Is the first conversation free?
Yes. Fifteen minutes by phone to understand what you need and give you a fee. Longer planning meetings are charged.
How are your fees set?
As a fixed fee agreed in writing before we start, based on the forms and the work involved. If something new turns up, we tell you before doing more.
When should I book for tax season?
January and February. From March the calendar fills up, and returns booked late may need an extension.
