Report
This firm is top notch. I have been using them for 8 years now and usually deal with Chris. In my opinion they could not be more professional and knowledgable. I will continue to use them for many more years. They always have my taxes done on time and they explain everything in detail. I could not be happier with them.

Report
I received a surprise in the mail: Guilmartin, DiPiro & Sokolowski, LLC sent me an invoice for $575 for "Bookkeeping and client meetings" during March of 2019. However, we only had a preliminary conversation on February 11th 2019 that lasted for 1 hour - which I understood to be complementary; they said they would explain a billing structure on our first followup appointment. I tried making said followup appointment but wasn't met with timely responses, so I chose to take my business elsewhere.
