No matter how many questions I have, they always take the time to explain everything clearly. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and knowledgeable tax services. I have a single member LLC and I've always found it difficult to get my taxes done by the tax deadline. Now I'm ready before it. Takes a ton of stress of me. And if I recall correctly I found them through yelp and liked the reviews. Thank you!!!

I was nervous to do my own taxes after my tax situation got more complicated with a house purchase and filing jointly with my wife but she expertly handled all my questions and saved me much more money than if I did the standard deductions. I don't dread the tax season anymore (as much) and it is thanks to Vivian. I went to two other CPAs for quotes when I first started looking and she charged the cheapest and fairest amount.

Chris at FlexTax has been my tax advisor for about three years now, and I can't recommend him…read morehighly enough. He's incredibly thorough and detail-oriented - he double and even triple checks everything to make sure your return is accurate and that he has all the right information. He's also very responsive and flexible with scheduling, which has made it easy to fit tax meetings around a busy workday. Chris really shines with more complex situations. He specializes in startups and equity compensation (ISOs, RSUs, etc.), as well as investment portfolios, so if you work at a startup or have a more complicated tax situation, you're in great hands. He takes the time to walk through everything, explains complex issues clearly, and makes the whole process feel much less stressful. He goes above and beyond by looking at prior years and making amendments if necessary to put you in a better position for future tax years. I originally started working with Chris based on a friend's recommendation, and after three years as a client, I'm very glad I did. If you're a startup employee or founder, or anyone dealing with equity and investments, I highly recommend Chris at FlexTax.

I'm surprised Len isn't already reviewed on here so I'm adding to review for him.
