Schwarz Donald B Acctng

I must echo … I’ve been using Donald for years and will continue to do so. He’s reasonable, well-​versed, knowledgeable and personable. I highly recommend him.

On a friend’s recommendation, I finally switched to Donald Schwarz’s Accounting offices after mounting dissatisfaction with my previous tax preparer. I brought my 2009 taxes for a late evening appointment in March and met with Mr. Schwarz himself. Aside from being friendly and personable, the first thing I noticed about him is that he’s like Mozart with the calculator pad. Barely looking at the keys, Mr. Schwarz blithely tapped out a concerto with one hand while scanning and marking my paperwork with the other. I wound up owing the government for 2009, but since I performed a Roth conversion, it was no surprise.
I think I’m going to stick with this firm not only because they’re obviously knowledgeable, professional and have been in business for years, but they’re still small enough to not have lost that friendly touch with their clients. That really goes a long way for a lot of people, myself included.
In addition to all these obvious reasons, I love the fact that my paperwork for 2009 no longer has to be a quarter-​inch thick pile of papers that takes up precious real estate in my file drawers. Schwarz Accounting files your returns electronically and then does their part to help the environment by providing clients with a paperless copy of the filings on a CD-​ROM. Brilliant. My entire taxes for 2009 consists of a thin envelope containing a CD Rom and one sheet of paper with important phone numbers and websites.
It’s pretty much a no brainer who will prepare my 2010 taxes and beyond.
