RA's Review Sourced from Google
As an accounting firm I would give them 1 star. I recently discovered a litany of deductions they failed to consider. You will be given an EA, which is just a glorified tax preparer. They will know nothing and be slow to reply. You might as well get your taxes done by H&R block or a proper independent CPA. If these folks do your taxes, get prepared for a larger tax bill. I strongly advise against it.

Mike was recently employed with my company as head of HR and helped keep 2 of our properties in order. He was always available for my team, always knew what to say and most of all became a great friend. He not only cares about the staff but is genuinely involved in all things HR. Great asset and we are sad to see him go.

Vitoria's Review Sourced from Google
I previously worked at a company where Mike was the head of HR. Mike always had time for the staff, implemented some of the best employee-friendly policies of any company I have ever worked for. He handled with kindness and integrity difficult issues during stressful downturns and cuts the company was making. He was always very positive, knowledgeable and very supportive in addressing everyone’s concerns.A few years later, when I found myself in career transition, I reached out to InventivHR to see how he could help. He had just started offering job search assistance service and committed to do everything he could to help me and get my resume in front of as many hiring managers and recruiters as possible. Knowing he couldn’t guarantee a placement, I signed up for the service and had him redo my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile. I’ve had contact with potential employers, and though none have been the right fit, I am confident that the work that Mike has done have put me in a better position to find a new role.

Used them for years , horrible cust support. When I finnaly got rid of them at the end of 2024, i also had workers comp. They never stopped charging my co. for workers comp. I called again and found out they lied and have no record of that request. but the Payroll side was canceled. How is that even possible. called again. finally they stopped deducting for workers comp. I demanded a refund , they said ok. So what they did was do an audit for 2023, and 2034 for no reason. instead of just refunding me for 5 months of charges. They billed me for audits .2023 charges for an unnecessary audit where 1181.37 , for 2024 charges were 1670.20. are you kidding me. this has to be illegal. what in the heck is going on. 28581.57 for unnecessary audits. stay very far away form this Company !!!! This is why people hate insurance company's. Such underhanded practices. My Lord...

Fabiana Visconti's Review Sourced from Google
The customer service from this company is absolutely horrible and frustrating. Every time I request information, I receive inconsistent answers, and they often seem to misunderstand my inquiries. It takes countless emails just to get my point across. Additionally, they need to recognize that Florida has speakers of different languages, and not everyone expresses themselves in the way they expect.Furthermore, it's important for them to understand that executives often have assistants handling these matters, but they frequently choose to communicate directly with the heads of the companyJust to clarify, I am sharing this review based on my personal experience, not representing my company’s perspective.

Everything You Need to Know Before Hiring the Best Accounting Firms in Miami, Florida
Why should I hire a Miami accountant?
Hiring a Miami accounting firm ensures you work with local experts familiar with Florida business and tax rules, who help ensure compliance, reduce liabilities, and tailor strategies to Florida’s market conditions and tax environment.
According to statistics, 38% of startups fail because of poor cash flow management. Without a clear picture of how money moves in and out of your business, you’re navigating blind.

Local accountants also offer personalized service and face-to-face accessibility, often providing a deeper understanding of regional economic challenges than national firms.
They can save you time and money by managing complex tasks like tax compliance, bookkeeping, payroll, and audit support so you can focus on growth.
Miami accounting firms also help identify deductions, credits, and tax-saving opportunities you might otherwise miss.
Small and medium businesses that use professional accounting services have been shown to achieve an average revenue increase of about 11.5% per year, with sole traders seeing around 8.9% gains and mid-sized firms up to 13.7%, which demonstrates measurable growth linked to expert financial management.

Small business owners working with accountants report saving roughly 9 hours per week on finance tasks on average, which leaves more time to focus on core business activities and growth.
Firms with strong accounting practices are 70% more likely to make effective strategic business decisions, translating into better planning and potentially higher long-term profitability.
According to a Versapay report, businesses in the US generate 400 billion invoices, and the number increases by 5-15% each year. That’s why scalable accounting solutions have become essential for keeping businesses running smoothly.
What should I expect to pay for accounting services in Miami?
Depending on the type of service, you can expect to pay $250–$500 for individual tax returns, for example.
Bookkeeping in Miami usually runs from about $95-$175 per month for basic services, with more comprehensive or higher-volume packages commonly priced between $350 and $950+ per month, according to RemoteBooksOnline.
As TABCo.CPA suggests, some firms charge monthly packages of $795-$1,795 for recurringbookkeeping, tax filings, and basic advisory support, with higher tiers (e.g., CFO services) reaching $2,895+ per month or more.
How do these firms handle IRS and Florida Department of Revenue notices?
Accountants in Miami provide IRS and Florida DOR notice response and resolution services, acting on your behalf to manage audits, correspondence, and compliance issues, so you don’t have to deal directly with tax authorities.
They help prepare your financial documents, file authorizations like IRS Form 2848 and Florida DOR Form DR-835, and communicate with the agencies to clarify issues and reduce penalties or liabilities.
Simple correspondence audits may finish in a few months, while more complex office or field audits typically take 6-12+ months, and complex cases, including appeals, can extend up to ~2 years or longer.

When you receive a federal or state notice, local CPAs and tax professionals can represent you before IRS revenue agents and Florida Department of Revenue examiners, organize your records, attend meetings, and negotiate outcomes like audit adjustments or penalty abatements.
The taxpayer generally has 90 days to petition the U.S. Tax Court (150 days if outside the U.S.), and accountants prepare the response and coordinate appeals or negotiations to meet this deadline.
For Florida tax assessments from the DOR, firms often prepare protests and representation within 60 days from the notice date to file an informal protest, with extensions available in 30-day increments if requested on time. If no timely protest is filed, the assessment becomes final, and further appeal rights may be lost.
Accounting firms in Miami also offer IRS audit support and notice resolution services to address underpayments, discrepancies, audits, or collection notices, minimizing stress and potential financial impact.
How do I choose the right firm?
Follow these steps to make an informed decision when choosing a Miami accounting firm:
- Define your Miami-specific needs and goals
Clarify whether you need help with Florida sales tax, Miami-Dade surtaxes, IRS notices, international tax, or ongoing bookkeeping so you can target firms with the right local expertise. - Verify Florida licenses, credentials, and compliance
Confirm the firm employs Florida-licensed CPAs and is in good standing with the Florida Board of Accountancy, and check Google and DesignRush reviews from Miami-based clients to verify their trustworthiness. - Look for Miami and South Florida industry experience
Prioritize accountants with proven experience in local industries such as real estate, hospitality, healthcare, logistics, or international trade, which are common in the Miami market. - Review case studies and client profiles
Ask for examples of Miami or South Florida clients to see how the firm handles Florida tax rules, audits, and growth challenges similar to yours. - Compare service models and availability
Make sure the firm offers the level of access you want, be it fully virtual, hybrid, or in-person meetings at a Miami office, and that it supports secure cloud accounting tools. - Request proposals and compare pricing clearly
Send a request for proposal (RFP) to compare hourly rates, monthly packages, and included services, as Miami accounting fees can vary widely by firm size and specialization. - Schedule consultations and ask direct questions
Use the consultation to discuss turnaround times, communication style, and how they handle IRS or Florida Department of Revenue notices for Miami businesses. - Choose transparency, responsiveness, and local insight
The right Miami accounting firm should clearly explain fees, respond quickly, and demonstrate strong knowledge of Florida and Miami-Dade tax requirements.

What questions should I ask agencies before hiring one?

Relevant Background
- How long have you worked with businesses based in Miami or South Florida?
- Are your accountants Florida-licensed CPAs, and who will be my primary point of contact?

Related to Your Project
- Have you handled projects similar to mine in scope, size, or industry within the Miami market?
- What is your typical timeline for completing work like tax preparation, cleanup, or monthly reporting?
- How do you identify tax savings or compliance risks specific to Florida and Miami-Dade?

Miami CPAs can guide businesses through Florida’s 6% state sales tax, often with local surtaxes averaging about 1% more in many counties, which affects most retail sales and taxable services. They also specialize in corporate tax compliance, where C corporations face a 5.5% state corporate income tax on income earned in Florida, even though individuals pay 0% state personal income tax.
Do accounting firms work with international or foreign-owned businesses?
Many firms support international and foreign-owned businesses offering cross-border tax planning, compliance, entity structuring, and foreign investment reporting expertise.
Some Miami tax advisors report working with clients from 30+ countries, particularly in Latin America, North America, and Europe, providing a broad global footprint for international compliance and planning.
