"The team at CH & Associates has handled both our business and personal tax returns providing a tremendous peace of mind thanks to their years of experience. As entrepreneurs we appreciate their professional yet personal service, always prompt communication, and accessibility; very important to us with the time sensitive nature of tax filing and financial reporting."
"The saying goes brewing is 90% cleaning and 10% paperwork. Many days it feels the other way around - I think we pay 6 different types of tax. Bill and Jason are extremely knowledgeable about the code and more importantly understand our business and our culture. They are proactive and responsive, 2 characteristics we value highly in our partners."
