I had met the team initially for my business filings, they were courteous, patient, and walked me through a process of getting the best plan for my business needs. I liked them so much, I moved my personal filings and tax planning to their offices as well. If you are looking for a well rounded corner to corner approach, Beck & Ibarra are best in the business!
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional tax advice I received from Parr & Ibarra CPA. Their team took the time to thoroughly review my financial situation and expertly advised me on a variety of tax benefits I could leverage to significantly lower my tax liability. They were not only knowledgeable but also proactive in identifying opportunities I had overlooked, ensuring I took full advantage of every deduction and credit available to me. Thanks to their expert guidance, I was able to maximize my savings while ensuring everything was done in full compliance. Their attention to detail and commitment to helping clients save money truly sets them apart, and I’ll definitely turn to them for all my future finance needs.
Parr & Ibarra CPA and their team are exceptional. Before working with them, I struggled with my personal taxes due to the complexity of being a freelancer. I had several years of unfiled returns and was receiving numerous letters from the IRS—I feared the worst. Thanks to their expertise and guidance, I was able to get everything filed properly, catch up on my obligations, and get back in good standing. Their knowledge is unmatched, and their communication throughout the process was outstanding. I highly recommend their office to anyone in need of reliable, professional CPA services
