It is too easy to overlook deductions and credits to which you are entitled if you prepare only one return a year. Even the use of computer software is no substitute for the assistance of a seasoned tax preparer.
We prepare hundreds of tax returns every year. We know what to look for when your return is prepared. More importantly, you will have someone to answer your questions during the rest of the year.

We have used Pereira CPA's now for about 4 years. We were referred to them by a friend, when looking to switch accountants, and never looked back. While we work primarily with Jay, both he and Stephanie are always a pleasure to work with. They handle both our personal and business tax returns. We even schedule a tax planning meeting each year to ensure we are positioning ourselves properly for the closing tax year. Highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of personal or business tax preparations.
