I had some life circumstances that recently changed and Kent was able to flawlessly navigate through the challenges, answer all of my questions, and he is resourceful to quickly find information that he did not know off hand. He ALSO found several errors in my tax return from last year and he filed an amended return for me, and next week he will be doing my son's taxes as well. I came to the appointment uncertain about everything and worried a bit about figuring everything out, and I left with my tax return and amended return absolutely completed, all my questions answered, and very happy with Kent's work. I recommend LifeStyle Tax & Accounting Services 100%. They REALLY know what they are doing, and I am very impressed.

For the past two years, our tax person is never available outside of tax season, which leaves others not familiar with our tax account to respond. And the responses have been short, rude, and non-effective. As a direct non-response from my tax person and no one at Fax Tax willing to genuinely assist, I was fined fees this year because of the lack of willingness to assist and not providing with proper information!! We have a history of stellar tax payments. We will be finding a new tax service.

If I were an artist, this is the first place I'd go--especially around tax time. What I love about Fox tax is that they truly live what they do. Not only do they help artists on the business logistical side, but also in promotion as the space also functions as a gallery. Stop by an opening and you will be pleasantly surprised by the high quality artist on display. More than likely beating will be spinning and drinks will be available for a nominal donation. When I was there on Friday, there were lots of new parents as well, which was nice to see. Thankfully they left the strollers at home and just had the kids in the baby carriers. Considering the artist on spotlight was Ink, who is famous for crazy murals around town, I'm sure the kids got an eyeful!
