I wanted to take time to thank Tim Abbott for dealing with me and my wife as brand new clients. I…read moream a dentist and my accountant retired after using him for my business and personal taxes for 35 years. I reached out to a fellow dentist friend and he recommended Tim and his team. This year's taxes had a glitch on my part with a late k1 for some unknown reason ( never had an issue like this in 35 years ) but Tim was absolutely fantastic and patient with me asking so many questions. I was concerned because it was a big change for me and dentists (me) are not always great with change. We are creatures of habit. Add to the fact that I'm officially retiring this year and I wanted to make sure my taxes were taken care of. Looking back , Tim had our backs the whole time and assured us he would get things filed once we got this k1 and that's EXACTLY what he and his team did for us. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. If you need a team that will get the job done , look no further. I look forward to a long relationship with him like I did with our last accounting team. Thank you guys. Look no further if you want a professional who gets the job done , just call Tim ! Wish I could have given more than 5 stars .

You know those weird traditions your family has that probably have some very sensible origin, but…read moreyou don't really know anything about that and you just kinda do it because the rest of your fam does? That's me with M.J. Vandenbroucke. My entire family has gotten their taxes done here FOREVER, and while I'm not sure why or how this came about, I AM sure I'm terrible at math and adult things, so I follow suit. I've been getting my taxes done here for as long as I've been filing taxes and I love them - they're personable, hardworking, they never steer me wrong, they ask a zillion great questions, and I'm always pleased with the outcome (I mean c'mon, they're not miracle workers, they can't magically get me a bigger refund). Since I've never gone anywhere else to get my taxes done, I don't know how "reasonable" their prices are, but given that my hubs has his his done online through H&R Block and there's no real person to check his work or tell him he's being an idiot and he pays only slightly less than I do, I think it's a pretty good deal. Though lots of you whipper snappers probably have gone the route of turbo tax and other online tax preparers, I'm just not 100% comfortable with that. Until I get there, I'll continue to come here - where I'm confident they'll do an awesome job, and they remember my face year after year.

If you are looking for a reliable, no-nonsense CPA in the Portage Park/Irving Park area, John…read moreGriffin is the person to see. Navigating small business taxes in Chicago can be a headache, but John makes the entire process feel manageable and transparent. The Experience John is incredibly professional but also very personable. Unlike some of the larger, impersonal firms, he actually takes the time to listen to your specific financial situation. He's been in the neighborhood for a long time and clearly knows the ins and outs of both Illinois and federal tax laws. Why I Recommend Him: Responsiveness: He is great about returning calls and emails, even during the peak of tax season. You never feel like just another file on a desk. Accuracy & Insight: He doesn't just "plug in numbers." He looks for proactive ways to help you save on taxes and plan for the next year.
