D & J does an incredible job with my taxes every year! They go above and beyond to make sure I'm getting the maximum refund, the customer service is incredible. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my tax returns.

My family and I have been using their services for years. I have to say: incredible, amazing service. Everything is done on time, they are very thorough with documents and very attentive to customers. The team is amazing but I have to pay a tribute to Ms Barbara Hajnos in particular. D&J Accounting is really lucky to have this lady on board. Not only she is absolutely professional in her work but also has very calming influence on people. Which is very helpful especially when it comes to important documents:. I recommend D&J Accounting&Tax Services to everybody. They respect their clients and are trustworthy. Very rare nowadays.

I highly recommend this business. I'm very happy with everything to do with how my tax return has been handled (both my personal return and business return). I would describe D&J Accounting as Professional, Thorough, Attentive& Friendly. I like the way this big company feels rather like a small family-like business itself, which makes me feel that there is a team of people there who know who I am, know what my business is, and genuinely want to help, rather than seeing me just as a client ID number.

I normally do not write reviews (I know you should give reviews if you use them! LOL).but I felt like a had to give a review on D&J after they saved my butt this year! Just like everyone I wait to the last minute and then I'm fighting the clock to get my taxes done in time. I went with a buddies' recommendation for D&J and was so pleased with the experience from start to finish. I arranged a meeting with the office, which was easy and within a day of my phone call!
I got to meet with both the owners which I thought was amazing given my tax situation is not the most complicated case but I welcomed the opportunity. They walked me through how my taxes would be handled and they even counseled me on several other things including investments and retirement. I will be going back for follow ups. Needless to say, I was happy with the whole experience and I'm even looking forward to a NICE return! Thank you, D&J Accounting, from a sunny warm beach with my return;)

Superior tax place. Competent-fast- fair- helpful! Tried a different place due to family using them and midway through the process we ran back to D and J! Best tax people we have ever used. They are also excellent for those who are small business owners or independent contractors.

Exceptional service my taxes were done in a timely matter and the knowledge of the staff was second to none. I felt confident my tax return was done in a manner that could get me back the most money possible. It was really encouraging that the staff was up on the most current tax laws and the owner of the company looked over my return to ensure I got back every dollar I should. I definitely recommend D&J Accounting for both tax returns as well as investing they have great knowledge on how to protect your nest egg. Great job!

Terrible! I supposed to get my tax form at the end of January and I still don't have it! When I tried to call, their secretary had an awful attitude and blamed the boss! This week I was promised to receive it at least on Thursday. When I tried to visit their web site, my anti-virus went off saying a threat was detected. Avoid dealing with this company at all costs!
