We are thinking of changing our CPA and would like to meet with you. What is the first step?
We suggest that you call or email us to set up an appointment for a complimentary 30 minute consultation to determine if a relationship is appropriate. We have enjoyed long-term relationships with our clients, and would like to develop that type of relationship with a new client.

Do you provide your tax clients with a booklet to help them organize their information?
Yes, every January we send our clients tax organizer booklets which include all of the information from the previous year already filled in. Our clients find the booklet very helpful, and use of the booklet reduces our time spent on preparing the tax return.

My business and I are not located near Westlake Village. Can you still help us?
Yes, we can. We have clients throughout the country, and in fact our largest clients have never been to our office. With current technology, it is common to work efficiently even though we are not sitting across from each other. For example, our QuickBooks clients send us their QuickBooks file electronically, we work on it, make whatever changes are necessary, and return the file to them electronically. This approach is efficient and has been very successful for our clients.
