The accounting company of Edward M. Simpson, CPA, is situated in East Providence, RI. Ed personally handles both your business and personal accounting and income tax services, and still charges reasonable fees. Ed distances himself from the impersonal service that many accounting companies and franchise tax preparers supply. This has been his dedication to you since his company was set up in 1996.

Extremely disappointed in the service received. If I could rate a 0 star I would. Fact is this man did NOT file my taxes and has refused to respond in any way shape or form to both myself and my wife. After spending an evening at Ed's office we were extremely pleased and confident that we made a good choice but as time went on that took a sharp turn into a ditch.
Everyone makes bad choices in business, but for my first year I made the worst - by choosing this CPA. My first year married, and my first year in business has been left in the hands of a man who has not responded and has left me no choice but to contact the IRS explain the situation. Thanks buddy, hope you're having fun hiking in the White Mountains because "it's so slow in the summer"! No sweat off your back, right?

We've been using Ed for a number of years and could not be happier with his services. We had jobs in RI and MA at the same time and Ed handled all the ins and outs of the two states, home sales, etc. We've since moved to Virginia and feel fortunate that we can still send our tax info up to Ed. We have total trust in his abilities and appreciate his efficiency and fair price.

I have been going to Ed Simpson since moving to Rhode Island 15 years ago. Always professional and knowledgeable He's been great and helped me navigate through my changing situation over the years. I've referred family members, co-workers, and friends and they are all happy with his high level of service. Will continue going to Ed for many years to come

I can't stress how easy Ed makes tax season. My fiance and I started seeing Ed 4 years ago. Previously, we had lived in two different states, with two different jobs. So we had a heck of a time doing our taxes. Every year, I would sit down sometime during the end of March, purchase the latest tax software, and spend hours going over it, hoping I did it right.
Usually by the end of 10 hours of doing my returns, I would be frustrated, angry, and in tears. Needless to say, it was extremely stressful. We decided to go to Ed the following year. He sat us down, took our receipts and forms and asked a few questions. Thirty minutes later, all of my information was entered in and I had a great refund coming back!
My fiance has a bit more complicated return, which involves deductions. No problem for Ed. He took the time and went through each one, and soon enough my fiance also received a great refund. I asked Ed if he could look at my previous year's return. He took all my information (I came prepared) and he said that yes, he could re-file them and get me a larger return.
I was thrilled! He filed both our taxes, and then gave us all our information back in a nicely bound folder for easy reference for future use. Really, what I enjoy about Ed is that he is quick, personable, intelligent, good at his job, and a CERTIFIED accountant. He tells us of the conferences that he goes to, and he tells us how the law has changed from year to year.
He also gives us advice on how we should file for the up-coming year, depending if we are going to switch jobs, or get a raise. Seriously, for me, Ed Simpson took ALL of the stress of tax time away. As long as Ed is in business, I will continue to go to him. He makes it so easy, it's almost comical to watch my friends and family stress over their taxes. I just tell them "You should go see Ed, one of the best things I've ever done."

So glad I decided to have Ed take care of my taxes this year! I usually do them on my own. But being a first time home buyer I was nervous this time! He was very helpful and knew about things that I would have never even picked up on. I'm glad I didn't decide to go to a big tax company like H&R Block who are way overpriced! Ed was affordable and personable and it's always great to have somebody who's been doing it for 30 years! Nothing but good feedback. Definitely would recommend him. I will be seeing him again for many years to come!
