Introduction: I take the time to show clients what I am doing, how I arrived at the figures I came up with and get buy-in. Yes, I am a tax expert but I also want the client to be comfortable with the approach I have taken with their finances. The most important thing I like about preparing taxes is the interaction with people I have known for many years. I catch up with what is going on with their families. I have several clients whose children I watched grow up to adulthood and I help them with college ideas and tax returns. We are offering securities mediation services. Please contact me directly is you are in need of mediation relating to securities related issues.

Richard was great to work with, and I will see him again next year. It was a hot Sunday afternoon, and his birthday. He is a real Pro, who knows what he's doing. He is personable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Thanks Richard !!

I went to Richard after a bad experience with turbo tax and another local accountant. He gave good, clear advice and knew how to keep me calm during a stressful time. Helped me receive an outstanding tax return! I will be returning.

Had a really great consultation with Richard. He was very attentive and did not hesitate to print documents for us to discuss and talk about together. Due to other circumstances I hired an accountant connected to a lawyer of mine. Thanks though Richard.

Hi Brent: It was my pleasure to be of assistance even though you chose someone else. At least I empowered you with information so you could be prepared to ask the right questions. Again, it was a pleasure to meet and work with you at least for the initial consultation. Be well.

Richard is very detail oriented, friendly and patient. Filing tax is always a stressful experience, but with Richard you know you're being taken good care of. Simply put, he is the best!

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
In general, I make an appointment and ask the client to visit the resources page on my website. I have an intake form I want them to fill, scan and send to me with a copy of their most recent tax return. I then have an interview with the client to determine their tax issues and budget.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am presently working on my continuing education to satisfy the IRS. I was granted the Enrolled Agent designation so I have to provide a higher level of service than most tax preparers. Enrolled agents are permitted to practice throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam and the other U.S. territories. Accordingly, I have to take any additional classes so that I may prepare multi-state returns. **UPDATE** You can check me out on CTEC and find that I am no longer registered. That's OK, I do not have to since I am an Enrolled Agent.**
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I basically followed the family business. I decided to do this to spend more time with my father. I subsequently enjoyed working with the clients and learning more about accounting and business.
