bought and rent out a house. Byron greeted me with a smile. After analyzed my last 2 years return and this year information, he ask for a couple more information regarding my wife's works. He also gave me some tips for how to set up to get the most return for my business. Within 2 days i was told my taxes was ready to be picked up and i will be able
Relocating to TN this past year, it's been challenging to find all new professional experts & resources. Byron was a great 'find' - accessible, patient, thorough & knowledgeable. Highly recommend the Glover & Glover team!
We just moved to Tennessee this summer and were looking for a local company to help us make tax season a little less painful. We found Glover & Glover through the internet and had a great experience. Everything was very professional, efficient and quick! Highly recommend their services.
Byron and team have been wonderful to work with. I have used them for a few years now and never worry about ensuring things are done well and on time. Thank you to the team. I appreciate the help and assistance. Keep up the good work
I got my taxes done here for the first time in 2019 and had a wonderful experience. I had bounced around for years before finding this firm. Although I moved out of state, I look forward to working with Glover & Glover for years to come!
I highly recommend Glover and Glover CPAs! They answered all my questions and thoroughly explained what needed to be done to address the filing of my taxes. The turnaround time from my initial visit to their completion of my filing was unbelievable! I highly recommend Glover and Glover CPAs and will definitely be a repeat client.
Byron and Sheila were great to work with. Very professiional. Their knowledge and skill in preparing my tax returns and solving tax issues was excellent.
We were new to town and Tennessee. Byron and the team made the transition easy and were very accommodating as we were getting settled. Super easy to work with and always available to answer any questions
Have worked with Glover & Glover for years. They are extremely knowledgeable, always up-to-date on tax rules & regulations. I trust them completely and highly recommend their services.
Very unfriendly receptionist telling me she can?t answer any questions (wasn?t tax question just if they provide the service I?m looking for) and they are not taking new clients anyway. Rude. Hope you?ll never need new clients.
Incredibly organized, knowledgeable and helpful! Had our complicated business tax situation resolved this year by Byron and team after moving from Florida.
I have worked with this team for the past few years and really value their thoroughness, ease of doing business, and professionalism. I would highly recommend Byron and his team!!
I have worked with Byron for years- he is always available to answer my questions and pricing is very reasonable. I would highly recommend.
Highly professional,knowledgeable and coordinates efficiently with investment and legal advisors. Have been a client for 20 yrs and yet to be disappointed.
Said they are not accepting new clients. Why would a legitimate firm ever tell anyone that. Obviously they will never get my business and I will always tell everyone to never use them.
Very pleased with the prompt service and friendly communication. New customer will continue to use them
Byron reviewed the return and responded quickly!!!
Excellent firm to deal with!
The very best accountants in Tennessee
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.
