Al Michel was doing my personal an business taxes for years, I wondered why I was not getting replies to my emails regarding this years tax prep. Come to find out the company, and Al, were so unprofessional as to not notify long time customers that he had moved away to Colorado! How unprofessional to leave customers hanging! read more

For going to another "major/famous" commercial company for years, we tried a smaller - independent company through a referral. We are SO glad we did! Not only was it half the price from the get go, it was extremely fast. We had our taxes done by Arcadio Jose. Straight shooter and knowledgeable. Pretty much said we can call him all year, because we paid for his services the whole year! (It comes with the service). If you've done taxes in 2016, there will always be the following year to save and get some money from our government. :) read more

Francisco & Michel - Tax Services Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Rom has been my CPA for many years. He is very thorough and takes the time to work through difficult situations. I recommend using Rom for tax planning and tax preparation. He is a busy professional so getting in touch earlier in the year is important. Although he works with so many other clients he manages to remember everything and stays organized (with the help of his awesome office team)! read more

This review is long overdue. I first came here in 2017. While it's only been 2 plus years, I feel like I've been a long time customer. I say this because each time I have a tax related question throughout the year, I call Al Michel and he is always ready to help me, answer my questions and educate me as well. The other day I asked him a real estate tax related question. He told me what he would do. I was satisfied with our conversation. I was surprised when he called me back a few minutes later (which I wasn't expecting) to give me additional information. I give him extra credit for that. Arcadio is very knowledgeable too. He is there to help during tax season. The staff is friendly as well. read more

After 10 years of filing taxes myself with software, I worked with Rom and company in February of 2022 for my first ever CPA adventure this year. The entire process was extremely smooth, all I had to do was get my documents together and the team did all the heavy lifting. Everything was done efficiently and remotely and saved me much driving time and health exposure. I thought my tax situation was relatively complex, with salaries, investments, a home office, a side hustle, and a few accidental IRA changes that needed correction, but Rom & company crunched through it efficiently and made me feel comfortable and confident about the entire process. My charged fee was also very reasonable, and I'm happy to say that I'll definitely have more business for the team in the upcoming years, and will be recommending the team for many of my friends in similar tax situations in the future. read more

I have used Francisco and Michel for years to file my taxes. Excellent service and personal touch with their business. Highly recommended!

I have been doing my own taxes for years, using software. In 2018, I needed an experienced professional because I had the sale of a home and other changes that made me nervous about filing on my own. Through word of mouth, I found out about Francisco & Michel in Elk Grove, CA. A friend of mine was also looking for someone to do her taxes because she missed filing the previous year, so I told her about them. She had her taxes done first and was very pleased with their services. When my turn came, I also had Al Michel work on mine. He was professional, courteous and responsive. The front office staff were also pleasant and easy to work with. I am so happy to have found them. I highly recommend Al Michel. read more

I cannot say enough about Al and Arcadio! They are the utmost professionals, pleasant, and make taxes (ugh) a pleasant experience. I used to do my own taxes, but, have found that their expertise pays for itself in all the deductions and intricacies I would miss, and very importantly, the peace of mind that the taxes are done properly. read more

My wife and I met with Mr. Michel to review out tax liabilities resulting from the sale of our home. He was very patient with us and answered all of our questions and provided various courses of action we could take. Very satisfying meeting and we left with the knowledge needed to move forward. I look forward to a continued relationship with this firm and highly recommend him. read more

We've found our new tax man in Arcadio Jose! He works with F&M CPA part-time, primarily on the weekends and evenings. He's a straight to business, no BS type of guy which is cool because who wants to deal with their taxes longer than they need to. Fees are extremely reasonable (way more affordable than going to H&R Block) and he's extremely knowledgeable and welcomes any questions. He gave us his business card which has his cell phone number and told us to give him a call anytime we have questions. He also offered tips and taught us a few things about the California tax system. I'm very happy with the service he provided and would recommend him to anyone looking for a new tax accountant. read more
