We started to do business with Ramirez Accounting for about 5 years ago, and all of these years working together is like working with family. All of the staff is always willing to help with all of our needs.
Checking process very efficient. Adds you via phone # so you can see when you will be attended. Didn?t wait long maybe 15 mins max. Rigo helped me and my husband with our taxes. He explained everything & you can tell he works with great ethic! Went pretty fast and first time coming here and won?t be the last! Recommend coming here especially if your looking for a great bilingual or Spanish speaking firm!
Great service! They are eager to help and I recommend them whenever I can.

I recommend this firm & staff to lead you in the right directions? SS
best place to get your taxes done at Rose is the best very professional and i would not go anywhere else.
I had to amend my tax return and didn't know where to begin but I found this small CPA firm on the IRS website. I really had no idea what to do but they handled everything for me. Appreciate the work of Rigo who was kind, patient, had an answer for all my questions and was able to have everything completed the next day. They are in south Austin which is the opposite of where I live and work but I will be going back whenever I need assistance. They have earned my trust and business.
This is the second year i do taxes for my business. Rosa the owner is knowledgeable and explains everything. I will be a long time customer for sure.
I have used Ramirez Accounting to file my taxes for the past three years. Rigo was very responsive, reasonable, and helpful throughout the whole process. 10/10
I have been a client for five years and can say I?ve only had positive experiences with Ramirez Accounting, attentive staff, usually very little wait time and no issues at all with my tax returns. Thank you for being an asset to the community!!
I received notary services here and they were fast, friendly and affordable. I will be coming here for any other notary needs in the future and will recommend them to others.
I was referred to Ramirez by Tax Professionals of Austin, who said Ramirez could help me with an unusual tax situation. The folks at Ramirez said they would have to refer me to someone else, but could file an extension for me in the meantime for $30 (this was in April). They charged me $40 for the extension and referred me back to Tax Professionals of Austin... Who referred me to Ramirez again.
Sari was great! Really thorough and professional experience from start to finish.
Friendly and efficient staff. Rosa Imelda Ramirez is very knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend them.??
Great service, efficient and professional service from staff.
Great Bilingual Staff. I did my personal and business taxes with them
More than One hour to do a simple notary, unacceptable!
Professional, accurate, and courteous. Above all, trust in there capability.
Fast friendly service
(Translated by Google) The service they provide is extraordinary. Very friendly, accurate and honest. They will always explain to you with all detail, for you to know exactly what the process is and they will ask questions to make you double confirm everything to not make any mistake. Have been a customer for many years now and I highly recommend them. They also speak Spanish (100%) if they need it, it is better that they explain all the details of this type of process to us in our language. In this office

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.
