Hy and his team have serviced our tax needs for over 23 years! Initially, he helped my repatriation and its complexity dealing with foreign taxes in moving back to USA, multiple states and countless tax related events in our life. His professionalism is manifested through his responsiveness and great work.

Report
Hy is a pleasant guy but his services cost more than 3x what I was charged elsewhere for last minute filing. We had to pay more on taxes when we worked with him. My current accountant just flipped who of the two of us was as head of household and we saved 2 grand. If you've got extra money you can continue to go to Hy and you'll have an honest, pleasant accountant but if you want to save money go elsewhere.
