I have trusted Millie with my taxes for several years now and...thank goodness for that!…read more Whether you're experiencing good times or bad, Millie is super efficient, knowledgeable, and she really cares about helping you achieve the best outcome. I've tried to do taxes on my own, but the problem is, if you're not working in this area daily, you don't know all the questions you should be asking yourself. It can even feel embarrassing to ask certain questions. Except with Millie. She makes you feel empowered and grateful at the same time. I only wish we could clone her so that there's a Millie in every city!

Elan is amazing! I have seen Elan for the past 4 years to do my tax returns. Not only is he very…read moreknowledgeable in the tax world, but he knows how to explain things in a normal, easy-to-understand way. He is very thorough and looks under every rock. Extremely helpful and pleasant to work with! I recently moved 2 hours out from SF but since he's so good I picked a day to drive back to see him to get my taxes done (he would have done it via mail but I preferred meeting with him directly). I HIGHLY recommend Elan specifically!

I came to Melissa with a pretty annoying tax mess involving old Roth IRA contributions and a late…read morereturn, and she helped me get everything straightened out. What I appreciated most was how easy she was to communicate with. She explained things clearly, answered all my questions, and gave me very specific steps for what I needed to do. I never felt like I was getting vague CPA-speak. She helped me with both my 2024 and 2025 returns and is also helping me avoid the same Roth issue in the future. I'd definitely recommend her if you want someone who actually communicates well and makes complicated tax stuff feel manageable.

Melissa has been helping my family with our tax preparation for years. As my financial situation…read morebecame more complex and I can no longer trust myself with TurboTax, she expertly took over once I provided all my documents. She was able to reduce my liability. The e-filing process was simple and paying what I owe was a secure and seamless process. She has given me peace of mind through the years and I trust that she prepares my taxes accurately as I have never had any issues with the IRS. I plan to continue working with Melissa as she has been helpful with tax saving strategies as my life situation changes.

Francis is, without a doubt, the most dedicated and knowledgeable CPA I've had the pleasure to work…read morewith. He charges a reasonable flat rate and encourages you to ask any and all questions you have without regarding the time. He helped me uncover several errors in my previous tax returns due to the incompetence of my previous CPA and gave me options to remedy these issues without feeling pressured to continue using his services. He makes an honest effort to save me money and I greatly appreciate his integrity. I will be following up with him on resolving my previous years' issues and will definitely continue using his services in the future! As for Anny's review below, I am baffled if we even saw the same CPA. There is another Tax Magic listing on Yelp based in Hayward so I'm guessing she must've been talking about him? Francis is the complete opposite of "irresponsible" and "uncaring", and I find him completely trustworthy. I highly recommend you reach out to Francis for your tax woes -- he's the right guy who'll fix it for you without breaking the budget! (Plus he has really good jasmine tea he'll be glad to serve you!)

James has been our insurance agent for the past 13 years and I'm still shocked at how responsive…read moreand organized he is. When I ask for a quote, he always responds promptly and lays out the options clearly in an email, then follows up to make sure we get covered in a timely manner. My wife and I have gone back and forth between working for others and working for ourselves. When we work for ourselves, we know that James will always get us covered for the best price possible. I've referred at least a dozen friends and family to James. At family/friend gatherings, when the conversation gets really enthralling and we start going deep on health insurance, we always talk about how great James is to work with.

Michael has completed my last two tax returns and helped me with an IRS audit from a prior year. He…read moreis incredibly friendly, professional and knowledgeable and makes the entire process as easy as possible. In addition to being great at what he does, Michael is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that I'm getting my full refund. I got married last year and he took the time to research the pros and cons of filing jointly or separately. So helpful! When I received a scary notice from the IRS that said I owed thousands of dollars, Michael was of course the first person I reached out to. Not only did he ease my concerns, but he was able to figure out where things had gone wrong (I used to do my own taxes) and how to fix it. I ended up having to pay just a tiny fraction of what the IRS originally thought I owed. In short, Michael is awesome and I would (and already do) recommend him to anyone in need of a great accountant!

I have not looked back since starting with Eileen. She has been extraordinarily helpful to me. Eileen was an IRS auditor for over 20 years, which means she knows the ins and outs of taxes. She's efficient and knowledgable, and for a one-woman show (her grandson is now helping out), she has a fast turn-around time. Highly recommended.

Eileen Magnes is a TAX GURU! I am not kidding. Thank goodness for Holly B.'s referral. She has…read morean incredible background, work experience and vast knowledge such that other Accountants and CPAs sometimes refer their clients to Eileen for certain situations that require more attention or intricate dealings with the IRS (after all, she used to work for them for many years). Aside from all that, my husband and I found her to be highly professional, very personable, direct and charming at the same time (yes- all this in a Tax Consultant. I'm sure I don't have to point out that in and of itself is quite rare.) I'm telling you, if you get the opportunity to have Eileen work on your taxes, consider yourself a lucky duck. She knows EXACTLY what she's doing... and she's quite incredible at it. Thank you, Eileen and thank you, Holly B... :)
