Customer Reviews

I?ve been working with Chilobe for over 10 years. He has remained a constant resource during that time, starting during my medical residency. Not sure how I did my taxes before I began working with him. He?s always been incredibly responsive and kept a personal touch even as his business has grown. I strongly recommend using his services.

I?ve had Kalambo Consulting file my US taxes since 2019. Chilobe and team are prompt, send me reminders about all the information I need to send to them on their own at the starting of the year and file my taxes promptly. Chilobe is also extremely knowledgeable and is willing to help answer any of my tax related queries throughout the year and not just during tax season. Highly recommend working with them.

Chilobe's the absolute best! He's been doing my taxes for 5+ years. Being both an employe and running my own business with my own workforce, things can get complicated at times. Chilobe is always reliable, and very knowledgeable. When I was trying to establish a retirement account, I was getting inaccurate input from a Vanguard advisor. Chilobe conferenced with the advisor in real time and saved me from disaster. I've referred numerous colleagues over the years and will continue to do.

I am a physician and relatively new business owner (consultant) in the New York area and have been working with Chilobe since 2020. I have found Chilobe to be incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and accesible. He has been a tremedous resource and answers all of my questions -- which has been immensely helpful as a new business owner. And he always does so with a friendly and patient demeanor. I strongly recommend Kalambo Consulting for your accounting and tax needs!

My wife and I are both physicians and have been using Chilobe to do/file our taxes since we were in residency back in Houston, TX. We have since moved to Tampa and now living in Phoenix, AZ for the last 7 years and still use Chilobe. Prior to Chilobe we were using H&R Block. Though never seemed to have an issue, there is something about Chilobe and his way of making sure everything is accounted for to get the best return; never got that feeling with H&R Block. We have complete trust in him and referred fam

I am one of the owners of Cali Coffee, a drive-thru coffee shop in South Florida that started in 2016. My business partner Craig and I will have four locations by September 2022, and over 20 in the next three years. We plan to franchise and have over 100 locations in the next 10 years. That being said, we became extremely overwhelmed with keeping track of our sales, expenses, and creating reports for potential landlords and investors. Chilobe took us on less than a year ago and has made our lives SO much

I have been with Chilobe since residency and I must say the transition from residency to attending in private practice and then to locums would have been very stressful but Chilobe is so fantastic at what he does that I didn?t have to worry one bit! He?s careful, complete, and timely in everything he does and he truly cares about his clients. I?m now starting my own Interventional Radiology practice in Houston and whenever I have a question or need assistance with the many of the services he offers, he is q

I have been with Kalambo consulting for the last 5 years. I am a physician who?s schedule can be all over. Mr Chilobe is very responsive and very accessible. I have had nothing but great experiences with Kalambo Consulting. Mr Chilobe is not only a fantastic CPA he is a even better person.

We have worked with Mr. Chilobe Kalambo for more than five years in tax preparation and could not be more pleased! Mr. Kalombo is extremely detail oriented and provides an annual tax checklist at the beginning of the year to help us better organize all relevant expenses and documents. He and his staff are efficient and timely. He is a great communicator and makes himself available whenever we have questions. However, what we find most important is his professionalism and personal integrity. Inviting someone

We have been working with Kalambo CPA for over 10 years. They have managed our personal and business accounts and have done a phenomenal job. They are very fast to respond to any and all questions and provide year round accounting support. They are extremely knowledgeable and always ensure our accounts are properly managed. We have recommended them to several friends and colleagues who have also had great experiences. They are highly recommended!!!

I've been in practice for 7 years and Chilobe and his team have been doing my taxes since I was pediatric resident. He and his team are informative, patient, and extremely helpful in making sure my taxes are filed in an accurate and timely manner.

Chilobe and his team have been helping our drive thru coffee company for the past few months and they?ve been nothing short of amazing in every way. The amount of attention and level of detail they show is top class all the way. We are in another state, but it feels like they?re right across the street. Thanks for everything Chilobe!

Such a wonderful experience working with Chilobe and company. So responsive, thorough, and attentive. Will be recommending him to many friends and colleagues!

We?re so grateful to have connected with Chilobe and team. With warmth, expertise and professionalism, they helped us with our tax filing. We will certainly be back next year!

Awesome team! Chilobe is very responsive, efficient, personable and will go above and beyond to take care of you.

He has been doing my business and personal taxes for 4 years now and I am very pleased with his services.

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.
