The first year I worked with Seattle CPA Professionals, they saved me several thousand dollars in taxes. Eric Kauppila is easy to work with and a great communicator. As a small business owner with clients across many states, I need someone I can trust to file my taxes and advise me on the best course of action. I highly recommend Seattle CPA Professionals.

My friend referred me to Eric, I spoke with him and he very generously gave me all the information I needed as a first time business owner tax payer. I was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism, and he was a nice person to work with. I would highly recommend.

TL;DR Big costs a lot for trouble and headaches for years to come.You can see the story line from my previous reviews. The latest update being I tried to make some changes to my small business taxes and the IRS responded by telling me that my business was not registered properly (it was missing the correct form to register as an S corp (Eric's recommendation in the first place). Additionally, the IRS forms require a wet signature which Eric never requested from me, so even the forms that were filled out (1120S) were not valid. "...the IRS confirmed that neither 2020 or 2021 are reflected as 1120s, this means ... the IRS has no filings for the LLC." It was already expensive when I paid Eric to file it initially, now I have to pay a new professional to fix it. Lots of money spent and major anxiety and panic that I would have loved to avoid. I could have saved myself thousands if I had done additional research and gotten a personal recommendation. I would never recommend Eric to anyone.

Eric and his team at Seattle CPA Professionals are top notch! Eric prepares taxes for my local small business, my LLC, and my personal tax returns. He is pleasant, forward thinking, and helps guide me in a positive and lucrative direction when handling my ever increasing funds. :) I would highly recommend his services!

I've worked with Eric for nearly 6-years. He's been vital in helping my small business meet its tax obligations, take advantage of credits, and guide hiring decisions.His responses are punctual, professional, and efficient. I'd highly recommend anyone looking for a CPA to consider the great staff at Seattle CPA Professionals.

It's all about the money with poor customer service. Any explanations and follow up are charged at $230 an hour. Eric said there would be no charge if there was a discrepancy between his return and the IRS- not true. I would NEVER recommend him to anyone. My financial advisor has heard poor things about him as well and has referred me to someone else.

Erik has been extremely professional and helpful in my financial needs. He continues to guide me through being a new business owner while giving great suggestions to aid in my success. I highly recommend him to any business owner. I will continue to use him and already feel less overwhelmed at the idea of filing next years taxes.

As a new business owner filing taxes can feel like a huge undertaking but Eric make filing easy. Him and his team were responsive and informative. They put me at ease right away and also explained the process in a way that helped me understand what was going on. I'd highly recommend them to any small business owner!!

Eric was very response to my request for a consult. We were able to set up a meeting quickly (he responded to my request for a consult on the same business day and we scheduled an appointment for me to come in within one business day of my request) and worked with me to structure my bookkeeping and tax strategy for 2020 and 2021. I relied on his expertise and he provided clear, simple explanations to back his recommendations. He was also very personable and made me feel comfortable.I went into the office and meet him in person and everyone was clearly abiding by the social distancing and mask rules. I felt comfortable in their space and I am excited to have found a new partner. You have to be able to trust the people who will be guiding your money decisions, so I appreciated being able to meet Eric in person and I look forward to working with Eric as I grow my business.

The first and last CPA you will ever need. Eric has helped me start 2 businesses and been INSTRUMENTAL in keeping them thriving through the start-up process, and helped to assure their continued success EVEN as the pandemic disrupted social behaviors and economies at every level. If you want a consummate professional that listens to the needs of you and your business, and rises to meet those needs without breaking a sweat, Seattle CPA Pros is the place to go.

I wish I'd decided to work with an accountant earlier! The CPA Pros team was very easy to work with and helped us a ton on our tax return.
They know how to navigate the tax system, provide clear guidance, and reliably get things done.

Eric has been helping us with our taxes for several years now.
Let’s be honest, filing yearly taxes isn’t exactly fun, but Eric always works quickly, streamlines the process and keeps us in the loop. Highly recommend - thanks Eric and team!
