Honest, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and an all around good guy. Bill Ryan is the best! He makes…read moredoing taxes easy and actually enjoyable. Hard to believe, I know, but it's true. I've been using him for about 8 years. Over the years, I've found him to be extremely responsive in communication. Anytime I have a tax question, I email him, and he gets back to me within a couple hours. He also is very personable. My wife and I have some laughs with him every year when we see him. Bill is also really good with independent contractors. I'm a real estate agent myself. He had very helpful tax strategies, such as setting up an S Corp for my business that I never would have thought of. I've also reached out to him with tax questions for my clients and he is always incredibly generous with his time. There are not many people within any industry that I recommend as enthusiastically as I do for Bill. Do yourself a favor and call him -- You will not regret it!

Last weekend was out first time going to Bill or any other accountant to do our taxes in a decade…read moreor more, as we've been using Turbo Tax for years. However, 2012 was a crazy year for us as we re-located from NJ back home to MA, changed jobs, rolled over a 401K and had multiple stock sales. So like every recent year, we bought TT again this year and were basically satisfied with the answers, although we owed $4100 to the IRS and $681 to MA we were getting $3990 back from NJ. That seemed reasonable given the income from last year. Still we wanted to double check our work on TT and we also wanted to establish a relationship with an accountant who could also provide advice going forward as to how to best position ourselves for next years taxes. My wife and I are almost 50 so we also were also looking for someone to validate the positions we had taken financially to prepare for retirement. We found Bill on Yelp and even though we live in Boston where there were other five star rated accountants, we liked the fact that he was praised for both his tax services and his financial advice. Also, he was noted as having a friendly and easy going personality (Which some of the other five star accountants defiantly did not have according to their reviews). We didn't want to start off a potential long term relationship with any one who was a dick, no matter how brilliant. Bill has a nice location in an office park in Quincy off Willard Street. We arrived on time and so did he. We liked Bill immediately as he was engaging and friendly and not stuffy at all. He even had Red Sox World Series memorabilia on his walls which immediately signaled to me that he was A NORMAL PERSON. Anyways, Bill found that we had made a mistake on TT by erroneously listing our stock sales. As far as TT was concerned, no red flags popped up because the error was inputted incorrectly by us. TT didn't know and we didn't know either, but Bill knew. The error would have been costly. Instead of the figures above, it turned out that we actually only owed the IRS $798! Our NJ refund was increased by over $200 and our debt to MA turned into a refund of almost $200. All tolled, Bill saved us almost $4500. After his fee of $275, we still saved well over $4000. We obviously enjoyed our first meeting and will schedule another more comprehensive meeting to evaluate our goals and current positions after the tax season ends and Bill is less busy. Bottom line here is that Turbo Tax is a great product, but nothing beats discussing your tax obligations with a human being. We would HIGHLY recommend Bill Ryan to anyone looking for an exceptionally competent accountant/financial planner in the Metro South or even in the Boston metropolitan area. THANKS BILL!

This will be our 3rd year with Ron and his firm handling our joint tax filings…read more Our finance/tax situation is not super complicated but it's complex enough that we can't easily use software or rely on some storefront type walk-in service. We made the switch to a real professional CPA years ago and will never go back. We switched to Ron after our prior CPA shifted our work to his junior minions who dropped the ball in a few key areas. Ron has been fantastic. My wife has mainly owned the properties we've lived in and she's always had non-trivial tax questions related to real estate. On my end I own part of a MA S-corp and the 50% shareholder status means I get a complex IRS K1 form each year. The variable K1 "income" also means I need to be super careful about staying on top of estimated quarterly tax pre-payments for the upcoming year. Ron is the person who makes all this a sane and sensible process. I also travel a lot for work and prefer to work with professionals who can handle communication at a distance -- never an issue swapping signed PDFs with Ron or communicating via email when I'm not in BOS.

I had an extremely frustrating and terrible experience with AGS tax group. Do NOT get your taxes…read moredone here. After an initial meeting with Olga Sevidova that went well, I sent her all my documents and a request for an additional document to be filed that went unanswered. She requested a meeting, then failed to confirm the meeting date/time and sent a zoom invite 3 minutes prior to the meeting (which I of course missed) and said this was their office policy. When we finally met to review the tax return that she had prepared, there were glaring errors right away. Lev Agranovich (the owner) had to step in to make the corrections needed. Instead of taking accountability, Olga then proceeded to bill me for an additional 100$ for the extra form she claimed I had asked for last minute, when in our documentation I had requested it a month earlier with no transparency on extra cost. She became rude, defensive, and unprofessional in her emails and told me it was my fault because I had missed her virtual meeting (that she had failed to confirm). I finally agreed to make the extra payment to just be done with the process, yet she was unable to provide a final tax document with all the corrected edits, refused to answer my email follow ups and just kept asking for payment. Despite her incompetence, Lev (who was cc'ed on all the communications) did not step in to help mediate the interactions. I have never had a professional interaction with this degree of poor communication and poor product quality, and the inability to provide a final document for review prior to payment. She then proceeded to tell me I would be billed regardless and threatened a collection agency should I not pay for a tax return that I was unable to review, and that had prior mistakes made. I finally had to send AGS Tax group a certified letter documenting the inadequate work and refusal of payment before they finally provided a completed tax return for my review. This was a huge inconvenience and headache with many hours on my end wasted sending them all my documents and I will never be returning here. I have never dealt with this level of unprofessionalism and lack of accountability. You should find another place to prepare your tax documents.

My tax problems caused me a lot of sleepless nights and anxiety over the last two years. To say…read morethey were a bit complicated is an understatement. I was a bit like a deer in the headlights, frozen and unable to deal with my tax problems. I had no idea where to turn for help. In talking with my cousin about it, he mentioned his lifelong friend Matt Previte who he's known for over 50 years and I'm glad he did. After speaking with Matt, I felt a sense of relief that there was someone who knew what to do and how to help me resolve my tax problems. After filing a power of attorney and digging into my problem with the IRS, Matt and his associate Natalya discovered the IRS did not have a 2021 tax return on file, even though I believed my previous accountant had taken care of this for me. They got to work and prepared my 2021 tax return, despite having missing information. Once my 2021 tax return was processed by the IRS, they were able to set up a reasonable payment plan with the IRS to pay my back taxes. They were also able to get about $36,000 in penalties and interest removed! I can't say enough about Matt and Natalya. They were very proactive, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. I thought my situation was hopeless. They proved it wasn't. They were able to resolve a complex multi-year tax problem and save me a ton of money to boot! I can't thank them enough.

From the very beginning, they reassured me, explained everything clearly, and guided me step by step on exactly what I needed to do to fix the issue.

Having someone who truly knows what they're doing made all the difference, and the peace of mind I have now is priceless.

I consider myself an extremely resourceful, natural problem solver, but I had gotten to a point where I simply didn't even know what questions to ask, and was starting to break my golden rule of never becoming emotional about a business problem. I've been meeting with George and Dominic, who are among the most engaging, pleasant people (not just attorneys) I've ever met. I come from a family of attorneys and bankers, and have built a rather narrow, framed opinion of both fields. I'm happy to say that this firm is simply the cream of the pedigree crop, that has opened my eyes on how real estate is and should be done. George and Dominic walked me through everything that I need to consider, were very clear about my options, provided suggestions, and most importantly, helped me understand the financial considerations of whatever path I choose. I highly recommend this firm for whatever real estate business you are engaged with in Boston. Simply beyond expectation.
