I found The Bridge CPAs while searching for tax preparers after a negative experience with Turbo Tax. I was impressed with their reviews and decided to work with this company. Staff were very responsive via email and phone. I worked with Nega Teshome who offered to work with me in person. Nega was so kind, helpful, professional, and he answered all of my questions. I had my taxes filed in less than 45 minutes after walking into his office. He registered me for their online portal and I will be using the platform to file my documents electronically next year. I feel confident that I am in good hands and look forward to doing my taxes with The Bridge CPAs in the future.

My husband and I had an excellent experience with Mr. Teshome! In the past, I filed both my taxes and my husband's taxes as Single, so it was easy at the time. Once we got married in November and got our W-2's in January, it seemed like all my prior tax knowledge flew out the window, and everything became overwhelming when trying to combine our income via Turbo Tax. Like a DIY bride who struggles to hand her plans over to a wedding planner, I was afraid to hand our tax info over to a CPA, but Mr. Teshome was perfect for the job. He's totally patient, and he explains tax implications and positions in layman's and accountant's terms so both my husband and I understand what's going on. He also answers any questions you may have in full, concrete detail so you comprehend everything. I love the simplicity of being able to upload our files to a secure server so we don't have to keep up with a lot of hard copies. When we met with Mr. Teshome, he was already about 75% complete with our return because I had uploaded them to his secure server no more than three hours before our appointment. Talk about a time saver! I should've handed over my taxes when I was single, but there's no time like the present, and I'm glad my husband and I came across his info. on Thumbtack. He has definitely saved us a lot of headache and time. I highly recommend him, and I've even referred two of my friends to him. Thank you, sir!

Mr. Teshome was easy to talk to and took the time to make sure that all the "I's" were dotted and all the "T's" were crossed to ensure an accurate e-filing of my taxes this year. I highly recommend him!

I had a fantastic experience with The Bridge CPAs in every respect. Mr. Teshome is clearly knowledgeable in all aspects of the US tax code, but it is his forthcoming character, his commitment to getting my taxes done in the most thorough detailed manner, the clarity of his explanation, and his honest transparent approach to the whole process that makes me want to recommend his service to anyone needing tax preparation. I am grateful to Thumbtack for connecting me to this outstanding professional!
