We had a really good experience working with Edward French. His pricing is very reasonable, especially for the quality of work he does. He's super knowledgeable and took the time to explain things in a way that actually made sense, which we really appreciated. He also works very efficiently and made the whole process quick and stress free. He's our new tax guy moving forward. Thank you Ed! read more

Edward is kind and knowledgeable. It is a fair price and I will go back. Answers any questions!

Will return again! Hes an awesome guy, i wish i could've gone to him earlier, but he is straightforward with advice and whats the best next steps are. read more

This was the first year taxes did not stress me out because I finally worked with a professional, instead of trying to do it myself online. Edward was very efficient, personable, and I would highly recommend his services. I am so grateful for his fair pricing and how painless the process was filing taxes this year. I will definitely be returning next tax season. read more

Ed was very easy to work with. He was able to handle my small business and personal tax needs They were able to provide the services of a big company with the more personal feel of a small business read more

I received a letter from the IRS about missing info on my 2023 return and advising me that I owed them $18,000. I've been using TurboTax, they evidently don't ask for all the information necessary. I found Edward's number on Yelp, called him and set up an appointment. After dropping off all my information, and after he looked everything over, he redid my 2023 taxes and filed an amendment. He found I wasn't taking the losses I was entitled too and wound up owing the IRS zilch, nada, nothing. I, along with my adult children will be using Edward French in the future. And by the way, he charged me less than I paid with TurboTax. read more

It was such a pleasure meeting and working with Ed. Last year, I used a premium software with live help, but it was super time consuming and stressful. This year, with a lot on my plate, I was looking for affordable and reliable help. Ed was super efficient but thorough. I left within the hour with everything completed! He charged me essentially the same amount I paid last year for the software. I also got some amazing money-saving advice as well. I will definitely continue coming back for Ed's help! read more

I'm updating this review because it's so rare when we receive consistent service from anyone and it should be acknowledged when it is. Ed deserves 100 stars because I've been going to him for maybe 3 years now and every time is so special. I now live in the Bay Area but I will still make the drive just to see him once a year for my taxes because he's genuine, helpful, caring, and keeps his promises! My sister goes to him, my partner goes to him, and I really want to encourage anyone who values quality professionalism to work with Ed! - trust me, you won't regret it~ read more

Ed and I had a great chat during our initial consultation. Affable, wise and thoughtful come to mind. Many thanks Mr. French. I look forward to working with you in the future! read more

I wasn't used to a business in a home but once inside, you couldn't even tell. The service from everyone inside was nice. Everyone was very welcoming and glad to see us. I've always done my own taxes but I didn't want to take a chance after selling and buying a home in the same year. Mr. French made everything easy and charged me less than what most people would charge. I can guarantee I'll be back next year. read more

Class act. Knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I needed some help with estimating my taxes for this year and Edward not only did that, but because it didn't take much time on his part, he did so without charge. I will recommend Edward to anyone needing tax preparation help, or any service that he offers. read more

After checking out the reviews that Mr. French has received I decided to visit him. I had tried Turbo Tax and didn't particularly like what it provided me. I had a few complicated issues that I wasn't sure that Turbo Tax had correctly handled so I went to Mr. French. He was a very amiable and professional gentleman with a sense of humor and very intelligent. He had me in and out in half the time that I had spent on Turbo Tax. The results were much better as well and he was very knowledgeable about the issues at hand. I give a FULL and hearty recommendation. Give this man a try. He truly is an honest soul and he is there to help make a stressful time (tax season) be as uncomplicated and stress free as possible! read more

I phoned Edward on October 14, panicing because my extension for taxes was due the next day. I found him very reassuring and putting me at ease from the very first phone call. He worked me in the next day and my taxes were filed on time. He was a God-Send! I left there relaxed and so well served in such a short amount of time. I received a refund instead of paying the huge amount I thought I owed. My refund came to my banking account withinin one week. Thank you, Ed for your cheerfulness, positive attitude, efficiency, knowledge and excellent service. I will use you for my taxes in the future and will share my great experience with my local friends. read more

First time filing my taxes with Edward French Accounting and the whole process from setting up an appointment to walking out with my refund information was a breeze. I called to get a quote, scheduled an appointment using his online calendar, showed up and he was ready to go, he gathered all my information and made sure everything was entered accurately. I was in and out in 35 minutes. He's very knowledgeable, quick, and has such a friendly personality. Definitely recommend Edward French Accounting! Thanks Ed and I'll see ya next year :) read more

Filed wrong sales tax, logged me out of CDTFA several times by putting wrong password several times. while trying him for bookkeeping services, every month he switched the vendors to different categories, the most unorganized and not detail oriented person. Be aware and stay away! Horrible experience! read more

Mr. French was professional and funny. I did an in-person meeting and the entire process too less than 40 minutes. The process was broken down for me through each step. Highly recommend! read more

If you're looking for a tax and accounting professional who is honest, knowledgeable, experienced and a genuine pleasure to work with, Ed is your man. I highly recommend Ed French's bookkeeping, payroll and income tax services. My husband and I had moved from Southern CA where we had worked for several years with an exceptional CPA who had a masters in taxation and decades of experience in business and personal income taxes, as well as wealth planning, so my standards of what made a quality professional in this area were high. After moving to Clovis we decided to look for a local tax & accounting professional because we prefer to do business in person and to have a local professional to consult with as needed throughout the year. My first phone call with Ed was 45 minutes. He was very personable, helpful, insightful and even though his schedule was already getting fully booked heading into tax season, he was more than accomodating to fit us in to his schedule and help us out as new clients. We needed help with our personal income taxes as well as some bookeeping help and advice on a new business venture I started in 2020. I have found Ed to be knowledgeable when it comes to tax issues and topics, to be proactive in his approach and thorough in his work. He also has a genuine enthusiasm in helping entreprenuers and in small business in general. After getting to know him more over a few months I have found Ed to be a genuinely good guy who is honest and really cares about helping his clients. He knows his business and you can tell he loves what he does. He's continously learning and improving, which to me is the mark of a professional who is dedicated to his/her craft, because in life and business, you never stop learning or improving. I'm grateful to have found Ed. read more

Try him ! You will be satisfied Sincerely, Jose& Charlotte Gonzalez read more

Wish I could give 0 stars. My husband and I reached out to Edward for our taxes and the return he provided was inaccurate and did not include many deductions we were owed. So we respectfully declined his services and told him we were going with a different accountant. Our new accountant saved us thousands. Edwards response? A spew of what I can only assume are drunk text messages. Unprofessional. Slow. Untrustworthy. As you can see in the screenshots we did not engage in his attempt to provoke us. What did he do next? Sent a fictitious $200 bill to collections. We never signed a contract with him! Now we have to go through a whole dispute process. Save yourself the headache and money and go to a different accountant. read more
