Nancy is an amazing business owner. She's the most caring and authentic woman I have met. We worked with Ever and he's very knowledgeable and caring as well. I would recommend Nancy Rangel Insurance to everyone I know and I actually do. Don't think twice if you want the most competitive price and A+ service.
Very very good customer service. Ever never delays a response to any of my questions even out of town he has me covered. Ryan helped me when ever was out of town and he is also helpful. It doesn't end there either the girls in the office very awesome and professional. Sandra helped me with car insurance policy and she is very helpful. All in all I could say it over and over they are great. Sometimes in life we have issues going on so dealing with a company as helpful as them helps to know you can count on t
This review is specifically for Sandra Arias. She is exceptionally professional, understanding and amazingly patient with my complicated insurance policies. She communicates very clearly, has tremendous knowledge in her field, attentive and follows through on all action items. I am very happy with Sandra and will continue with this company's services simply because of her great customer service. Thank you Sandra and please keep up the great work.
I can't speak enough of all the help that I have received from Nancy and her team. My needs were clear: I wanted to save money and ensure that my family was taken care of. Nancy and Ever went above and beyond my expectation in comparison to the previous insurance companies that I have dealt with in the past by offering me exactly what I needed to feel safe. Nancy and her team were very transparent and walked me through all the details and various questions that I had. Since then, I've gone to Nancy and her
LOVE This agency. Got my life policy and car insurance with them! Always making sure I have the best coverages not just keeping me legal for the road. Always looks for ways to help me save more money and sometimes even upgrade my coverages if it makes sense. Everyone treats me like family. They're the best agency I've ever had insurance under. I never have to worry about anything I literally just give them a call and they're there to help in any way possible.
I am very pleased with the hospitality I was given. State Farm has been beyond helpful, Ever , was beyond profesional. It's kind of like a whole other family since I have switched insurance. I can honestly say I now feel so relieved. All questions and concerns have been answered always. I've never been left with anything unanswered. I got an auto loan as well and it was not a headache like at dealerships.Thank you State Farm! I'm very thankful.
I had been with Dan Marshall (since 2002) who originally ran this office and retired recently. We never had a single problem in all those years except for Dan constantly wanting to take us to lunch or dinner. Not really a problem just good old fashioned great customer service. Then Nancy and her group started running the office and they don't have a clue what customer service is. I was quoted a price on ins for a new car and I have been charged $48 more per month than the quote so after 3 monthly EFT's of a
I have never had a bad experience with my agent Ms Monica, she is very professional, attentive and knowledgeable. Whenever I talk to her I feel at ease with any questions I may have been unclear about and she breaks everything down in lamens terms for me to understand exactly what I need to know. I can honestly say since I have to include insurance within my business I would rather my policy come from Rangel.
I have recieved 5 star service from Nancy Rangel and her staff. I recommended Nancy R to all my friends and family, no doubt they will definitely be on good hands. Very professional and great communication, I couldn't be any more satisfied.
I have been with NANCY at State Farm this last year after having a disappointing 20 years with another major Insurance Company. It is wonderful to once again have service and knowledge available. I have found this invaluable to say the least! Thank You Nancy, Amy and Staff!!! Nancy Dick

I've been with State Farm for many many years and have always had the best service. Since Nancy Rangel has taken over the Hunting Beach office the service has gone straight down hill. I am actively changing agents.

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.
