Customer Reviews

SKJ & Company came through with flying colors for us and last minute too. All communications were clear with super easy to use instructions. Adding a business to our personal taxes didn't slow things down either. Seke was so fast and friendly. I'm so glad I found him and his quick super hero number crunching skills! Great to find a Shoreline CPA. Thank you!

I had been using Turbo Tax for years (one job, one house, one kid - how complicated could it be, right?). Well, when I realized that somehow I had messed up my 2023 taxes, and needed help completing my 2024 taxes, I sought SKJ out and could not be more thankful! Within minutes - MINUTES - of showing Seke my 2023 return, he identified the errors I had made and then charged me a VERY reasonable rate to redo my 2023 taxes, recovering almost $2K in refund. And when I didn't have all of the documents I needed

I have been working with SKJ CPA for over 8 years, and his service has been exceptional. He brings expertise in multi-state K-1 filings, stock vesting, and managing foreign entities. He responses on time and explains details. His work is always thorough, precise, and highly professional. I trust his guidance completely and look forward to continuing our successful consultation and tax services for many more years.

Has been working with SKJ CPA firm past good number of years and could not be happier. The CPA is professional and reliable and very much up to date with the latest tax laws and regulations. His service has been helping us greatly on tax preparation, financial planning and just random complex account questions that comes up as a small business owner. I have recommended him to my friends network.

We had been using same CPA for over ten years. We were little worried and hesitant to change to a different CPA. But SKJ CPA helped a lot so transition was very smooth. Our business have been operating for 13 yrs and as an owner at the end of the day we were looking for consistence, quick, and accurate CPA. SKJ CPA is the one the one we were looking for. Also, not just SKJ CPA and their team is always on top of it! On top of that his responses to any of my questions are very quickly and answers correctly.

I had the pleasure of working with Seke in the past 7-8 years, and I cannot recommend his service highly enough! As an active duty Army guy, I've relied on Seke's expertise for years, both during my overseas tours and while living on the East Coast. No matter where I?ve been stationed, Seke has always provided top-notch service and advice. What truly sets Seke apart is their genuine dedication to his clients. He is always available to answer questions, respond quickly, and go the extra mile to provide peace

I have worked with several CPA's before working with Seke. but I can confidently say that Seke is the best. it has been a pleasure working with him. Seke is very professional and always responds quickly and correctly. I highly recommend Seke to everyone who needs professional help.

Seke is the best CPA we have ever work with. He understands how restaurants work and will guide us on ways to lower our tax.

We've been working with Seke for over 8 years and our experiences have been nothing but fantastic. We needed to find a new CPA which was not an easy road but he made the transition so smooth. He is very up-to-date in tax policy changes (which gotten worse since the pandemic), always ready to walk extra miles for his clients, very generous with his time to help us out to understand and to build up a better strategy on our finance and to prepare for the tax return more efficiently. Also, His service is in a v

He is very professional and kind. His all staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. I saved lots of tax per his recommendations. Biweekly payroll service is very helpful and saving my time well.

Needing quick help to correct my 2022 1040 and after not getting the response from other firms I spoke to, I fortunately found Seke Jung at SKJ. After just a few minutes reviewing my records, he found the fix, re-prepared and prepared the amendment right in front of me and turned my $33k tax bill to a $215 refund. Happy to report Seke is my new CPA!

The CPA knows well about all the accountant issues and tax. Well equipped with even mewly updated knowledge. Quick and reliable service. Both English and Korean service available. I really appreciate and am glad knowing this company. The larger parking lot is located back of the building, and there are rather tight parking spaces front side.

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.
