Four years ago I had a challenging tax situation that I knew I could not do the math or fill out the forms correctly to complete. I received a recommendation for Sydney and gave him a call to explain my needs. He understood, took on the 4 year project and completed it perfectly. A great professional find for me and highly recommended for your CPA needs.

We've been working with Syd for several years for tax planning purposes. Have always been impressed with his professionalism, expertise, and congeniality. Syd has been very proactive with us over the past few years of tax law fluctuations (tax code changes, stimulus payments, etc.), even taking the time to meet with us mid-year to adjust our tax planning if needed. His recommendations have also led us to our trust attorney and our financial advisor, so his professional network is one more value add shoul

I found Mr. Highley about 2 years after my trusted CPA of almost 50 years, retired. He?s been as knowledgeable and professional, his office staff also very helpful and professional, always answering any questions promptly and usually available by phone. When unavailable or busy with other clients, they are quick to return calls. They?ve been wonderful to do business with, I would highly recommend Sydney Highley, and his office, to family and friends.

On May 24, 2024, I contacted Highley Sydney H CPA to inquire about their services for my business taxes. During the call, the accountant was extremely rude and dismissive. They refused to assist with my business taxes without providing a clear reason. This unprofessional behavior caused significant stress and delayed my tax preparation process. As a business owner, I expect a certain level of professionalism and courtesy, which was severely lacking in this interaction. I would not recommend Highley Sydney H
