Used MASH Accounting and Consulting LLP's services for my personal tax return this year, as things were on the complicated side and I needed it to be done professionally. The experience was nothing short of ideal. Andranik (or Ando for short) was knowledgable, professional and up to date with all the new laws and regulations. He was accommodating and made sure to cover every single question I had in details. His response time was phenomenal and I was always clear on what the next steps were, what was required from me and what I was to expect. Will definitely recommend this firm and Andranik

Been working with MASH for five years now, and Vagram and the team have been hands down the most responsive and sharp accounting firm I've ever had for my small biz and personal taxes. They are quick to respond, helpful explaining issues, and awesome using the latest tools and technology to get things done quicker. They handle taxes for both my small S-Corp (5 employees) and personal, and got our whole QuickBooks Online setup improved right away, as well as helping with tax strategy.

What I like most about them is that they take the time to get to know you and are extremely knowledgeable. Throughout the years, I've gotten to know both partners and I am extremely satisfied with the service and quality of work.

After receiving several incredible recommendations from friends we finally gave a call to Vagram at MASH. My husband and I are both medical professionals and extremely meticulous in choosing our CPA. We decided to switch to Vagram and it's been the best decision we have ever made. He's beyond knowledgeable, incredible, really knows his stuff and just the most down to earth guy!!! We can not say enough great words about him and his team! He helped us soooo much for everything. Even during the COVID-19 shutdown, he was there to help and guide us each step of the way for all the SBA
