About

Kim Walker, CPA is a seasoned tax professional and accountant with over 25+ years experience. I am committed to my clients and exceeding their expectations. My areas of expertise include tax preparation for individuals, businesses, estates and trust; IRS and State agency Representation and resolution of various issues, bookkeeping, QB training, business entity structure/creation, payroll services and sales tax. I am not a "TAX RETURN FACTORY", where you are just a return. This differs from the others that are bidding on your return. I will be preparing the actual return myself. Many firms have low level staff that prepare the returns and not the CPA you engage with. I truly enjoy working with Individuals and small businesses to help strategize earnings with tax planning. It is rewarding giving people advice to help them improve their financial picture and avoid paying unnecessary taxes. Remember, I work for you not for the IRS. Many of my clients save many times the fee in reduced taxes with planning. A simple review helps confirm that I’m doing a good job. Looking forward to working with you!

I’ve been using the online tax software to file my taxes (turbotax, TaxSlayer) the last few years and have been making a mess of it. Kim did a wonderful job sorting me out. Will definitely continue using her going forward. Thanks Kim!

Kim was amazing! I am a medical contractor and it was hard finding someone knowledgeable enough about working in multiple states but residing in another. She was very helpful in everything and even got me a return. I’m grateful to have had her complete my taxes, I’ll definitely use her services next year.

We are very happy with our decision to go with Empire State Tax Solutions. Professionalism and responsiveness were key factors and Mrs. Walker focused on our individual needs and provided solution options that we were comfortable with choosing from.
