I've had the pleasure of working with Chip for six years now and I highly recommend his services. Chip handles all of my tax problems and complications with ease. He is quick to return a call whenever I have a question. Chip is by far the most thorough accountant I've ever done business with. Thanks a million, Chip!!

Chip is great. He has not only helped Iraq Veterans Against the War keep our books for years he has personally helped me with my crazy tax situation with the love of a friend and the professionalism of a mom and pop corner store but the speed of a large corporation.
