Horrible. So horrible. I don't know if it's just a geographic issue, or what, but I'm pissed! I've…read moreused H&R Block in different locations before and I've never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a scheduled appointment. My appointment was at 2pm today--on my lunch hour. The objective was to get in and out on a very uncomplicated tax filing. The guy who was assigned to work with me greeted me and said: "I see you're on time, would you like to drop your information off or wait?" At the time, I assumed waiting meant a few minutes while he wrapped it up with the other client. Then he proceeded to tell me that if I didn't want to wait anymore, to let him know. 5 minutes passed, then 10, then 15, then, 20--next thing you know an entire 33 minutes passed, and he didn't even bother to see if I was still there. I jumped up from my seat infuriated and told him never mind, and that I was leaving. I feel bad for folks who live in primarily urban areas. They're treated differently, for sure! I chose this location because I work near here. These associates have no sense of time. Do they believe because we're minorities that we don't work? Possibly! I'm going to make a fair assumption and say that everyone who was sitting in that lobby waiting on their scheduled appointment probably had something better to do with their time. Damn shame.

I opened my first small business a little over a year ago and at the beginning didn't give much…read morethought to filing taxes. It seemed simple, come on April 15, throw a stack of papers on the accountant's desk and all is taken care of, right? WRONG. After talking to a friend (also a business owner) I found out that there is much more to it, and that what I've done, or rather failed to do could become very costly if not promptly rectified. After contacting Gary, in what seemed to be the 11th hour, I explained to him my dire situation and that I was entirely overwhelmed with the whole process. He was extremely understanding and very patient. My first consultation on the phone lasted over an hour, even though it was late in the day and way past business hours. He went out of his way to accommodate my schedule and meet me on the weekend to sit down and devise a plan for handling my situation. He explained to me about quarterly taxes, payroll taxes, sales taxes, etc. He showed me deductions I didn't know existed and explained why some deductions aren't advisable. We discussed the differences and benefits of filing as sole proprietor vs LLC vs Corporation. There was so much to learn. Over the next few weeks he worked closely with me (via texts, emails and over the phone) to resolve my situation, get me caught up and file year-end taxes. He worked with IRS to reduce penalties for my previously unfiled paperwork. After the tax rush was over, we met again and this time we talked for a while about my financial situation, my business goals and how to best structure my business and plan for the future. I highly recommend Gary to anyone, especially if you're a small business start-up or just need some financial planning advice. He is smart, passionate about his work and is very easy to work with. He truly cares about helping his clients no matter how small or insignificant their problems may seem. He will travel to any (reasonable) destination to accommodate your needs. Our last meeting took place at my local coffee shop. I felt like I was hanging out with my old friend and planning my future over a good cup of java.

Nailesh's service during my parent's business as their accountant was terrible. My elderly parents…read morewere rushed into opening a business under his accounting and taxation services. He did not explain them the details of the corporation he was opening for them, neither did he open the correct type of corporation for them. Throughout his services he kept misguiding at every occasion although making sure that he was charging for all such services which they paid every time in full. The worst was after the business was dissolved (which he did not do correctly and left many loose ends with IRS and State Taxation departments) he was absolutely not willing to support them any further with responses that they had to give to IRS. I would not recommend him for any services. If you would like to spend your money wise, do not take his service.

I used Nailesh as a CPA for my 2016 tax returns. After interacting with a number of other tax…read moreprofessionals in the area, I can confirm he is one of the best Middlesex County has to offer. Between 2014 and 2016, I visited or called a number of tax professionals along the Route 1 corridor throughout Highland Park, Metuchen, Edison, and Woodbridge. Each year, I looked for assistance with my income tax returns. Unfortunately, since I don't have a particularly complicated situation, many CPAs dismissed me as a customer. I cannot tell you how many tax professionals denied me their time, telling me they only work with individuals with complex situations; they kept recommending I head over to H&R Block or just use Turbo Tax. The tax professionals who did accept my business in 2014 and 2015 completed my tax returns in as little as 5-7 minutes, just skimming over my documents and submitting returns without even having a conversation with me as a client. As someone with a couple of tax-related inquiries who wanted to make sure I proceeded correctly, I knew I had to find someone new in 2016 who would take me seriously as a client. Nailesh did a wonderful job. When I called his office, he scheduled a same-day appointment with me and met with me for an hour. We held a one-hour initial consultation in which he reviewed my paperwork thoroughly and asked me a series of questions which immediately proved his thoroughness, his precision, and his commitment to his customers. Additionally, as questions arose throughout the process of preparing the returns, Nailesh texted me to ask follow-up questions to ensure the accuracy of my returns. While working on my 2016 return, Nailesh noticed an inaccuracy that carried back two years to my 2014 returns (likely a result of the rushed and haphazard service I got at other tax preparation offices). He amended a number of my state and federal returns, gaining me not only piece of mind but a steady stream of small (but not unappreciated!) checks with some extra money I had not been anticipating. At the end of the process, he invited me in for a final appointment to review my returns and explain his calculations, a step in the process which I very much appreciated. He also charged fair and reasonable rates, especially considering he spent three times as much time with me as many of his competitors in the area would have! If you are looking for personal income tax preparation, I cannot recommend Nailesh any more highly. I look forward to using him for tax preparation in upcoming years, as well as recommending him to my immediately family and friend circle.

Mr. Perry and Associates are absolutely phenomenal! I have been a client for several years after…read morebeing referred by a friend, and I can honestly say that referral was one of the best I've ever received. Mr. Perry is extremely knowledgeable, professional, thorough, and genuinely cares about his clients. Most recently, I was faced with a tax audit claiming that I owed approximately $6,000. Mr. Perry took the time to carefully review my situation, break down my taxes in detail, and prepare a thorough letter explaining everything to the appropriate tax authorities. The audit was ultimately dismissed. What impressed me most was the time, attention, and expertise he brought to the situation. He didn't just handle the issue--he made sure everything was properly explained and supported. Having someone this knowledgeable in your corner when dealing with a stressful tax matter is invaluable. Mr. Perry is extremely well versed in tax laws, but just as importantly, he operates with integrity and treats his clients exceptionally well. It's difficult to find someone who combines this level of knowledge, professionalism, patience, and genuine care. I have been very satisfied with Mr. Perry and Associates over the years, and after this experience, I appreciate them even more. I highly recommend Mr. Perry to anyone looking for a CPA they can truly trust. Five stars are not enough!
