Josh was very helpful. His thoroughness helped account for numerous things turbotax missed when I previously used it. Because of Josh's help I was able to file a complete and accurate tax return. Would recommend

Taxes were done thoroughly, transparently, and quickly. We got the math fully spelled out for us, and he answered all our questions. Reduced the price given that our situation ended up being less complex than we initially thought. Not the warmest/fuzziest of interactions, but that's not what I'd expect from an accountant in the first place. More...

Found Josh online because I needed someone to quickly help me with my taxes this year (I own a business that finally made money and had no idea how to incorporate that into my taxes). His services were excellent and I highly recommend! More...

I'm just getting started with Oakton, but so far they've been super responsive and the technology they're using is awesome. It makes communication and document transfer much simpler and more convenient. Based on what I've seen so far, I'd highly recommend Oakton Tax & Accounting. More...

Josh is a true professional. He knows the tax code inside and out, and takes the time to explain even the most complex situations. No problem getting an appointment, and he answers follow-up questions usually the same day. He doesn't cut corners, and the return is prepared professionally, accurately and timely, at a competitive price. HIghly recommended! More...

My husband and I met with Josh on Monday morning. We had a great experience with him! Our situation was a little different and he helped us right away and answered all of our questions. He even offered to take care of our filing right away since he didn't have an appointment until a little later. Thanks again Josh and we definitely look forward to working with you in the future!

I moved to the area late 2015 and had to do taxes from two states.  I found Josh/Oakton Taxes  online, gave him a call, and he was amazing.  He even gave me advice on setting up car tax (new to VA so i was clueless) and other wisdom that was vital for a new VA resident.  Josh was willing to go over and above the call of duty to get my taxes done.  So...I asked him to do my taxes for 2016.  Gave him my last W2 and within 2 hours...my taxes were done.  He's great in communication too.  Always answers my many questions...and is patient.  I hope I can find others in need of an awesome tax advisor...and will highly recommend Josh Pavia.

This guy rocks!!!I have worked with a several accountants over the past decade in DC, and he is BY FAR the best. Â I have 2 rental properties (one in different state), investment accounts, and an error on my W-2 causing my state taxes to be withheld from the wrong state! Josh handled all this wonderfully. Responds promptly (even when I don't), very knowledgeable, reviews and explains things as questions arise, thorough, ethical, superb! I can finally stop looking for a new accountant! More...
