The owner and his staff never cease to amaze me. It’s hard to trust someone for certain decisions. But their proven track history with me has proven to be better than my own personal judgement. I don’t know what I’d do without Lighthouse Tax. They’re the best.

I cannot recommend Amanda at Lighthouse Tax services enough! She was referred to me a few years ago and since then I have had the best and easiest experience with filing my taxes. Anything I need or any questions I have she is always quick to respond and very knowledgeable. Thank you for all of your hard work Amanda!

When we moved to South Carolina almost 6 years ago, Lighthouse Tax was referred to us as the place to go. Tom Rippy at lighthouse is the most fabulous accountant! He and his team are extremely efficient and courteous. Tom always takes the time to explain complicated things and he is quick to return emails. Although Lighthouse is a bit of a hike for us, and there are several businesses closer, we find it is worth it to us to keep going to them. If you do not yet have a tax person you are loyal to, go see Tom and his crew at Lighthouse Tax Services!

Lighthouse Tax Services Center LLC has been my tax preparer of choice since moving to the area. Working with Kirk has by far been the best service experience a customer could ask for. Beyond being extremely knowledgeable with aspects of military service and tax preparation, his professionalism and thoroughness put me at immediate ease. I highly recommend Lighthouse Tax Services Center LLC and Kirk Taylor for all of your tax needs.

Our tax guru - Kirk brought us to Lighthouse. After using him once, we were so happy we have stuck with him for over 5 years and have referred him to other military friends! Fantastic service.

I chose Lighthouse Tax because it is a local business whose customers have reported professional and personalized service. Add me to the list of Tom Rippy's happy clients - for the past two years Lighthouse completed returns for my late father's trust. For year two, I thought I might handle the return myself, until I tried to ask the IRS what seemed to be a basic question about how to classify the trust on the return. I was told by the IRS, "we don't give legal advice." I went back to request Tom's services at Lighthouse, and he had the returns ready in several days. I anticipated owing a little money in year 2, but Tom found I was instead eligible for carryover of a loss from the year before. This led to a credit on my personal return as well as for my sisters, who were also beneficiaries of the trust. He was quite patient in answering my MANY questions and also gave some advice on reporting the trust on my personal return. I went from 'hair on fire' to a smiling, repeat client of Lighthouse Tax. Well done, Lighthouse Tax, and much appreciated - thank you!!

Kirk at Lighthouse Tax Services is amazing! He helped this financially clueless gal through two very complicated tax returns and provided very clear, easy to follow directions for filing and paying my taxes! Kirk not only is a Navy veteran but a true tax expert. You can’t go wrong when you trust him with your personal or business taxes!

I cannot recommend Lighthouse Tax enough! Working with this team was such a delight from start to finish. I felt very well taken care and thecommunication was prompt. Tom is very knowledgeable across multiple areas. Plus, he had my file electronically submitted within a couple of days! I’ll never go back to a tax computer program. The process was super simple and easy! So glad to have found them!

We have been using Lighthouse Tax Services for many years. They understand that you have questions about how investments work beyond your typical basic tax returns. For those of us who work in the military and have dependents and spouses who have been self employed and also pursued higher education is not always easy to figure out how to prepare taxes correctly. I just drop off my documents and they always have made sure to give me nothing but the best service. I could maybe prepare my taxes myself but I will continue to use the outstanding services they provide due to the piece of mind I have knowing they look to give us the best return. Thanks !

I absolutely love this business! I have been coming here for over 3 years and I don’t ever plan on going back to fumbling through taxes by myself again.The staff here is warm and friendly and they always make me feel like family. The best part of my business here is the relationship that I am able to build so that when there’s a tax-impacting decision I have to make I can call for advice throughout the year and not be shocked on tax day.The fees are reasonable and you’re able to write them off on taxes the following year. Absolutely beats working with tax software or working with a “big box” tax center. I can’t recommend them enough.

I have been using Lighthouse Tax Service for the past few years and I have been very happy with their service. They are always professional, efficient, and always go the extra mile to make sure that my taxes are filed correctly. I have a fairly complicated set of finances and they have navigated all the pitfalls and hurdles. I especially like their responsiveness and attention to detail. Overall I would highly recommend their services!

I've been working with Lighthouse and Kirk Taylor for several years for my personal taxes. Kirk is incredibly helpful, responsive, attentive to details, and efficient. And a great guy! If I could give Kirk 10 stars, I would!

Worst customer service ever. Will continue filing with Turbo Tax. No reason pay an unknown fee they won't tell you how much it will be, no reason to not know how much you'll get back as well. Definitely not military friendly. I've been filing taxes on TT for 20 years, decided to try out a tax preparer this year since we moved here from England. They refused to tell us how much fees are and I asked if that's common practice and they just said well your husband wanted to compare how much you'd get back from us vs turbo tax (not the case, because our friends said he got back more with this company and he doesn't have kids so my husband never said anything of the sort he just said my wife files on TT every year, but if we're getting the same amount back then obviously we wouldn't be paying a fee because we'd go through TT) and the owners do not give fees quotes over the phone. Maybe this is common practice, maybe it's not but I'll just stick with Turbo Tax since I know every second of the time how much I'm getting back at the top of the screen and there are no fees.

Kirk Taylor makes my tax preparation an experience that I no longer dread. He is extremely thorough and probably the most knowledgeable preparer I have ever met. Truly deserving of the five star rating.Lighthouse tax service is a clean friendly environment that I will be returning to in the future
