Michael intelligently explains your tax situation and helps you plan for the future. He helped me save money and get a greater return on my 2017 amendment. Reasonable rates and can handle investments, rentals and stock options on your taxes. I was doing my own for 20 years and now it is easier to let a pro handle it.

We've used Michael the last two years for our taxes and we're so glad we found him! He's great at explaining complicated "tax speak" and is always very quick to respond to questions. We'll definitely be using him again and I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for help with their personal taxes.

I highly recommend Michael White for tax prep. As a small business owner, I was confused about how to file taxes and he patiently explained everything I asked him. I was very impressed how quickly he filed my income tax return and how he kept me informed every step of the way. If you need help with your taxes, I recommend MJ White CPA
