Our firm has worked with Melissa for two years now. She initially rescued us from several years of…read moreawful service from a financial company handling our books, payroll and tax returns. We were receiving letters from the FTB and IRS regarding mishandled returns. Melissa patiently and methodically helped us address the state and fed and carefully refiled about 3-years worth of returns on our behalf. At the speed of government it's taken almost the time we've been together to clean up our tax records. In the meantime we've filed 2 returns with her. We're amazed by the tax advice and the research she has done on our behalf to get us the best possible outcomes and to plan ahead instead of after the fact. Melissa is a straight shooter, tells us like it, both good and bad, and advocates for us. She has prepared both our corporation and personal taxes and neither is easy. If you want shortcuts, she is not your person, but if you are looking for solid tax advice, forward thinking planning and solid tax returns, we highly recommend Melissa for your business and/or personal needs.

She is not only incredibly knowledgeable and detail-oriented, but she genuinely cares about her clients. Over the years she's helped me navigate everything from routine tax filings to complex business and personal financial decisions -- always explaining things clearly and making sure I understand the "why" behind the tax law and her recommendations. I never feel rushed or embarrassed to ask questions, and I always come away feeling more informed and confident in our decisions. She helped us successfully navigate a difficult long-term tax issue with the IRS -- and thanks to her thoroughness and persistence, we didn't have to pay for a mistake that wasn't ours. She consistently brings us new tax information as it becomes available and explains how it could affect us -- both as a business and personally -- along with smart ways to take advantage of benefits or minimize any negative impact. She helps us plan ahead in ways that have saved us stress and money! Her fees are more than reasonable given the quality, care, and peace of mind she provides. Having been through several CPA's before finding Melissa, I can tell you that it's rare to find someone who is this skilled and proactive. If you're looking for a CPA who is trustworthy, experienced, and truly invested in your success, I can't recommend Melissa highly enough.

Second year, she forgot to add deductions for minors. Oops, she forgot ! Businesss taxes had errors again . IRS made the corrections. We get it mistakes happen. 3 rd year-Bev filed our taxes with an old business address. In Northern California, how she made this mistake is beyond us. She also forgot to add the minors once again as deductions. We received notification from the IRS that the taxes were incorrect AGAIN. They made corrections for us. Once again, we get it mistakes can happen. I guess we should've learned by this year, but sometimes it's just easier to continue with who you're working with. Our mistake. 4th year, she sent reminder notice to my husband and his ex-wife. Oops once again mistakes happen. I decided to have Bev do taxes anyway. Surprisingly, there were no mistakes last year other than sending me the wrong reminder card. However, while sitting there getting our taxes completed ..... I had made a joke that I was frustrated with my husband and that I should have a yard sale and sell his stuff. She was the only individual I told this to. It was a joke. I felt that we had a nice conversation while she did my taxes, and I also felt like I had turned a leaf with her because normally when we would go into her office, she often rolls her eyes and makes comments while doing taxes. We even talked about all her little frogs and how she came about to collecting frogs it was actually I believe her mother who originally collected frogs. Sadly, I heard from three separate individuals asking me if I had really had gotten rid of all my husbands belongings at a yard sale. ( Confirmed they heard it directly from you) Boy oh boy did you run with that! Bev, it seems that you like to converse and gossip and it's not appreciated. What you did I believe was unprofessional & it was actually damaging. You should be ashamed of yourself. You are not a nice person. We put up with years of you making errors on our taxes. We continued to go to you out of convenience since we live locally in Napa. As well as being small business owners ourselves, we want to support other small businesses. I guess we should've stop using you the very first year. We will not be using your services this year so when you're waiting for us at 12 noon tomorrow, go to lunch instead. Happy tax season and next time don't gossip about your clients. Be professional! Learn from this.
