Worst company I have ever dealt with! They didn't tell me I had a $6k payment going out with my payroll. Then when I tried finding out what was going on I had to fight them to get a response. Then they said they were going to reverse it without explaining it to me or even asking me what I wanted to do. 2 weeks later they completely missed my payroll and my team woke up not getting paid and it was a mess.Then I got charged $147 a payroll tax adjustment without letting me know. The owner Michael has not reached out once or shown any care that his company was messing with a paying customer. I am no longer a paying customer for this company, and would recommend that you find another accountant than use this company.

Can't speak highly enough of Michael Leonard and his team! I've been working with him for the past 3 years and every year he makes filing taxes SO easy for me. I've recently started up a new business and he also helped with the business name change. If you're looking for an accountant, Leonard & Associates is a no-brainer!

Leonard and associates are one of the best in the business at what they do I came in contact with the company in March of 2020 when I first started my lawn care business Michael's wife came across one of my business cards and they gave me the opportunity to showcase my work when I did a mulch job for them Michael liked my work and offered to help me get my LLC for my business that day I learned it's not about how hard you work it's s the relationships you make. Michael Leonard is extremely knowledgeable about what he and his company has to offer if you need help filing your taxes for your business personal taxes getting your LLC I highly recommend Leonard and associates

Michael Leonard began working on my taxes in 2015. He has done a remarkable job, asking questions, explaining things, and has been much more efficient that any box tax preparer I've used in the past. The firm's pricing has been comparable to previous tax preparers I have previously seen. Now that I use an actual accounting firm, when I have question, I have an actual person to contact year-round! A MAJOR PLUS in my opinion. So far, everything has been a WIN-WIN! Thank you, Michael and Leonard & Associates! you've continued to earn my business year after year!

Leonard and Associates are one of the best in the business I started a lawn care business in March 2020 when I lost my job for two weeks before they Dubbed who was considered essential. mr. Leonard's wife came across one of my business cards and gave me a chance to show case my work I did a mulch job for him and and he liked my work and that same day helped me get my LLC for my business CHAMPION LAWN SERVICE LLC. He's extremely knowledgeable about everything that is company has to offer. If you're in need of business taxes personal taxes or getting your LLC for your business he's the guy to contact. A lot of times its not about how hard you work it's the relationships you make. It was a great experience working with Leonard and associates CPAs. I highly recommend them.

Michael has been doing my taxes for the last 2 years. He has always been conscientious of my concerns and questions. I never leave feeling like my taxes weren't done by the best! He's super knowledgeable. I can not thank the receptionist enough for always making sure that i can get my appointments in by the time i need to get things done. Both receptionist were so nice and so helpful.

Very disappointing experience with Michael Leonard. My husband and I are new to the area and had an issue with our 2018 taxes, on top of that issue, as new home owners we wanted to be sure we did things correctly. Our first appointment was on Feb 11 and it went well. Michael called the IRS and asked for an abatement. When they only offered $200 credit he declined and asked them to give us a 30 day extension so he can file a form requesting more of the penalties be removed. This is when it went down hill. My husband and I received a letter from the IRS explaining our payment would be due in full March 13. We started calling the firm weekly to check in on the status. Finally getting through to Michael he seemed to have completely forgotten the 2018 issue, and had only completed the 2021 personal taxes. Obviously anyone can prepare their personal taxes on their own, we went to a CPA because we needed help with our issue. He let me know he'd call me back to get some time in the office within the "next day or so" (his words). March 13th came and went and we didn't hear from Michael. I called the IRS myself and at this point was not able to accept the previously offered $200 credit and actually now owed more because of another penalty assessed. My husband and I then just popped into his office to pick up our "completed" 2021 taxes and found two forms in our paperwork 1. stating what we owe for 2021 would be auto deducted from our bank account April 18th and 2. a form with instruction to mail a check to the IRS for 2021. I asked the secretary which one is it? Will the IRS auto withdraw the money or do we write a check... she had no answer for us. A mess! I asked her if she didn't know who did and she really had nothing to offer other than she couldn't ask Michael because he was in a meeting. Then she billed us $400. Thank you for... nothing? I'm so confused why we went to a "professional" CPA firm instead of HR Block. At the bare minimum HR block sat down with us while they prepared our taxes. Overall it was very upsetting, very disappointing, and cost us more money walking out then when we walked in. Thanks bud! Also, now WE have to sit on the phone and try to figure out whether we need to write a check or have money in our account by April 18th. A total pain in the a** and waste of time. If you don't have any issues and need straight forward taxes and that's absolutely it..... then maybe this might be the place for you.

Michael and his staff are such great people! Having a business and personal taxes to file can be overwhelming and stressful but they definitely put you at ease and make the process so easy and efficient. Scheduling with his receptionist was so easy she was very accommodating to our crazy schedules and offered various opportunities and ways for us to drop off our taxes. Already have our appointment for NEXT YEAR!

My wife and I were in dire need of a quality accountant to handle my 2020 taxes on very short notice. I was behind on filing, my business needed incorperating, and we needed help fast. With only a week to file my taxes, Leonard and Associates dove in to my mess and made it make sense! They filed my taxes, requested penalties to be waived, and are setting us up for a promining financial future! Thank you Michael and Gwen for the hard work, expertise, counsel, and peace of mind! We're so grateful! We wholeheartedly recommend Leonard and Associates to anyone in need of 5-star accounting services.

It's still that time of the year! If you haven't filed your taxes, and you are looking for more that just a Tax return, more like a profesional that helps you plan your path to financial success. Call Michael Leonard. It's been a couple of years now and I could not be happier!

As a largely freelance musician, tax season can be confusing and difficult. Michael takes all the stress out of the process, and is the most knowledgeable tax wizard I have ever known. This year, we finished our meeting in 30 minutes over the phone and I couldn't be happier with the results. Could not recommend highly enough.
