Top 10 CPA’s Phoenix

phoenix cpa

Have you been looking for a reliable Certified Public Accountant? Have you been searching the web for a phrase like “CPA near me?” Or “best CPA Phoenix?” Or searching for the firms with the best reviews for accounting? 

Being in business requires a proficient Phoenix CPA to make sure your business keeps up with the books, filing proper documentation to the IRS, filing comprehensive tax returns, and keeping tabs on the company’s current health by way of profit and loss statements, incoming revenue and outgoing expenses.

Often, your Phoenix CPA is one of your most trusted advisors, and should be, for good reason. They are the ones counting the beans, so to speak. Any business, organization (even nonprofits), corporations, small and large, need valuable and competent CPA’s to run the accounting aspects of the business while you remain with your head down running the business.

Let’s face it— just like Phoenix Financial Advisor, a CPA can make or break your business by ensuring you are protecting yourself from losses, excessive taxation, and ensuring you are maximizing your write-offs in accordance to IRS tax code. As a business owner, accounting probably isn’t your specialty. For that reason alone, you really need to leave it up to someone who is active in the market and has the credentials to do so.

Choosing the wrong Phoenix CPA can hurt your business and bring pain to you emotionally and financially.

One of the most common complaints of business owners is “My accountant is hard to reach.” You don’t want to work with a CPA who isn’t on top of their business and potentially lets your business slip by the wayside.

Doing research on CPA’s is a must, to make sure you are making the right decision. Therefore, we have done our research for you to narrow down the top 10 CPA’s within Phoenix, Arizona who are talented and experienced with good reviews, history, ratings, cost and provide exceptional services.

Before we dive into our list of preferred Certified Public Accountants, let’s talk about a few things to take into consideration.

Tips for Vetting CPA’s

Testimonials & Reviews- This is the most crucial aspect of finding the right CPA. Real reviews are a sure way to do your research. Look for a CPA who is active in marketing, with good reviews, and social proof of their work performance. Online reviews within Google and Yelp can be a telling resource.

Referrals- Do you have an attorney? I bet your attorney knows a good CPA. Ask other business owners, venders or contractors you do business with. Ask them who they like to use and why.

Check the CPA out- Have others recommended them online within Google, LinkedIn, and Yelp? If you call them, do they answer or get back to you in a timely manner? Set up a time to visit face to face and discuss your needs and concerns around your business and financial goals. It’s helpful, but not necessary for the CPA to specialize in your specific industry or market. Lastly, its critical you have a good working relationship, after all you are paying them for their services. If you don’t feel comfortable asking questions or requesting information, you should consider finding a new accountant.

Full time- Ideally, you want to find a CPA who is a full time CPA. Working with someone who does it part time or is gone most of the year and not able to serve your organization or small business can pose challenges.

Cost- Ask the CPA how much he or she will cost you annually. To prevent overspending, make sure the costs are discussed upfront and not exceeded. Set the expectation first, and make sure it is adhered to. Price doesn’t necessarily indicate quality of work; it represents how they alone value their time and expertise.
