Update- I've been going to Mike for our taxes and financial planning now for the past 10 years. He constantly delivers excellent tax, accounting and financial services. He is an expert in understanding all the tax loopholes and is able to guide you through it based on your personal financial situation and goals. Highly recommend Mike to anyone who is looking to build a roadmap for their tax needs!

Due to Covid, all of our transactions were conducted remotely. Mike was incredibly patient, professional, and answered my many questions. I highly recommend his services.

My husband and I have had Mike Safari do our taxes two years in a row. We have complicated taxes with lots different schedules that need to be documented. I am self-employed so I go to great lengths to keep track of my expenses. He is very thorough and goes through each section so he makes sure to get the numbers correct. He will look at the numbers and ask questions to make sure we are putting the expenses in the correct bucket. You don't want an accountant that just looks at what you have written down and not ask questions. He has your best interest at heart. He is very trust worthy so I very comfortable sharing our financial information with him. We will continue to have Mike Safari do our taxes in the years to come.

I do not recommend Mike Safari for any tax services. Yesterday at our 12pm meeting to get taxes done, he barely opened the information that I had sent to him two months ago. He began asking questions that I had already provided to him and began treating me very rudely and said 'I hope that you have your receipt than.....we will just have to skip this for now......try better next time.' The issue with Mike, and I have known him for a few years now, is that he doesn't prepare for the meeting. He opens your files right when you come in and asks you questions that you have already given him. How many miles did you drive for the business he asks. I already emailed that to you in your tax organizer. Mike asked me too many questions that where already answered so I immediately knew he was not doing his job. $450 - $500 is a lot to ask for poor service. Last year Mike also had several customer tax files out and open for me to see. I saw confidential customer files, SSNs and addresses. I warn you not to try this business and look elsewhere for better service. I kindly ended my relationship with Mike and will find better service elsewhere.

Mr. Mike Ekbar Safari CPA is a kind, well-educated man who truly cares about the effort he puts into your business or personal taxes. I could not be more pleased with his help in completing my 2019 taxes. My previous tax person canceled all of her clients days after Covid was discovered. I struggled to find another CPA and at the 11th hour found a man who did my taxes but lost my 1099's and then took my money and never filed my taxes. Mike completed my 2019 taxes correctly and eventhough they were filed after the deadline, I've found the best CPA in Orange County

Mike is a superb individual as well as a CPA. He pulled out all the stops to get our late and past due Corporate tax returns filed. He even worked over the weekend. He's not the cheapest but, he's definitely the best! He's a modest guy so he won't brag about all of the credentials he has. But they are many. His office assistant is pleasant to deal with as well. Always reachable and always calls right back. Also referred me to an excellent bookkeeping and QuickBooks expert. Thank you Mike!

I was searching for a new CPA and came across Mike on Yelp. He was very generous to answer my questions over the phone and offered a complimentary consultation to better understand my tax situation. Looking forward to meeting with him next week and will follow up on my experience.

I went to Mike for the first time this year and I can confidently say that I will be returning year after year for his services. As a new business owner, I was worried and stressed about having my taxes done but Mike held my hand through the process. He made it an easy and comfortable experience, which most people can't say about getting their taxes done!

My wife and I had Mike help us with our taxes for 2019 and we are happy we did! He was WAY more thorough then the basic HR Block type tax firms. Mike was sure to know everything about us to ensure we go all the deductions we possibly could. And it worked! We were worried we would owe a significant about this year but instead, we got a huge return! Thanks, Mike!
