Having been serviced by many accounting firms through the years makes me particularly well qualified to extol the virtues of Jarus&Co. Not only are they very responsive to all my needs but they are also available to offer comforting help in dealing with the scariest initials on earth ,the IRS. I have been with Ryan's team for 6 years and am amazed how they always are on top of the latest technology. The recent pandemic really put everybody in a bad spot but Ryan and his team were able to maneuver through all the obstacles and keep things on track.

I wanted to personally update my review following another 2 successful years of working with Ryan Jarus and his team (since my last review). They've recently assisted with moving states and all the tax implications that go along with this. I cannot state how valuable Jarus & Co is to all aspects of taxes/business planning.

Contacted Jarus for assistance . I was a bit taken back, because the experience was not consistent with the reviews. I was in need of accounting help for my corporate taxes and was hoping to establish an appointment. Apparently Jarus and Co is not accepting any new customers. I would think this would be listed somewhere on the website. But arrogance and hubris is a strange approach to business. Not a good look. Cannot say this is an establishment worth engaging with. It does appear that the people who are exclusive enough to work with Jarus are happy. I guess I missed the boat when Ryan Jarus

I feel so GRATEFUL to have found this company!! I came from another accounting firm who under-delivered, didn't communicate, and I felt like I had to manage them. It was such a frustrating experience.

Jarus & Co. is an AMAZING company and an ASSET to my company. They are one of the most efficient and organized companies I've ever worked with and they have an incredible system. I always get a monthly report, on time and unprompted. They are ON TOP of the books and take the time to learn about my company expenses. Whenever I have ANY questions they answer, many times walking me

I'm the owner of a small business in Orange County. Our company has been working with Ryan for the past 3 years. He has helped not only organize and clean up our corporate taxes but also being a sound financial consultant for our business and personal side of things. Ryan is such a pleasure to work with. I've introduced a handful of business alliances to Ryan and they now work with him and feel the same way. Ryan makes you feel like your not just a number but he truly sincerely cares about our business and seeing us succeed. We could not give a better review and working with Ryan has been one
