Mark has made tax season go from stressful to stress free! On our first visit he discovered that we had been significantly overpaying the state and got us 3 years of retro $$$ back. From that day on it's been nothing but exceptional service. Great guy to sit and chat with too. ?

I went to Allan Bakker for years for my income taxes. He was great, friendly, and affordable. Unlike Tax Doctor who charged me an arm and a leg. Unfortunately, Allan is no longer here so I might have to move on and find another accountant for my taxes.

We will not be using this company again after this company messed up our taxes 2 years in a row. Both years, we placed multiple calls to them asking when our taxes will be finished/filed & kept getting a "Soon" or "Today", only for us to go into the IRS website that then showed our taxes had not even been filed. Was then told by this firm "Sometimes it takes a few days or even a week for the IRS to show we filed." Uh, no it doesn't according to the IRS, our friends & other past experiences. Only after repeated calls (at least a dozen) did we see movement. From start to finish it took about 2 months to get our refund after they would either forget to submit them or they got pertinent details of ours incorrect. Plus, they told us incorrect tax information. For example they told us if we did business with firms out of state, we'd then have to file taxes with every state those businesses reside in. Totally incorrect! So please, if you don't want to have the major headaches we had with Accounting Associates West, use any other firm.

We can't recommend Mark Bakker highly enough. He does quality work, goes the extra mile, and is just a nice guy.

Timely, professional service, but costly for someone with a relatively uncomplicated return!

Allan made doing my taxes easy and painless. I've done turbo tax for years and he helped me maximize my refund, more than I've had in years. And paid about the same that I would with online services. He also answered all my crazy questions that I could never figure out by looking online. I'll be referring everyone I know to him!

I took several years of back taxes to be done this past summer to Mark Bakker. He was kind and took me on and alleviated a lot of my fears and distress about what to do. I'm finally up to date on my taxes and I'm going to continue to go see Mark yearly going forward.

Mark did my personal and business taxes in about 12 min. I questioned several times if he needed more info and his response was, "No, it wouldn't make any difference anyway." I found enough errors that I had a second person look at them who found enough deductions to get me another $2100 back in refunds. Since he did my 2015 as well, I'll be looking to have that one amended as well. At least now I know.
