We had used Turbo tax the last several years and didn't think we needed a CPA. Jenkins helped us get almost $2k more then what Turbo showed this year! Plus they have great service and friendly staff. Call them today!

The team at Jenkins CPA exceed our expectations! We are so pleased with the transition from our old bookkeeper to Jenkins CPA. We initially just sot after them for our taxes, but discovered they were so much more! We have them doing our personal and business taxes along with our business's payroll and accounts payable. They have gone above and beyond in anything we have asked assistance with. We are yelling it from the roof tops that everyone should go to Jenkins CPA! If I had a T-shirt saying this, I would wear it."I love my CPA"! Don't wait, call them today to schedule your appointment!

That was the most PLEASANT tax experience. Jenkins CPA was awesome. From the moment we walked in the door to walking out the entire staff was fast, efficient and friendly. I'll admit I was a turbotax person before but you always end up paying on those "free" filings anyway. I would always get frustrated because you would never know what half of the stuff meant. My wife and I just started a business and we were worried what doing our taxes personally and for the business would look like.
After working with Kevin taxes were a breeze. He layed everything out so we could be up to date and get the most out of doing our taxes. He made sure we understood our options to help support our business. I highly recommend them!
