4/17/23 UPDATE: Robb…read morehas moved to the East Coast and still takes care of his West Coast people too.. I actually do pretty well on my own with taxes but always something odd comes up just when it goes well for a year or two.. For me, this year I realized I've been handling my federal disability annuity retirement wrong as I could have retired 5 years ago and just realized it as it's the year I actually planned to retire. It affects paying taxes or none, complicated with SSDI and possibly amending previous years... is it worth the hassle? Robb was awesome as always to spend time in a 30 min Zoom call to help me sort through things. It may not have seemed like a lot to him, but it definitely helped and reassured me in the direction I need to take and what is best for me and did it all as a consult without a fee.. He still takes time to truly care to help others. The East coast is lucky to have him and still happy on the west coast to be able to reach out! ____________________________________________________________________________

Robb is, hands down, the most competent, caring, responsive and honest CPA I have ever worked with…read more I spent months trying to find a good CPA for my small business after some negative experiences with previous accountants and tax firms. Robb has risen to the occasion. He is very responsive and timely, clear about what he offers and thorough with his responses. He is very knowledgeable and is now doing not only my personal and company taxes but our bookkeeping. He has made excellent recommendations for other financial professionals when I have asked and has even sat in on a few long conference calls with me when I've consulted with financial professionals he recommended. I am incredibly impressed. If you're looking for a competent, timely and responsive CPA, bookkeeper and/or financial planner, look no further. Robb is fantastic.

So, I used the web to set up an appointment using GoToMeeting, I selected 11 am this morning to…read morehave my appointment. I got a confirmation, and then two emails from the calendar confirming the appt, and an email from Lyle saying he could meet with me for 15 minutes. I didn't notice that the calendar appointments were set for 3pm, instead of my requested time. I sent 2 emails, with no reply, and decided to wait until 3 pm. As of this posting, (3:30pm) I still have not heard from Lyle, nor anyone else at Prepared Accounting about my appointment. No invitation to go to meeting, nor any word as to why my appointment time changed inexplicably. I guess I will keep looking for a good CPA.

Lyle met with us to discuss opening up a new business last summer. His introduction was clear, easy…read moreto understand, and super helpful. We ran into some complications and put the project on a shelf for several months. I came back to Lyle and Prepared Accounting as we began renovations on our commercial space and just in time for tax season. Despite being in full tilt for the April tax deadlines, Lyle took on our tax return and books management without hesitation and without judgement for being underprepared (my label, not his). He turned it around in record time, being sensitive to some of our other financial applications that needed our returns early, and stayed late with me one night to get me and the books up to speed. In short, I came to him with a late request, with weak documentation and preparation on my end, and he turned it around and delivered excellent service. I also found him to be extremely considerate, kind, and sensitive to the stresses small business owners feel in their early years. I will be recommending him widely in the area and returning for his services regularly. Prepared Accounting far exceeded even my most ambitious expectations for great tax and accounting services.
