Shane has gone above and beyond in delivering accounting services for me. Not only has Shane helped me with accounting but he has been my go to for all finance and business relations. I trust 9financial with my whole heart. I am able to turn to Shane at anytime and my business would not be what it is if it weren't for 9financial. Smooth, efficient, pleasant experience and has earned my FULL trust. Best in the game. More...

In my 25+ years in business, this is the best CPA Firm I've ever worked with. Shane and Keith handle all my entertainment and social media clientele along with my multiple corporations. No matter the time of day, I can always count on a prompt response. Extremely gifted at tackling complex scenarios and transactions. You really get the most out of 9Financial when they can help you in a full service capacity to save on taxes and minimize audit risk. Once I started this, I realized how my money and spending habits would impact my everyday life instead of thinking about it only during tax time. More...

After meeting with several CPA's regarding my complex issues, I was able to get everything resolved! Shane and Keith were so accommodating and really took the time to really dive into years of issues. They setup my corporation and established an entire plan of action to save thousands on taxes. Life savers!! More...

They are the most knowledgeable CPAs with corporate and personal tax experience. They will work with you, give you appropriate tax advice, and answer any questions you may have no matter how trivial. I always felt comfortable talking to them and they always respond to my emails and calls fairly quickly. I needed help opening my S Corp and they did it all for me! More...

Best place to do your taxes. I came from another tax preparer and thats good i went to 9Financial for second opinion and they fix my taxes and had to pay less. My daughter also went with them and got her refund in a week, is really fast and accurate. They are very knowledgeable and professional. Will come back again for sure. Try them and you won't regret.

9Financial started doing my taxes about 5 years ago. I am a freelancer in the Arts & Entertainment industry. They are always punctual and professional with reminders, communications and paperwork. They have gone above and beyond in delivering tax and accounting services for me, something other tax firms are not known to do.  They have my full trust and loyalty. More...

I just realized I've never left a review for my favorite tax guys! I've been with 9Financial for a few years now. Keith and Shane are running a stand up operation. These guys call back right away, text back right away, and reply to emails just as fast. I just sent out a late night email at 10pm and got back a reply within the hour! Any time I need them, they are there! I am the worst when it comes to my business taxes but luckily these guys have it all on lock for me. Ladies and gentlemen, this is how you run a 5 Star business!

Taxes can be really intimidating and Keith has totally put my mind at ease. I couldn't be happier with my experience with their team. They answer their phones! I can't tell you how far that goes as a client! To know someone is going to respond, and when they do they have a solution, is absolutely priceless. There is a reason they have stellar reviews. Thank you so much Keith! More...

I received a shocking tax bill on a Friday evening and it nearly gave my a panic attack. I called several tax firms but Keith at 9Financials was the only one who had picked up my call right away and scheduled an appointment on Sunday. After discussing the case on Sunday, Keith assured me that it will be taken care of. Within a week, he clarified the problem with IRS, redid the tax, and mailed it to IRS. In the process, he was always responsive to my emails, even late at night. His prompt responses gave me the peace of mind I needed in that situation. Because of his professionalism, I was able to go on vacation knowing it will be handled. Several weeks later, I received a letter from IRS confirming my tax bill had been corrected. It was a pleasant and simple experience working with Keith, really appreciate the help! More...

I can't say enough good things about 9Financial and Keith Bien in particular. He is knowledgeable, calm, kind, and caring (and funny, too). He has been such a tremendous help that it has actually made my life less stressful and happier. He is someone I totally trust. I am grateful to have found a CPA who seems to genuinely have a true interest in my financial story, who is more than happy to work with me (a person of the pencil and paper sect), and who is willing to keep me on track. Whew; what a relief. Keith, you are so appreciated! More...

Shane is the man!  He's very knowledgeable and helped me open my business.  I didn't know anything about the codes/regulations, he took time to explain all the details and advised cautiously on all the legal matters.  Fast and productive, my business opened in 2 days after speaking to Shane.  Thank you very much!

Shane did a great job for us! We had been handling our increasingly complex taxes until we knew we needed a professional, but I had no expectation that the result of his services would be this dramatic of an improvement! Not only did he assist us in handling our multiple 1099s, but he helped find errors made in my previous return at H&R Block that enabled me to refile and get a refund.

The real reason for a five-star review is the service and confidence we have with Shane. From the first moment we walked in, he was courteous, professional and really listened to our issues. We were delighted with the level of attention to detail and to our personal needs. He was extremely timely. We typically got same-day responses, quick requests for specific data, and a level of patience and attention I would not have expected. He's also setting us up for a more efficient 2015. Honestly, work with him once and you'll stay with him. I've been burned many times before, and I am grateful I found 9Financial.

My business was a complete mess. I hadn't done taxes in years, I had no way of tracking all my expenses, and my employees were getting paid by check and cash and it wasn't documented. I was on the hook to pay tens of thousands in taxes that I was not able to write off, and they helped completely organize my company. Shane met with me and went over a plan to complete the bookkeeping, payroll and taxes for my company. Since the work has been completed, I now feel I have full control of my business, and I am now planning to expand. It's a big step to make the choice to organize your life and business in this way, but with the financial stuff out of my mind, I can properly grow my business. THANK YOU AGAIN!! More...

Keith is amazing! I came to him at the very last minute to get my taxes and book keeping in order and he instantly put me at ease! Not only did their team get me back on track fluidly and effortlessly, he really took the time to understand what I needed and to also communicate what he needed from me. The appointment reminders and follow up emails are so helpful, especially for a business owner and full time mom who is constantly being pulled in a million different directions! You will absolutely not regret hiring Keith and their team and I can't recommend their services highly enough!!! More...

I've been working with Shane & Keith Bien for my business & taxes & am very happy with their personal financial advice, help & always available service. To have people who actually care about what they do & have the integrity to care about what I do, beyond just working for works sake, is a rare find, in this day & age.I've owned & operated my store for over 26 years & have been working, since I was 8, so I have plenty of experience with financial advisers & tax accountants.I'm hesitant to recommend these gentlemen too highly because I don't want them to get too busy for me- however I know that their personal service is forever available because that is the way they do business.10 stars.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Keith Bien, CPA. Keith was patient, professional, and everything we could've asked for in a CPA. He gave us information, guidance, and did not lose patience once as we asked different questions. We have worked with other CPAs before that make you feel like you're a burden if you ask even one question. Keith was the exact opposite, he was kind, knowledgeable, and never made us feel anything negative for asking important questions to ensure the best turn out. All in all, I would definitely recommend Keith and 9Financial, and we look forward to working with him for a long time to come! More...

I can't say enough about these guys.  I lost my CPA of many years suddenly and was desperate to find a new one.  My taxes are a bit complicated -- small business, freelancer, entertainment.  I met Keith Bien of 9Financial through a Neighborhood app.  He reached out and at first I was thinking, hmmm...this guy's reaching out to me.  How good can he be.  The answer?  THE BEST!  I met with him and was instantly impressed with his knowledge, his warm personality and efficiency.  In two weeks he had done two years' worth of Federal and State returns better than I've ever had them done.  I was truly amazed!  I highly recommend this company. I've done enough business law to recognize a talented and caring individual.  He's the kind of guy who develops personal relationships with clients for life and looks out for what's best for you.  And the cost was very reasonable.   I'm not easily impressed.  I am now.

After years of doing my own taxes, I ran into some issues with the IRS.  Confused and a little overmatched, I enlisted the help of Shane and Keith at 9Financial. They were able to quickly resolve my tax issues for very reasonable fees.  Looking back, I wish I had gone to them years ago. Besides avoiding IRS penalties, I probably would have received much better tax refunds.  Going to a CPA from the start would have saved me a lot of money in the long-run.  The fees are beyond reasonable based on the fact that their services pay for themselves and then some. Trust me. It's been great getting more generous checks from Uncle Sam with 9Financial handling my taxes! More...

I started my company a couple years ago and never took the time to do the proper accounting. My tax situation was a mess, my personal and business charges were all mixed up and I needed someone to help me go through all my records and get organized. I researched a few different companies and had negative feelings about their approach: "Just estimate and give me the numbers for tax." WHAT?! Um, I don't want to be audited! Anyways, I found 9Financial and Shane was very accommodating to my needs, informative and very helpful. He made me feel comfortable and it finally felt like the right place to get the work done. 9Financial helped me with organizing my personal and business bookkeeping, prepared my taxes, and I am now in the process of officially organizing my business into an LLC! I also liked the fact that they have a real CPA doing the work and not just someone that got a tax certificate like H&R block. I would HIGHLY recommend 9Financial, and trust me, once you sit down and meet, you will know you made the right choice. Thanks again!!! =) More...
