An associate mentioned to me that he went to 5 different CPAs (Certified Public Accountant) before he found one he liked! Really? 5? Your tax accountant is part of your “life” team. You need to feel comfortable calling them up and asking them questions about anything….not just tax stuff. At Liberty Tax, we believe when you have finished your consultation with a new client, they need to feel like you all could watch the Super Bowl together and have a few beers and maybe some chips and dip. Do you feel like that? If not, you might need to change the tax accountant you have on your “life” team!–Tax Trish
