Bob patiently hung in there while I tried to make myself and information I needed available. Once I was able to make and keep an appointment, he cleared up my tax situation and lifted a heavy burden off of my mind. I will and have already recommended Bob Does Taxes to friends and family. Thank you again Bob… see you next tax season!

Bob is personable, highly knowledgeable and very thorough. I had a complicated situation, which required multiple amended returns for bot federal and state. He was simply wonderful and I am receiving back a lot of taxes I had previously paid. He was very timely, kept in touch, answered all of my questions and his fee was much lower than what I anticipated. I was a bookkeeper in my former working career and have always done my own taxes, but with the complications I knew I'd need professional help and Bob was terrific! Thank you Bob so very much! I will make sure to recommend you to anyone who is in need of a great tax accountant.

Dan helped us understand why we had to pay the taxes we owed and even did a comparison analysis for single vs joint making things very clear.
