Nuance has been wonderful to work with. Nick, Sara & Christa have always been available, on top of their game and a pleasure to work with. I appreciate all the help and advice they have given to me for my businesses.

Been with Nuance Financial since Day 1 of my business opening over 6+ years ago! I trust their expertise and guidance. Eddy and his team are always there for me when I have a question or need something. Go with the BEST...go with Nuance Financial! You will not be disappointed. Highly recommended! 5 STARS says it all for me!

We have been with Nuance for 8 years. So grateful for their care and concern for our financial needs.

Sara at Nuance is amazing! She is not only a trusted professional, she is so proactive. It feels like she is always looking out for my business and for me personally. Thankful to have the opportunity to work with her!

Absolutely fantastic experience with Nuance! They are incredibly easy to work with. When I first approached them, my previous accountant had left a mess, but Nuance stepped in, cleaned everything up, and made the whole process seamless. Highly recommend!

I work directly with Sara from Nuance, and she is incredible. She is very responsive and always willing to jump on a call to explain things further if needed. I often make requests a few times a week, and she handles them promptly, often completing them by the end of the day with a friendly response. It has been nothing but an absolute pleasure working with her and the Nuance team. Highly recommend!

I've used Nuance since I opened my business in 2022 and couldn't be more pleased! They are excellent at providing prompt responses and very helpful when financial questions come up. They also handle my payroll which has made things very efficient. Highly recommend!

Was new to the bussiness world and Nick has helped me step by step. Filing for an S-Corp to save me more on taxes and answering all of my questions fast, my experience with Nuance has been great so far. Gives me peace of mind knowing my taxes are being handled by some of the best!

Nuance is so great to work with! They have done a wonderful job helping me reorganize my small business accounting needs and they do so with confidence, up-to-date knowledge and utmost professionalism. They are easy to reach when we have questions, they answer our questions in a very professional and timely manner and we truly feel that they are looking out for us and our business. Most importantly, we no longer feel we are paying more than our fair share of taxes, as we have felt with prior accounting firm

The whole team at Nuance is great! They handle my payroll and all of my Quickboooks as well as end of year taxes. Their process is simple, affordable, and reliable. They really watch out for their clients best interests. I primarily work with Eddy and Sara and all of my questions have been handled in a timely manner. Usually within a day! I have referred Nuance to many other small business owners looking to outsource their bookkeeping so they can focus on what they are best at.

Nuance Financial has proven to be a solid choice for my business. Sara is great to work with; detailed, prompt and stays a step ahead of me and my team.

I reached out to Nuance looking for a new CPA for my business, I setup a time for a consultation and Nick never called me. Clearly too busy to take on new clients if they can't even keep their appointments. To me this is a sign to avoid them!

My experience with Nuance Financial has been nothing short of amazing. Their team has done a great job keeping my books and taxes in order and me informed. Highly recommend!

Love working with Nick and Jess . They take so much off my hands so I can focus on my business. They have extremely good communication and are so good at what they do. I have referred multiple people in confidence!

I hired Nick back in Dec to take care of my small business accounting needs and he has been fantastic in every way. He is attentive, easy to reach, extremely responsive, and professional. I have recommended Nick/Nuance to anyone who will listen! I could not be more happy with the service I've received.

Have enjoyed my experience so far- it?s nice being able to sit back and know that my business finances are being taken care of properly. A couple of people I have especially enjoyed working with is Sara and Rebecca, they are always extremely friendly and super helpful.

I love Nuance Accounting! I have used them since 2017. The customer service is beyond exceptional! Nothing is too big or small for them.Nick is super responsive to my questions. It's great working with a business that has the same moral values I have.

I have been working with Nuance for 3+ years now, and I have been extremely happy with their services. I own a small business, and they have taken the huge burden of dealing with the accounting side of the business off of my shoulders. They have helped me reclaim countless hours of my life. Prior to hiring Nuance, my accounting was typically something that was put on the backburner, and I was always scrambling and stressed to complete it. Nuance has such a great system that takes the stress out of the p

Working with Nick & his team is amazing. All the stress that accounting can be on a small business - Nick took that all away. We have been working with Nuance for 4+ months so far & the team has already brought valuable recommendations to better our business. I look forward to working & growing with Nuance!

We have nothing but great things to say about Nuance we work the most with Sara and she has been so great to work with!! Thank you Nuance team!

Nuance has been so wonderful to work with. Very creative and helpful with suggestions as to what I need to be doing to prepare for the next year! They give me ideas and guidance and its very important to me for tax preparing. Eddy has been absolutely wonderful and patient with my company and I could not be happier with the services I receive. On a personal side they are so pleasant and kind I absolutely adore them!

Working with Nuance has been one of the best decisions our company has made. Relatively speaking, Nuance has been way more proactive than the other firms we've worked with. Prior to Nuance, we'd worry about our books being done right and waste time and money correcting mistakes. With Nuance, I feel like I can sleep at night! I look forward to continuing the partnership with Nuance as our company grows. I highly recommend Nuance for your business as your tax and accounting partner.

Nuance has been so easy to work with! They make managing my new business a breeze and took something off my plate?so I can focus my attention on building my business

After having an incredibly frustrating experience with another accountant, we were pleasantly surprised to stumble upon Nuance Financial. They have treated us with nothing but respect and are always (and I mean ALWAYS) around to help with any questions. We run a small business and I can't begin to tell you how less stressful it is now that Nick and his team are taking care of our payroll and financial planning. Nick and his entire team are detail-orientated and always looking out for your best interest. The

Nuance is the absolute BEST! I am not tech savvy, and they have helped me SO MUCH! They are quick to respond to every question and concern I have (& believe me: I have a lot!). I really appreciate having up-to-date books (instead of trying to get my books in order at the end of the year...and not remembering most of it). I truly believe Nuance is one of the strongest aspects of our company.

Nuance Financial has been great for my companies to work with on our bookkeeping and tax needs. They are always available when you need something, and get it done in a timely manner. I would strongly recommend any business owner in need of their services they provide to give them your business, you won't be disappointed. Thank you to the Nuance Financial Team for all you do for us.

Nuance Financial has been everything I had hoped for, and more since starting with them about a year ago. Nick, Ed and their staff are extremely friendly, prompt, and definitely know their stuff. They allow me to do what I need to do, and that is run an insurance agency without having to worry about taxes, accounting, payroll or bookkeeping. I strongly encourage anyone running a business to let Nuance Financial show you how they can help.

We recently switched to Nuance for our business's accounting needs and are extremely pleased. They make running a business smooth and have cut my time on accounting tremendously. I went from reconciling each month and working on payroll personally to no longer needing to perform those tasks as Nuance is now completing those tasks I dreaded. We are paying about the same price as our old accounting firm and are receiving double the services. Thank you, Nick and team!

The Nuance Tax and Accounting team are the absolute best out there! I run my electrical business and the nuance team takes care of everything else this has been a huge relief for me.Nuance handles all my bookkeeping,payroll, tax planning and tax filings all under one roof. It was a relief to finally find an accountant that was knowledgeable,personable and always available. They have saved my butt numerous times! I would highly highly recommend Nuance tax and accounting to any small business!!

If you own a small business, you owe it to yourself to have Nuance take care of your accounting, especially if you're just getting started. They make it ridiculously easy so you spend your time building and growing your business instead of wasting your valuable time in little details that don't add value.

Nick, Eddy and the entire Team at Nuance are impeccable. It is a pleasure to watch masters excel at their craft. They are an asset to all small businesses they serve. We at Shield Advisory Group are fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate with them. Keep up the great work folks!

If you're hesitant on the decision to outsource your accounting and tax work, Let this be your decision maker. I have been in business for 8 years and have cycled through multiple accounting firms who have given empty promises and never followed through with what they said they were capable of doing. I have been working with Nick and Eddy for 4 months now. Nick has done more for my business in the last 4 months than any firm or individual has been able to do in the last 8 years combined. These guys are resp

As a business owner, having a great accountant and bookkeeper is important to me. Nick and his team have been nothing short of AMAZING since I started working with them. I'm so impressed and grateful for their knowledge, personal assistance and timely responses. I recommend Nuance Financial to everyone I talk to!

I have loved working with Nuance Financial! Nick and his team are quick to answer any questions and provide a lot of knowledge in the area of taxes/accounting. It is so nice just trusting them to take care of the financials while I focus on what I do best, photography while they take care of the money side of things. I definitely recommend them!

Nuance Financial is one of the most personalized experiences you will get. They really try to learn your business and understand exactly what you do to offer suggestions and guidance in helping you run your business. If you are looking for someone who goes the extra mile I would highly recommend Nuance Financial. Not only did they cut my accounting bill in half they provided me a way better experience than previous larger firms that I had worked with.

Nuance Financial is a second to none in the industry. I have trusted Nuance Financial with my business as well my personal book keeping, payrolls and the end of the year taxes and as been a really pleasant to deal with. Nuance team is really professional, friendly and knowledgeable? I highly recommend Nuance Financial !

We are extremely impressed with the team at Nuance Financial Tax & Accounting. Everyone we work with is so attentive, helpful, and always supporting us as we navigate and strategize our business and personal finances and taxes. Moving to Nuance Financial is one of the best decisions we've made for our businesses.

I am a small business owner and Nuance Tax & Accounting has been absolutely amazing to work with. They have cleaned up my accounting, set up a comprehensive tax plan to help me get my taxes paid in on a monthly basis, executed all of my payroll reporting, filed all of my business and personal taxes, helped me with budgeting and cash flow, and they keep my financial life in order. I now no longer have to worry about all of the financial/compliance issues and I can 100% focus on my business and what I am re

Very knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and very efficient. By far the easiest tax experience I have ever had! Nick is very communicative and responsive, Kris is also very responsive, easy to work with, and diligent on my month to month activities as well. Very happy with Nuance!

Nuance Financial is the accounting firm you will wish you found earlier. Previous accountants I have worked with did an OK job but mostly just collected a check from me near tax time, or when I needed advice, without really trying to optimize my tax situation. Nuance is completely different. They have taken a very active role in my family's financial/tax planning. They handle payroll and bookkeeping for our businesses, our rental properties, and our personal income. They are constantly on top of things, an

Nuance has been fantastic to work with. We had a previous accountant that made some very serious mistakes on our taxes, and Nick has been unbelievable with helping us to get it all straightened out. It takes a lot of stress off us as small business owners. Highly recommended!

Nuance serves as my outsourced business accountant, and so far have been extremely helpful and professional. They have taken the time to explain things when needed, and have done everything, and more, that I?ve asked very quickly. I highly recommend Nick and the entire team at Nuance financial.

Nick and the team at Nuance have been amazing to work with! Finding a good CPA has been one of the most important parts of running a successful business. I went through three different CPAs over a short period of time before I found Nuance...who Iv'e been with for almost two years now. They really go above and beyond and I know that I can fully trust them. I would highly recommend them to anyone, whether you are local or out of state. Seriously, don't think twice!

The team at Nuance Financial is fantastic! As a small business owner, I am constantly learning as I grow. These guys are always just a quick phone call or email away and happy to help however they can! Thanks again for getting me on the right path, I look forward to growing with you!

I have no financial tact or knowledge whatsoever. But I love my business! The amount of relief I felt handing all my financial and accounting needs to Nick and Sara was incredible and they have been nothing but wise, patient, and understanding with me. I still have so much to learn, but their coaching and work ethic has been incredible to see and experience. We love you guys! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO!

Hiring Nuance to take care of my business financials has been a game changer this year. Instead of spending so much of my time stressing over managing my business's finances, I'm able to focus on the things I love and grow my business with the time I'm not spending bookkeeping. They're very organized and always willing to help when I have questions. I would (and have!) recommend Nuance to anyone!

I wish I could put fully in a review how amazing this whole team is. Nick, Jo and his whole team are so incredibly helpful. They have helped us in so many aspects of our business. From the purchasing process, to starting a business, taxes and helping us keep tabs on everything along the way they have been lifesavers. I don?t have to worry about my payroll or accounting, they are just done right every time. They are very responsive, take their time going over all of our concerns and Jo even helped us out rig

Nuance takes care of all of my business accounting and tax preparation needs. They also handle all of our employee payroll and subcontractor payments. Great guys to work with! They are honest, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I highly recommend Nuance Financial.

Nuance Financial has given me the freedom to focus on my business and what I do best. Nuance has taken over my entire monthly accounting which has allowed my business to grow as well as stay on track of my spending and taxes. They have been a life saver for my personal finances and my real estate career. I highly recommend Nuance Financial.

Nuance Financial is amazing! After extensive research trying to find an accounting firm that could handle all of my companies I found exactly what I was looking for with Nuance Financial. Their staff is very knowledgeable, and their customer service surpasses all of my expectations. I highly recommend Nuance Financial! Thanks for everything Nuance Financial!!

Jess and Nick (and the whole nuance crew!) have been an invaluable resource for mine and my husbands business! I cannot recommend them enough. Incredibly kind, punctual, talented and professional people to work with! Would give 10 ???S if I could!

The entire team at Nuance has been fantastic to work with. They are diligent in responding to any questions we have and they truly want what is best for our business and are great resources to make that happen. They have been a great asset to our team. We trust them completely and woukdnt trade that for anything!

I'm an owner of a small consulting group and Nuance Finanical Tax & Accounting has 100% come to my rescue! I started off using Quickbooks Self-employed and quickly made a mess of towards the end of the calendar year and Nuance helps unravel every detail, clean my books, filed my taxes within the first 2 months of service. I'm so happy! This was the best business decision I've made to date! Special thanks to Nick, Dan, Gina, Sara & Raven for all of your excellent work!

Been with Nuance since day 1 of my business. Kristine and Nick have been fantastic to work with. Thank you!

Nick and the Team over at Nuance are amazing. As an entrepreneur I have worked with a number of accountning firms and Nuance by far has exceeded all my expectaions. They have a proactive approch to accounting which is exteremly difficult to come by these days.

I run my own interior design firm. Taxes and Quickbooks are so complicated and Nuance has the answers, are quick to respond and make me feel confident in the 'books' behind my business. I would have absolutely no idea how to do any of this, nor should I be if I want to grow my business...so they have literally been the best investment I have made in my business. I refer them to all my friends and neighbors and I am super picky about my relationships with my vendors...usually not many are up to snuff for

Sara, Eddy, Kristen and the entire team at Nuance Financial absolutely hit it out of the park every time! They are very professional, easy to talk to and highly skilled and educated. I trust all of my bookkeeping, accounting, and tax planning and filing to their team. I wish I have found them years ago. Thank you all for how easy you make everything!

Excellent customer service and a very patient team all around. Working with Dan getting me setup was very reassuring. He answered all my questions and helped guide me thru the process with ease. Nick prepared our tax documents thoroughly and efficiently and ultimately helped us save a lot of money all around with his guidance and expertise, which we couldn't be more grateful for. I would highly recommend this team for any accounting needs!

Nuance Financial Tax and Accounting is a great company that provides incredible services and value to all of their clients. I personally use them for my business, and I have also referred them to several of my clients, friends, and family members, and they always exceed everyone's expectations. If you are looking for strategic planning and tax services, and/or if you are looking to free up a lot of time, there is truly no better firm in town!

Nuance Financial has been instrumental in helping my business grow. It's great to do business with a company who cares about your success. The team at Nuance Financial is amazing.

I had a great consulting call with Nick Meester for FREE. He showed up as a fiduciary, knowledgable, and someone who I can trust with my finances and strategy. I was really happy to see that his advices were purely in my interest instead of trying to force their business on me. Thank you Nick!

We came to Nuance Financial almost a year into business just before tax season. Their timeliness and attention to detail helped when we needed it most! We trust Nuance as if they were apart of our team Highly recommend!

I love these guys. I can't imagine doing business without them. They take care of the financial details so I can do the work of this ministry. In starting our non-profit, Beyond Limits, the absolute best decision we made was to partner with Nuance Financial as our accountants! Fast, professional, honest and a joy to work with. I never thought I would actually ever enjoy getting a call form an accountant but these guys are different! They feel more like a partner in ministry than a financial service!

I am so satisfied with the service Nuance Financial has provided us. They have explained everything to us along the way and are always available and helpful when I call in with questions. These guys deserve a 10 star plus for the amount of positive impact they have had on our small business and family. Thank you Nuance Financial!

I found Nuance through a random YouTube video and after a preliminary phone call decided to go out on a limb and hire them to work with me on two of my businesses. Thus far, I couldn't be happier. They've worked diligently to get us setup, despite one of the accounts being a total mess due to poor bookkeeping practices before their time. If the start is any sign for what's to come, I'll be working with these guys until I croak. To the Nuance Team - keep up the great work, and thank you for all of your help!

We used Nuance Financial as part of a due diligence process when considering the purchase of a small business. Nick and Eddy were extremely helpful and knowledgeable, providing valuable feedback throughout the process. We'd definitely use them again.

I was searching for an Accounting Firm for a while for my small business with doing lots of research on other companies and what they could offer before deciding on Nuance Financial. My accounting team: Eddy, Devin, Dan and Joel (and more!) have been stellar in getting my financials up to date and now setting me up for success! They made suggestions which I have implemented in order to better serve myself through my business. Every single charge is accounted for through QuickBooks with breakdowns on where y

Nick and Natasha are awesome! I couldn't ask for better support for my business. They take the stress out the accounting aspect which is so important to running an efficient, professional business. They are quick to answer questions and respond, very knowledgeable, friendly and professional.

The whole team at Nuance Financial is excellent! They have been essential to our business. They have created a personalized plan for our taxes and are always there when we have questions!

My payroll was forgotten for 7 weeks this summer, and I received no apology from anyone. My pay check for the next period hasn't been processed either despite Nuance receiving my hours on Monday. I was told to check their website, which I had done already and realized there was no paystub for the latest pay period. No apology offered or options from them to increase transparency. I have no way to ensure I'm paid on time. If they would even just reply to emails confirming they received my hours, that would s

As a new small business owner, switching to Nuance was the best decision I've made! I can't say enough good things about Nick & team! Highly recommend!!

Before using Nuance Financial Tax & Accounting my companies financials were a mess and unorganized. Now that I have let them take over, I can focus on my business and what I am truly good at. They are also a good company to stop in and grab a coffee. I would highly recommend them to any small business owner. Thanks Nuance!

Nick and the folks at Nuance are incredibly helpful. We have a unique business and sometimes need special attention for our books and Nick doesn't blink an eye to do what needs to be done. He is very knowledgeable and we wouldn't do business with anyone else.

Nuance Financial has been the life boat to my Window Cleaning company since starting with them last year. They are always readily available to answer any questions, and they continually try and find ways to improve my bottom line. They have allowed me to focus more on my strengths as a business owner, allowing me to grow my company more than I thought possible. Thanks, you guys!

Nick of Nuance does the taxes for our law firm and some other small businesses - I am not sure how we got by before we hired Nick. Top notch accounting at a very affordable price.

Staying in front of the tax monster has been a battle for me for 10+ years. In 3 months Eddy and Nuance changed all that for me. They helped me rip off the band-aid, get caught up, stay ahead of future liabilities, and I never fear I am falling behind. As a successful small business owner it is nice to know someone has my back so I can focus on my clients, employees, and future. Thanks!

I operate an in home childcare and preschool in Lakeville. I was using an on line out of state payroll company to handle my payroll, quarterly taxes etc. unfortunately the results were not so terrific with huge discrepancies. I called Nuance and was given courteous, reliable feedback right away. Mind you this was the week prior to having W2?s sent out. Ed did an outstanding job with the amount of time given with excellent results. I?m very appreciative of this help and would recommend this company in a hear

Rob, Nick and Ed are great. They know people, business, and taxes. I am very happy they represent everything I need when it comes to not only taxes, but also small business in general. If you are a small business owner, and are you're not using Nuance Financial, you're missing out on a wonderful opportunity (and you're probably paying more to Uncle Sam than you need too).

Nick and Linda swooped in like financial fairies and cleaned up the accounting and tax nightmare I created. A huge weight has been lifted and it brought me so much peace to see it resolved. Place your small business in the hands of Nuance Financial and you won't regret it. I'm looking forward to being a long-time customer.

Very easy to work with. A quick email or phone call gets answers usually instantly. For the person that knows the tools but not the books so much, Nuance is priceless even though they are priced right.

Nick and the team are always helpful. They have help me by allowing me to stress less about tax worries and allowed me to concentrate on running my business. I cannot recommend them enough to anyone new, they are the team to help anyone with a small business.

1 star, only because I can't give zero. Everything went great until communication ceased and Nuance not only refused to rectify the situation but entirely refused to communicate or even discuss what happened and what we can mutually do from that point on. They wouldn't answer calls, return emails and went completely dark causing our business damage as well as stress. I sincerely hope they remedy whatever caused this internally, but I will not ever recommend them for any service. We are a small business and

I have only been affiliated with Nuance for a few months, but they have impressed me greatly. Attention to detail, follow through, quick responses and genuine caring are all part of what I have received in working with them. They even check up on me when it comes time to get tax paperwork filed rather than let it go through the cracks. Great service.

Nick has been a lifesaver helping me clean up a past accountants mess. He is excellent at corresponding and communicating in a way my brain can understand. Highly recommend!!!

If your looking for firm that will not only do your accounting and payroll but treat you as a part of their family this is that company. Nuance financial has been with our company from day one and we couldn't have been happier with our decision. If your company is in need of an accounting firm look no further. Thanks Nuance Financial for all of your hard work! Josh Attree

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.
