I dealt with this firm for many years. They are very thorough and efficient. I think they are a bit expensive, but they have served me well.

I've been with this company for several years. As long as it was just straight personal taxes they were fine. Charged a lot of money for something that shouldn't be difficult but I agreed to it. Should have just done Turbo Tax. I decided to pay for a CPA so when things got more complicated I would have someone with experience to guide me through it. What a mess. Made a $400 error that the Feds caught. They were not aologetic. Yesterday I found out that they didn't file a form last year that I thought they should have. They say it was outside the scope of our agreement. There was no prior communication to that effect. They blamed me for the mistake instead of at least saying they should have been clear about what the parameters of "personal taxes" were. Terrible communication and never any apologies. Way overpriced. Taking my business elsewhere. Keep looking.

I've been using Altan Sakai for several years now for bot my personal as well as my business accounting needs. When I became a small business owner I needed to step up from the small one man shops that I had been using to a firm with the resources that could handle my diverse and more complicated accounting needs. This year I also became the executor to my parents estate which created additional complicated accounting and tax return problems for me. Tom Bode and the associates at Alten Sakai have done an excellent and highly professional job handling a variety of issues for me and I highly recommend them.

Great Service! We have worked with several people at Alten Sakai regarding tax and business advice, retirement planning as well as tax preparation and filing. Nelson Rutherford and Tylor Leinweber especially have stood out with sound advice. They are quick to respond to inquiries, explain things well & always meet needed deadlines. Both for personal use and for our business, I definitely recommend this firm.

I used Alten Sakai for a 2018 Tax Return. The firm made several mistakes with my tax filing due to improperly reading instructions on several forms. They told me I owed money, but both Federal and state authorities caught the mistakes from my accountants at Alten Sakai and ended up refunding me. That's right the IRS caught several mistakes made by Alten Sakai which amounted to several thousands of dollars. When approaching them about the mistakes they made, they were not apologetic but very defensive and said "we tried our best and we are glad someone caught the mistake". I also asked them to provide advice on how to manage my tax liability and they responded that they are not equipped to provide this advice and to please consult with a larger CPA firm. This firm is also not cheap, and for all the money you pay them you would expect better attention to detail and a higher level of service (I paid them ~ $3k for their services)! I highly recommend using someone else for tax preparation.
