John Schaaf and his entire team are amazing! Professional but still human and enjoyable to work with. With complicated business and personal tax needs, John is always there to guide me down the right paths. I find him aggressive (in a positive way) but still legal in all his tax saving strategies and he is super knowledgeable. I can't imagine ever changing CPAs. I better retire before John does! read more

We've been working with Schaaf CPA for both our business and personal taxes, and they've been fantastic.

I have gone to Schaaf cpa group for years. John is an excellent accountant and takes time to explain everything to you in terms you understand. He is very reasonable on pricing and makes the tax season easy to get through by sending out packets so his clients so you know what to send to him to do your taxes. I highly recommend him.

We have used Schaaf CPA the last 3 years for our tax prep. We've been happy with them. I found the folks there friendly and easy to work with. They provide you with a tax organizer document that helps you pull together all the right supporting forms/info. Our turnaround was really quick --only a week--during February. read more

John is an excellent CPA. I first started working with him about 4 years ago. I had been working with liberty tax group prior. Not only did John do my current taxes, but he helped me unravel several years of unfiled taxes -dating back to the 80's and 90's we wanted to deal with - AND he discovered huge mistakes that liberty made when reviewing our old returns and got us 9k back on the corrected liberty returns. Johns team is great. It's easy to make an appointment, even if you wait till the last minute. John sends his customers an organizer prior to tax season so that you can quickly see what you need to bring with you as you answer the questionnaire. He's fairly priced, talented, organized and fun to work with. read more

I recently moved to Indiana, and wanted to support the local economy and local small business by having my taxes done by a local CPA. I regretfully decided to go to Schaaf CPA. Per the reviews I read, I thought I'd be getting professional, top quality service, but got the exact opposite. Mr. Schaaf was disrespectful, degrading and unprofessional. Having moved up in tax brackets, changed states and become a first time homeowner since my previous tax return, I knew there would be a difference in the return. When I inquired about the finished return to get a better understanding of exactly how it all impacted the refund I was getting, Mr. Schaaf showed his true unprofessionalism. Here's a brief overview: I just wanted to understand why my previous year's refund was a much higher amount. A professional CPA's response: "Last year, you qualified for the Earned Income Tax Credit because your total gross income was below the cutoff of x amount of dollars, so you received x amount of dollars from the government." Mr. Schaaf's response verbatim: "Last year you were so poor, so the government just gave you some money." Mr. Schaaf didn't even have the courtesy to speak to me in an office in a one on one setting, but instead spoke to me in the lobby of his office, in the presence of others, including my family. So for $250 you can expect to be degraded, disrespected and treated unprofessionally by Mr. Schaaf. Please take your hard-earned money somewhere else. Anywhere else. read more
