Client Testimonials

I used Gary’s services to file my 2012 income tax return. This was my first year having an accountant do my return, as I have always done it myself using TurboTax. However, this year I had cancelled debt from my old primary residence which I was forced to convert to a rental property after relocating out of state.

While it didn’t cost me anything to do the short sale, the income tax consequence from the cancelled debt, roughly $50,000 in my case, was enough to move me from the 15% tax bracket to the 25% tax bracket. Needless to say, I was concerned about that.

Finances were already tight and my husband and I are expecting our first child this fall. So the possibility of owing income tax was stressing me out. However, Gary was great at relieving my fears.

He is extremely knowledgeable, answered all my questions and was very thorough. I knew I was in good hands. He kept in constant contact with me throughout the process, keeping me updated on the progress of my return and letting me know what paperwork he needed to complete my filing.

In my mind, best case scenario would have been to not owe any taxes. Second best would be to only owe a little. Well, you can imagine my surprise and delight when Gary told me I was actually due a refund of a little over $2,700.00!

To top it all off, I found Gary’s fee for service to be fair, competitive and affordable; especially given the complexity of this type of return. I am so glad I did not try and go it alone this year. I am extremely pleased with Gary’s service and would recommend him highly to anyone, in fact I already have. If you have cancelled debt from a short sale or foreclosure, don’t freak out. Take a deep breath and call or email Gary. I am grateful I did.

Divorce CPA discusses early signs of Hiding Assets

Divorce CPAs are generally called in once separation of the couple occurs. But sometimes one spouse starts dividing marital assets early. If you’re not the spouse that handles the finances, it can be hard to tell.

Once you think Divorce is a possibility, it behooves you to take an active interest in your finances. While I’m concentrating on pre-divorce financial manipulation, there are plenty of other reasons to understand your marriage’s financial dynamics. Here are some suggestions.

Get copies of back tax returns

If you can’t understand them, get a CPA to help explain the specifics. I’d look for:

  • Changes over the last few years. For example, does Schedule B show fewer sources of interest, perhaps indicating money was put in a different account?
  • Suspicious activity. Does Schedule D show excessive stock sales? Does Schedule A show gambling losses? Does Schedule A show bank deposit box fees? Is there an additional mortgage listed on Schedule A?

Spouse’s Pay Stubs

Is there a raise you didn’t know about? Maybe money is being accumulated in hopes of not becoming a part of the marital assets.

Bank Statements

Sometimes a pattern of ATM withdrawals appears. One spouse may be hiding money with friends or family. Maybe the direct deposit of a paycheck decreases, perhaps indicating money is being siphoned off.

Credit Card Statements

Are there expensive dinners you didn’t eat? Trips? Flowers? Cash advances?

I’m a divorce CPA with a virtual office. I hope you never need me. But if you do, I offer a free phone consult at (910) 399-2705.
