I had a very disappointing experience working with Rajiv.

When I reached out to him for help resolving the issue, he repeatedly failed to respond to my emails and messages. I had to chase him multiple times just to get any kind of acknowledgment, and even then, there was no real accountability or follow-through. Tax preparation requires accuracy and responsiveness, especially when problems arise, and unfortunately Rajiv fell short on both. I would not recommend his services.

She took time to get to know my situation and has always been on the lookout for ways I can save $$. She really knows her stuff and to this day, I look forward to my annual visit to her office.

Even at tax crunch time, Liz and her staff are responsive and I can tell you that, you won't get that anywhere else. Now let me talk about price. Is she "cheap"? Nope. Is she crazy expensive? Nope.

I looked at several websites and then finally stumbled on Liz's. I reviewed her website and read through everything and was really impressed with what I saw. What stood out to me the most is the information on her homepage. Here is one thing... "I am not your fathers tax accountant. This is not a cold business of just numbers and law. I've spent a lifetime building relationships and working for the finest people I know, our clients." When I read that I knew that this person had a heart and compassion and would be able to help me. As I mentioned that was several years ago and I've gone to her every year since. Liz is kind, she is helpful, and she digs in and gets to know you so she can do the best job for you. But most importantly she's uber smart about tax law and she rolls up her sleeves and gets to work. I highly recommend her... And have to many people!
