What would a person look for in a CPA?
Good CPA’s are ethical, diplomatic and have well-developed people skills that enable them to develop trust and rapport with their clients. They’re able to use their integrity to foster collaborative and respectful environments, which helps clients make good business decisions. Respected and admired by their peers, clients and the general population, CPAs are often viewed as an elite group of professionals. After years of academic and technical training – and passing the rigorous CPA exam – a CPA’s ethics and character are further tested with several years of extensive on-the-job training. The first step any good CPA will take is being willing to stop and listen to client needs while trying to establish a long-term working relationship with their clients.
A CPA is a trustworthy confidant. A trustworthy confidant always makes it easier to deal with stressful financial matters. A trusting relationship will always need to remain professional.
Anthony Perrotta believes that a good relationship with a CPA begins and ends with trust. He has a history of reliability since 1987 and is dependable and committed to his clients.

What is the best way to file my taxes?
Now more than ever, the safest and best way to file a complete and accurate tax return and get a refund is to file electronically and use direct deposit. Most refunds are issued in less than 21 days, but some refunds may take longer for a variety of reasons.
