This is my first time using a CPA. I was in a new situation with my taxes this year that involved a lot of gambling winnings. Gary was great, easy to get an appointment with, and very knowledgeable. He sat me down and went over every possible way for me to handle my taxes. He also was very humble and told me straight up that I could do this on my own without his services. With that being said I still did not feel comfortable filing for my self, so I still took full advantage of Gary and his team and they di

I had an extremely complex and frustrating tax situation that had been unresolved since 2021, involving international withholdings and a long delay from the IRS.

I recently lost my tax guy after having him do my taxes for over ten years. I was nervous and a little anxious about using someone new. A friend recommended Kondler & Associates and I am very happy with that decision. They took time to answer ALL my questions, and the filing of my taxes went smoothly and without stress. Even during the tax season, if I had emailed a question they replied back to me within a day. I'm looking forward to sitting down with them to discuss future retire plans. Big shout o
I made an appointment, but I didn't think I truly needed help because my situation was somewhat simple, although H&R BLOCK said they couldn't help me at all, AND wouldn't even give me any recommendations !!! After Kondler and Associates looked at my documents, it was confirmed that I was in no immediate need of help. I was very happy and grateful to be told that accordingly. Thank you Kondler And Associates for your honest trustworthy advice, I really appreciate it tremendously. You're Great! Especially sin

I haven't filed taxes in 3 years because I was afraid that I would owe thousands. That's what happens when I use Turbo Tax or the seasonal hires from the national chains like HR Block. Mr Kondler does tax preparation and book keeping for a living not just from January to April 15th so I felt confident walking in. He asked me questions that I've never been asked by the seasonal guys which helped me find legitimate write-offs that I didn't know was entitled to me. Not only am I not owing thousands but I w
Talked to Gary from Kondler to make sure my return was bulletproof for the tax year. He made sure to answer all my questions - some very technical and nuanced regarding professional status. At the end of the consultation he was able to quickly provide me the necessary documentation for my tax filing. He was able to clearly communicate everything from start to finish. I would highly recommend using Gary and Kondler Associates for any simple or complex tax needs regarding poker and gambling.

Gary helped sort out my W2s and other income quickly and efficiently. I plan to keep working with him and Kondler Associates for a long time to come! Highly recommend!
I had some very complicated taxes to do this year with 1099?s w-2?s and stock trades. Ray sorted it all out for me and my wife and got everything done in a timely fashion.

I had a wonderful experience with Raymond regarding my tax return questions. He provided exceptional, insightful advice and didn't even charge me. His assistance was truly first-class. Definitely recommend!

I look forward to working with Gary and this group for all my taxes in the future and would recommend them to anyone needing help filing their taxes!
Gary and his associates were very professional and swift in answering all of my questions. Made the entire process very easy!

Very skilled and knowledgeable, they can find the things others may miss. I even had them do some amended returns for prior years done by another accountant and I ended up getting money back instead of owing. I highly recommend Kondler 10/10.
A+ service from a great group. My business partner has known and worked with him for 30+ yrs. He suggested I seek Mr Kondler's help after my previous accountant fell ill. He picked up the case last minute and helped my brother and I with our taxes. I would highly recommend!

He is always thorough and quick to finish our taxes. We couldn't ask for anyone better. I highly recommend Kondler & Associates.
Kondler & Associates has been my CPA firm since 2019. In that time Zak has provided a wide range of tax knowledge to allow me to minimize my tax burden when possible. In particular, Zak has been an expert in all poker related tax law as well as knowledgeable in real estate, business expenses and depreciation. He also responds within a timely manner, even on April 15 concerning a future tax year question! In addition, I've spoken to Ray Kondler and other associates as needed and received timely and accura

I have to say this team was amazing!! Not only did they answer any questions and have answers without hesitation, it was a txt and phone call away ! It wasn't an office where it was just business hours contact only! Gary made me feel super comfortable with my tax questions since it wasn't my specialty and made sure it was okay to ask questions without feeling insecure about it! I highly recommend this team and the help I got provided for my taxes that got fixed for me !
I was helped with my 2022 taxes by Gary initially and then Ray when it came time to file. Both were very kind and helpful, walking me through a process I was afraid was going to be very difficult.

Have been using their services for about 7 years and they have been a great asset. Since reporting taxes in the gaming industry can be very complicated they have saved me countless hours of research and crunching numbers to make sure everything is reported correctly. I recommend Kondler & Associates CPAs to anyone in the gaming industry!
Been using Zak for about 7 years now, from the moment we did a consultation I felt confident in him and he has proven me right. Ive also met Ray a few times and I have nothing but positive remarks for them both. Very knowledgeable and professional.
I wish I could say I had an honest person from this firm to help me with the IRS when all I asked for and paid for was an extension. This firm was not able to produce proof that services were rendered. When I reached the IRS, they made it clear there was no extension done which in turn cost me penalties. This was dishonest of Ray.
Great experience working with Ray and Zak for the last 6 years ! They are very knowledgeable about various tax situations and provide excellent service. I don't stress during tax season anymore since working with their team. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Incredible Staff. Friendly and Insightful. I am incredibly particular and file multiple returns.

My situation was serious and overwhelming, especially being 64 yrs old. I was unsure at first about the entire situation but Ray assured me and everything turned out just fine. I HIGHLY recommend using his firm.
This was my first year doing my taxes with Ray and it could not have gone any smoother. His Expertise in Gambling/poker taxes are well worth every cent.
K&A have been handling my taxes for years and have always made sure I never pay more than absolutely necessary. They have been expedient and communicative every year and have always done right by me. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do my taxes as well as they do at K&A.

We all need a great core group of people to thrive in & through life: family doctor, dentist, lawyer, accountant, etc. My wife and I have been very fortunate to work with Ray & his Team for more than 15 years. The 1st giant thing Ray did for us was correct our tax returns from several years back done by another CPA. When Ray was done all of our income streams were set up correctly (corporations, partnerships, etc) AND we had huge $/credit moving forward. Ray knows our tax accounting goals: structure things

Excellent firm...very knowledgeable, super responsive and available. Special expertise in poker and gambling but broad range of capabilities. Ray and team are fantastic. Highly recommend!
I have been with this crew for over a decade now. They have helped me as a traditional employee, then poker professional, then as a digital nomad. I detest doing taxes, it just gave me a frustration headach. Now taking an hour to find all the information they need each year is about all that I must suffer through. I am delighted by the results each year and appreciate being able to call them up mid-year for strategies or paperwork I lost. If nothing else, being able to call their WSOP booth a temporary

We've loved having Ray handle all our tax concerns for the last few years. They are friendly and efficient, and I highly recommend their office.
just started working with Kondler & Associates and they have done a terrific job and made filing my taxes very easy and removed all of the stress i had leading into it.

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.
