Alice and Katherine have been helping with my taxes for many years now. I am super happy with the experience and will keep coming back. My taxes are not the most complicated, but they definitely have some quirks that require attention. I'm really glad to have found Kenneth's firm.

My wife Nita and I, mainly me, used to do our Federal and State Tax Returns by ourselves, but when they started to get too complicated and we started making errors, we though there had to be a better solution. About seven years ago, we found the firm of Kenneth J. Watter, CPA. Since then, we no longer had to struggle our way through the confusing tax codes. We provided Ken and Alice with the information and they prepared our tax returns and submit them with no errors and on time. Every member of the Office is willing to answer our questions and getting our returns done. We feel relieved when we sign our returns and they are filed. Ken, Alice and Office staff are the best and we highly recommend them to my family and friends.Ron and Nita

Kens office has been instrumental in getting (and keeping) my tax situation organized for the last several years. Through job changes, moves, etc., they have supported my (ever-increasingly) complex taxes. I recommend them to any friends and family.

I have been a client of Kenneth J. Watter, CPA, PA for fifteen years. With the complicated nature of my returns, I can give them my information and they are able to explain my tax information and explain it to me in a way that I understand. The firm is courteous and professional no matter which accountant there handles my return in any given year. Although this firm is an hour away from where I live, I highly recommend them for any taxpayer in the Maryland area.

Alice and her team are super friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They are also experienced in international tax matters, which is a skill hard to find in the Maryland suburbs. I am so happy to have found this accountancy firm as they have definitely given me peace of mind.
