Oh where to start. Reached out to this firm based on a recommendation. All correspondence was via e-mail. Determined that the price for a return was reasonable (estimated around $450-$550) plus whatever extra complications. Sent the partner my previous turbo tax file (per request) and then asked two questions regarding my tax situation. This turned into a bit of an exchange over email, even had to send some additional papers. Mind you, this is all going on way before the actual tax return. One question answered, another not, but it did not matter because I figured once the actual tax prep began I can get all the information. Get a bill a few weeks later for $400 for "emails". Yeah, brutal. Turns out that answering two questions and going over some papers will run you four hundred bucks. Naturally, I resisted as that is crazy. So he offered a discount to $300, but that was still too much. I am being charged for emails what people pay for basic tax returns? Mind you at no point whatsoever do you get warned or that you are on the clock. Few months later collector comes knocking, I explain the situation and seemingly everything is quiet. Nope, they sue me in small claims. I figured why not, there is no way this is reasonable. Feels like a giant firm fleecing the small guy. Court will surely rule in my favor. Nope, clerk magistrate barely cares about my story and rules against me. Best part? The lawyers (yes, two ) had two cases that day. Apparently I am not the only one who finds the practices of this firm shady, underhanded and sneaky. However they still got their money from me one way or another, too bad it was via the courts and not actual services. Stay the hell away folks. read more

Excellent work, trustworthy and reliable. After filing taxes on my own for a number of years, I wish I had reached out to Stevens and Ciccone sooner! Communication was professional and thorough and they made the tax filing process easy. I can't speak highly enough of their service. read more

Can't say enough good things about Stevens & Ciccone. As an artist who's income fluctuates wildly, they have not only been able to keep my financial affairs steady, but have guided me in such as way to minimize my tax exposure. Mr Ciccone has always handled my affairs with the utmost professionalism and promptness. His firm is one of the best in Boston. read more

Excellent service! I normally do my taxes myself but between furlough due to the pandemic, unemployment, and a career change I really needed some assistance. Mark was so patient and helpful and made doing my taxes simple. Thank you so much! read more

Best place to go for navigating the complex and daunting task of getting your taxes filed! Ciccone and their team are nothing short of stellar. Every year I'm left with the confidence knowing they've looked over every aspect of my return, and have helped ensure I'm reporting accurate information. They also go above and beyond when it comes to understanding my particular circumstances, and how best to report those to the IRS. Couldn't be happier with my experience. read more

Used them last year for my tax returns. First, they were 100% over budget. The rationale, was that I had sent "too many emails." I had no indication that this was running over budget, and the information from the start to the finish did not change. Furthermore, they didn't finish my returns. Part of the returns involved amending another state's previous years returns, which they did not do as part of the 100% over budget ultimate fee. They did offer to do them when things quieted down post tax season, I followed up, and haven't heard back. Avoid them, very very poor quality of service and over priced. read more

I emailed a single question to the group, received an 8 sentence response that required no calculations and was not specific to my taxes (a general question on what is deductible) and was charged for 3 hours of work ($750). When I questioned the bill, the head accountant accidentally emailed me to tell his employee to "give her a stern response" rather than justify why it took a long time to write that email. Apparently there was no justification, he just wanted to bully me. read more

Stevens and Ciccone Associates have been my personal accountants, since the '70's when a trusted business colleague referred me to them, and my business accountants since 1996, when I started my own consultancy. I have worked with many other accountants and accounting firms in the course of my own business and Stevens and Ciccone have continued to earn my confidence and loyalty, year after year of our long and productive association. They also served my mother well, after I introduced her to them. I have found in particular that they provide astute, timely business advice, honest and straightforward personal financial counsel, and excellent customer service from all members of the firm. They deserve my unqualified recommendation. read more

I've worked with Gary and Mike every year for 15 years. That has involved working with them as well as most of the members of their staff. They have been consistently very good. Generally they are ahead of me and have anticipated my needs correctly. They know their business, are skilled at doing the job and getting it done on time, or better, and do it with a minimum of needless interaction. They can be depended on to do a good and timely job. read more

Stevens & Ciccone is the best tax service and advisory practice you could find: thorough, supportive, and always with their client's best interest at heart. I have worked with them for nearly 40 years while I have grown my own business practice, relying on them for business advice as well as tax services. My business is now more successful than ever before. I have brought some of my most difficult clients to Stevens & Ciccone, and watched them patiently educate and save these clients from the trouble the clients have gotten into. Excellent service for decades! read more

These people are great! Over the last few years I've personally worked with most of the folks in this office and they really make my tax planning a breeze. I started a business two years ago and they made the accounting side much easier than if I was trying to do it with a smaller shop or alone. They provide advice throughout the year and I know we will use them again for our next LLC. I've recommended them to three other people for both business and personal CPA needs and they all spoke highly of their experiences. read more

Very good accounting firm. Always turns the returns around fast during tax season and very responsive staff.

If you are looking for a one stop accounting & tax service for yourself as an individual or for your company or companies, look no further. This group are the real deal. They have handle start-up companies for me & my group as well as on-going "mature companies" When my companies sold, all accounting & taxes were handled through The Stevens & Ciccone Group. They handle my personal, family & corporate returns. It doesn't matter how large or small you are, they will treat you with respect & like you are the only client they have. I have recommended them the many business associates as well as personal friends that have employed their services & are very please with the results over many years.....& one has to be very careful of who one recommends today in this arena. The Stevens & Ciccone Group work is professional, complete, on time & CORRECT. I do not know any of them in a social environment but I have been doing business with this firm for over 40 years with more than 10 different companies and 15 family members & 20 friends. I've seen many other firms & Stevens & Ciccone are the best by far. read more

Too arrogant and rude. "I know it all and I don't care about you" attitude. Could have been a little polite and less greedy.
