We found Essential LLP when we were looking for a more "hands on" accountant/firm for our small business. They were listed as a recommended agency through our Wave accounting software.
In our experience, many accounting firms don't want to work with small businesses - but Essential was responsive and helpful from Day 1! Sylvia set up an appointment with us right away and we met with her and Mr. Park to discuss our needs... and this was in the rush of tax season! They are professional, responsive, and they know their stuff. What was incredibly helpful was their ability to immediately get to the meat of issues of our small business and field all our questions, such as those related to business structure (S Corp, etc.), payroll reporting, good bookkeeping practices, reclassifying expenses, and maximizing deductible expenses on our tax return. They are a full service accounting firm!
Essential LLP is fairly priced and they do great work. I hope this review helps other small businesses find this great accounting firm! read more
