Charles was incredible. We've just started a business and he helped us immensely in capturing and amortizing our startup expenses. Very knowledgable and helpful to setup a plan moving forward on profitable years.

Charles has served as my family's accountant for years now, and has been absolutely fantastic. He has handled my taxes, financial plan, side hustles, my wife starting a new business, etc. all with skill and experience. Highly recommend.

Great accountant! I have been using Mr. Kerner to help me file my personal taxes for the past three years and I have absolutely no complaints. He is fast, efficient and informative. He is available for both in person and phone appointments and is very professional. I plan on using Mr. Kerner again in the future and would highly recommend him to those looking for a new accountant!

As someone who is clueless when it comes taxes, Charles made the whole process seamless. He patiently answered all my questions and got me a larger refund than I was expecting. He also asked about and even remembered my dog's name! All and all a really good experience. Thanks Charles!

My first time having taxes done for me, I couldn't have gone to a better place. Most of my forms were as an independent contractor and I wasn't maximizing my deductions. They helped me save way more than I would have on my own. It's such a relief to be able to hand everything over and know you're in good hands. Will be using them for years to come!

Had my 2017 return prepared here, they netted me a refund nearly five times my 2016 return!

I had an exceptionally great experience with Charles Kerner. I am starting a new creative venture and I could not have asked for a better accountant to help guide me. I initially reached out to several accountants and he was the only one who took the time to speak to me about my needs and answer my questions. Mr. Kerner helped me with my initial business set up and also did my personal and business taxes. I was nervous about these processes, but Mr. Kerner was very kind and made everything easy. I even owed much less in taxes than I expected. Highly recommended!

You could not pick a better accountant. I am a contractor who had multiple income streams and owed taxes to many different jurisdictions. I was confused as to how to go about filing, and was dismayed at my tax bill. After a few email exchanges Charles and his team had squared everything away and managed to save me several thousand dollars. Satisfied wouldn't begin to describe it.
