I Have been with Alan for many years. As an accountant he remembers you and all your details from year to year. Actually almost freakishly, and I love it. It makes feel like he cares about his clients. His office staff is always very friendly. I like that I can call him up with questions or problems and he always is calming and efficient with his response and solutions. It is hard to have someone to help take care of your business and he is the person... for me anyway. He is so good that I wish you luck getting an appointment.
Pros: dependability, security, efficient
Cons: Call early in the tax season for appointments, he fills up fast!

Ms. Sullivan is an excellent accountant. I like dealing with someone who takes the time to explain everything to me. Bridget Sullivan does this really well. All my questions are answered, my suggestions are taken seriously. I have confidence that my accounts are properly and professionally done. Ive had two friends switch accountants because of the excellent experience Ive had here.

Overall, he is a great accountant to have. If you don't need an accountant, he is also a great source to go to have your taxes done!

We hired this florist to construct many floral arrangements for center pieces that for a function that we were organizing. This company impressed us with the arrangements and their prompt delivery. The flowers were very high quality and the lady who put them together is truly an artist. She used some unique flowers to make some very unique designs that looked awesome. Their prices were very good, I thought that the final bill would be really expensive when I seen how good the arrangements were. They delivered the center pieces on time for the function and they lasted very well through the night. An excellent florist that is highly recommended!

More 8 months ago
The firm made some serious mistakes on my tax returns and it cost me dearly. The experience to fix the problems was not pleasant. I wish I could give zero star.
I later had all my tax returns prepared by them examined by my current CPA and found over a thousand dollars of missed deductions.
The fee was not that great. My current CPA charges only slightly more.
Below are my 2c to look for a good tax preparer:
1. Even if the tax preparer makes a mistake, it is ultimately your responsibility to get it right.
2. Make sure the tax preparer is an Attorney, CPA, Enrolled Agent, Enrolled Actuary and Appraiser.
The obvious reason is people have these credentials typically know more on the topic than people who don't.
A less obvious reason is professionals with these credentials are bound by some code or rules and even by law. Violation of them can result in diciplinary actions against them. In addition, the IRS's Office of Professional Responsibility's jurisdiction, as described by Treasury Deptment. Circular 230, is only over Attorneys, CPAs, Enrolled Agents, Enrolled Actuaries and Appraisers. Note that ABA and ATP are not on this list.
In case something goes wrong, your ability to complain to the professional associations and the IRS gives the tax preparer motivation to properly fix your problem.
Whereas you have little leverage working with a tax preparer without these credentials. When mistakes made by this firm cost me serious $, there was very little I could do.
3. It is one thing to see logos of professional associations on a firm's web site, it is another thing that the person preparing your tax has these professional credentials. For example, the National Association of Enrolled Agents (NAEA) allows non-EA members and even these members are allowed to use the NAEA logos. Although their website displays the NAEA logo, the person preparing my tax was not an EA.
It is important to check with the proper organizations your tax preparer's actual credentials. For attorney's and CPAs, the State Professional Regulations web site is a good start. For EAs, check with IRS. You should also find out beforehand your options if the tax preparer makes mistakes. The more you can do and the severe the consequence, the more leverage you have.
Pros: Has yet to be discovered
Cons: Unprofessional, bad advice, don't care about clients
