My husband and I decided to hire an accountant for our taxes for the first time this year. Our taxes were just complicated enough that we preferred to trust the details to an expert. Uncertain of what to expect and who to choose, we did a lot of internet research and asked friends for recommendations. In spite of the recommendations, we reached out to Steve and his firm because of a mailing we received offering a $50 discount--we love coupons.When I called in mid-January to make a consultation appointment, Steve was out of the office and I scheduled the appointment with the woman who answered the phone. Steve could have seen us that week, but we pushed it off a week to better fit our schedule. I loved that he was able to fit us in so quickly. That evening, Steve called me. At first I was worried the woman has made a scheduling conflict or something, but he just wanted to say hello and touch base. Steve said he prefers to chat with all new clients. This *really* won big points in my book for this firm. I felt like he cared about us and our business. This is very important to us.When we went in for the consultation, Steve was friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of our questions with specific details. Since it was mid-January, we did not have all of our tax forms at that time, but he took what we had and we were able to send a password-protected scan of everything as it came in. We only needed to make one visit to the office--which is a huge plus for me.Steve recommended we wait to file until mid-February as a lot of the tax software was still being updated for the tax year changes. It worked out well as our final paperwork arrived to us mid-February.Once we submitted all the paperwork, accountants from the office asked several follow-up questions and requested several other pieces of paperwork. At the time I was frustrated that it wasn't asked for up front, but now, a week later, I don't really care. They did a great job, handled our semi-complicated tax year (wedding, house purchase, home rental loss, large amount of charitable giving) and got us a refund larger than we anticipated. Overall, we are quite satisfied with both the professionalism and timeliness of this firm.

What is a Chartered Accountant?
The title 'Chartered Accountant' and the letters ACA or FCA, indicates that the person has undertaken a minimum of three years in-depth training, passed a series of examinations in financial management, auditing, business strategy and taxation as well as committing to continuing professional development.
As opposed to specialising in tax returns, a Chartered Accountant instead will focus on providing accurate records of all financial transactions for an individual or business. Consequently, this type of accountant is more likely to be found employed in a more commercial capacity.
What should I consider before deciding on my Accountant?
Hiring the right Accountant for your business may take a bit of time. Who you choose to look after your accounts is vital, especially if you have plans to expand as you will need to look for someone who will get more involved in the financial side of things the bigger your company gets.
Research - Start with the company’s website and look at the accounting services they offer with an eye on what you might need in the future. If you choose an accountancy firm that doesn’t have the expertise to help you as your business expands, you will end up needing to finding another accountant.
Create a shortlist - Create a shortlist of three or four firms you
think are a good fit and arrange face-to-face meetings with all of
them. In addition to the fees, you need to find out about the
services they provide, as well as their customer services.
Fees - Some Accountants charge by the hour while others operate on a fixed-fee basis. You need to be clear before selecting an Accountant for your business on how their fees are calculated.
Qualifications - It is important to ask questions about the
qualifications and experience of the people who would be dealing with
your accounts. You need to know that you could work with them, trust
that they are on your side and are continually looking for ways of
adding financial value to your company.
Accounting software - You will want to check that any systems you use are familiar to the accounting firm. Your current method of financial reporting may not be the most effective one for your business and they may recommend systems that can do it better.
Financial jargon - If you are not an expert on finance, your Accountant needs to understand this and be able to communicate with you in a clear and concise manner.
You can be confident that any of the Accountants listed on Bark will be a safe pair of hands for your finances.
How do I check an Accountant’s credentials?
Before you choose an Accountant, you could ask to see examples of their work, read testimonials and ask to see references of past work they have done.
The AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) qualification is the minimum level of qualification required for most kinds of accountancy. To become a chartered accountant, you need to obtain higher level qualifications such as the ACA, ACCA or CIMA, which will allow you to become a chartered accountant.
You could also look at their profile page on Bark and view reviews from past customers as well as examples of work that they have completed. This might also help you get some ideas for the types of services you need.
