John has been a gold mine of information for doing both our personal and my business taxes for the past five+ years. Service and professionalism are both above expectations, and pricing is extremely fair for the quality of John's service. I highly recommend Schaaf CPA Group.

John and his team are outstanding! We're fairly new to Indiana and our first year we had multi-state and small business taxes to be completed. John provided us with excellent tax advice and quick turn around on all tax documents.

I have been using Schaaf for 4 years starting after my husbands death and they have been patient, kind, and easy to work with. They were recommended by a friend and have been great ever since I started using them. They took the stress out of taxes! They have been worth every dollar!

Since starting our business about a year ago Schaaf CPA Group has been by our side. They do a great job in keeping us on track with our filings and taxes. We also use their payroll service which is an easy process with them. It's great knowing we have someone on our side to help us navigate the many tax and payroll laws and regulations. I would highly recommend Schaaf to anyone looking for a CPA.

I recently moved to Indiana, and wanted to support the local economy and local small business by having my taxes done by a local CPA. I regretfully decided to go to Schaaf CPA. Per the reviews I read, I thought I'd be getting professional, top quality service, but got the exact opposite. Mr. Schaaf was disrespectful, degrading and unprofessional. Having moved up in tax brackets, changed states and become a first time homeowner since my previous tax return, I knew there would be a difference in the return.

When I inquired about the finished return to get a better understanding of exactly how it all impacted the refund I was getting, Mr. Schaaf showed his true unprofessionalism. Here's a brief overview: I just wanted to understand why my previous year's refund was a much higher amount. A professional CPA's response: "Last year, you qualified for the Earned Income Tax Credit because your total gross income was below the cutoff of x amount of dollars, so you received x amount of dollars from the government." Mr. Schaaf's response verbatim: "Last year you were so poor, so the government just gave you some money." Mr. Schaaf didn't even have the courtesy to speak to me in an office in a one on one setting, but instead spoke to me in the lobby of his office, in the presence of others, including my family. So for $250 you can expect to be degraded, disrespected and treated unprofessionally by Mr. Schaaf. Please take your hard-earned money somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Last year was our first experience with Schaaf CPA Group. We were so impressed with them! They were extremely knowledgeable and very helpful with our tax questions. In the past, it's taken over a month to get our tax return prepared but we were pleasantly surprised that Schaaf CPA Group had ours done in a matter of days. We will definitely be using them for many years to come. They were great!

I have gone to Schaaf CPA group for over 20 years and John and his team are always professional, efficient and polite. I get my taxes in a few days so I can pay them and receive my refund faster than some tax preparer places which make you wait weeks to get your refund. Thanks for the great service!

John is amazing. He always treats me right. I feel that he is fair with his pricing. He is always up front with me. Tells me what we can and cannot do. Answer any questions I have by phone or email in a timely manner. He is patient with my children when we bring them in with us. He has a great sense of humor. Easy to work with. His staff is always very professional, polite, and easy to work with. I always tell people about him when accounting comes up. I would highly recommend.

My wife and I have been utilizing John Schaaf's expertise for several years now and actually look forward to our appointments. John is professional, yet friendly and has our taxes prepared in minutes. We actually spend more time chatting and catching up than we do focusing on the task at hand. We will continue to use Schaaf CPA Group and definitely recommend their services!

John Schaaf is a skilled and efficient tax preparer. I have used his firm for 6+ years. His fees are reasonable and he's accessible for questions throughout the year. In addition, he has made a commitment to Westfield's downtown by owning his building and serving on various committees. If you want professional CPA services and want to support a small local business, Schaaf CPA group is an excellent choice.

John is an excellent CPA. I first started working with him about 4 years ago. I had been working with liberty tax group prior. Not only did John do my current taxes, but he helped me unravel several years of unfiled taxes -dating back to the 80's and 90's we wanted to deal with - AND he discovered huge mistakes that liberty made when reviewing our old returns and got us 9k back on the corrected liberty returns. Johns team is great. It's easy to make an appointment, even if you wait till the last minute. John sends his customers an organizer prior to tax season so that you can quickly see what you need to bring with you as you answer the questionnaire. He's fairly priced, talented, organized and fun to work with.
