We've had Joe handling our personal and business taxes for a few years now. Nothing but professional and helpful. Others on staff, Ken and Liz in particular, are also very helpful in scheduling, providing documents, and the general info flow. Always provides excellent legal and accounting advice and support. Great to have a CPA with a legal background.

I have been going to the Dermer Law Firm for perhaps 10 years and I've had nothing but respect for Joe, his father Martin, and his work staff. Joe has helped me out tax wise with all my needs including multiple properties which I own. I highly recommend Joe and his team for tax purposes.

I have the deepest respect and appreciation for Joe Dermer and his staff at Dermer Law Firm. Joe successfully represented my best interest in a lawsuit. He has also consulted and worked on behalf of several clients that i have referred him for both legal representation and tax preparation. His diverse knowledge, talents, creativity and skill set enable him to serve his clients effectively and efficiently. Joe is also very fairly priced for his services and seeks to build long tern, loyal, relationships with his clients. Good guy, great attorney.
