The instructor of this two hour class, Nick Wiley, was the best! The subject matter was new to me, but I wasn't made to feel intimidated by it at all.

I was with Kernutt Stokes (and companies it was prior to Kernutt Stokes) for close to 40 years…read more They dropped me with only a few months prior to the tax deadline.

I'm a small business owner (that is, the owner of a small business, not a small person who owns a…read morebusiness) and I've been shopping around locally for accounting services for my company. I haven't had the pleasure of working with the firm Kernutt Stokes, but I did call to inquire about their services and had a great 40 minute conversation with Mr. Hoyt, who is a partner at the firm. To make a long story short, I ultimately learned that Kernutt Stokes is probably better suited for larger or more advanced companies than for providing the services such a simple business as mine requires at this time. Even though they would gladly work with me, I was gently advised that I could possibly find someone more tailored to the more simple needs of my fledgling business. I greatly enjoyed speaking with Jeff and really appreciate the friendly, genuine, and honest discussion he had with me, especially for such a long time. Should my business grow to the point that their services are more warranted, I will definitely be doing business with them!

Kind of tells you everything you need to know. ;) EDIT: from what I've seen on other reviews, they're back to the "not-selling" claim LOL
