I found an amazing CPA! Stephanie is seriously the best - easily 5 stars! She's super quick to respond whenever I message her with questions.
What I love most is how she breaks down complicated tax stuff in ways that actually make sense. When we needed to restructure our company, she walked us through everything step by step. No jargon, just clear advice.
She also saved us from a total nightmare with the Florida Department of Revenue. We were completely stuck until she stepped in and sorted it all out!
Honestly, Stephanie goes way beyond what you'd expect from a regular accountant. She's always looking out for us and suggesting smart moves we wouldn't have thought of.
If you need a CPA who's knowledgeable but also actually cares about your business, Stephanie's your person. Can't recommend her enough!

Stephanie has done my taxes for the past 2 years (personal return). She is easy to work with and the process is always smooth. Stephanie is accommodating as well and has a positive attitude. She is also very knowledgeable and has a masters degree in taxation, if I’m not mistaken. I trust her judgment completely.
Good experience!
Update June 2023: Steph has done my biz, personal, and trust taxes for years now. I don’t trust anyone else. She is phenomenal with her customer service, fair pricing, and attention to detail. Also she responds to you and communicates. Note that I’m very particular about who I work with and Stephanie exceeds my expectations every time.
I did stray one year and went to someone else who did not do a good job and charged me double the price. That I regret and back with Taxes Tampa now!

I don't know if communication was lost or never sent, but multiple requirements of us were never received - including the cutoff date for submitting our information - which caused us to miss filing on time and requiring an extension. When asked, we were told that information was provided, but I could not (and still can not) find that information anywhere. We didn't realize we were after the cutoff date until we reached out to ask about the status. After learning that we needed an extension, multiple dates were given for when our taxes would be filed. When dates were missed, we again had to reach out for clarification and a new timeline.

We are a non-profit that experienced rapid growth and facing an increasingly complex landscape of grant restrictions and financial reporting requirements - we were in need of an experienced consultant to support us in leveling up and streamlining our bookkeeping and finance processes. Dean connected us with Nancy from his team, and Nancy has been absolutely incredible. She not only guided us in untangling our financials but also in updating our processing and implementing best practices. She's an excellent teacher and communicator in addition to being extremely knowledgeable and unafraid of taking on complex issues. We are so relieved to be in a much stronger spot with robust systems for achieving the financial clarity and reporting that we need to make sound decisions and stay compliant with funders, thanks to Dean and Nancy.

What can I say about Barta Business Group? I work in the live events industry, and to say that the last few years have been temultuous would be an understatement. They took the mess I had made while closing one business, and opening another, and laid it all out straight. I was running on a very basic invoicing software, and they got me up to speed with something professional I can use with any bookkeeper, and my business is running so much more smoothly because of it. Thanks guys. Highly recommend!

We're a small, national, nonprofit member association with a cranky database and lots of internal financial quirks. Barta Business Group stepped in to clean up our books and get us on the right track. Within a few short months, Dean was able to create better systems for financial accountability, wrangle our database into clear and consistent shape so we knew where we stood on income and expenses, provide support to our nascent board treasurer, and most of all, do all of this with a great attitude. We love working with Dean and feel confident that our books are in the best of hands.

Marya Samuelson
Review from Google
1.0★
Marya Samuelson's Review Sourced from Google
CSI Accounting may try to spin this by saying they offered me a new accountant or that taking onboarding fees from my account—after our relationship was terminated—was warranted. It was not.
The truth: I received no tax advice, no business guidance, and no real onboarding. The only thing they provided was payroll, which I paid for separately. My assigned tax person came to our meeting without reviewing my file, admitted to being new to the systems, and openly struggled to use them.
Charging me for this is indefensible. Withholding services, then helping themselves to my business account after termination, destroyed any trust. Whatever they claim, the fact is simple: I paid for services I never received.
I hired CSI Accounting to support my business with the expectation of receiving high-quality service based on their confident promises. Unfortunately, the experience was deeply disappointing. Despite the strong sales pitch, they failed to deliver on key aspects of their service.
When I raised concerns and requested a fair negotiation regarding payment for services that were never rendered, they abruptly ended our relationship “effective immediately.” I then began formally disputing those charges through my American Express account. Rather than respond to the dispute in good faith or allow the process to play out, CSI took an entirely inappropriate step: they bypassed the dispute process and directly accessed my business checking account—without my consent—to withdraw the same funds.
This withdrawal occurred more than a week after our business relationship had already been terminated and without any form of authorization from me. I did not give permission for this transaction, and their actions represent a serious breach of both trust and professional ethics.

CSI has done a great job handling our payroll services. Everything is always done on time. Online tools are smooth and intuitive, and our rep, Emma, does a great job helping us stay compliant with new laws and regulations. She saved my butt this week when I entered my payroll but forgot to submit it. Thanks Emma!

I have used CSI for all of my payroll, bookkeeping and accounting needs for over one year now. I also use them for my taxes, both personal and business.
I really appreciate the fact that it is all in one company. They all work as a team and support each other in their roles. Burt, my accountant, has been instrumental in my growing business, taking the time to really hear my concerns and answer all of my questions. He provides me with insightful ways to save money and build up my business. Alex, our payroll specialist, is spectacular. Alex manages a very very complex payroll (everchanging) with such grace and support. Bert, our payroll specialist supervisor is awesome, and jumps in when needed. My books are always concise, thank you, Erin, and questions needing answers are relayed to me in a way that works for my busy schedule. I would recommend CSI to any business looking for that type of personable and knowledgeable support for your growing business. Thank you, CSI. Here is to another year of growth!

I wish I could give 6 stars! Kevin is exceptional - both personable and incredibly informative, which sets him apart from many accountants we’ve worked with in the past. Our tax situation is somewhat complicated, so having someone who can clearly explain where we stand and put us at ease makes all the difference. Kevin delivers exactly that level of service and expertise.

Kenny Legge's Review Sourced from Google
I couldn't be more thankful for Kevin and his team. We had to move to a CPA a few years ago when we created our Trust, and it was a pulling teeth type scenario each year to complete our taxes. Moving to Kevin this year was the best financial decision we have ever made, and our checking account is far happier. They combed through our last CPA's submissions, found errors, and highlighted how to improve. Thanks to their due diligence and thoughtful approach, we received the most significant refund we have ever had, and still paid less than we did last year for tax preparation. If you use anyone else in the desert, I would rethink that decision and go with Kevin and his team. You won't regret it! A++++

He took care of me even though it was last-minute. We got everything filed on time and his communication was excellent throughout.

Monthly transaction volume reaches 40-50 or more entries
Payroll, tax filings, or reporting begin consuming operational time
At those stages, manual bookkeeping becomes inefficient and increases the risk of errors or missed compliance deadlines.
Accounting outsourcing is also driven by efficiency. Around 65% of businesses outsource finance and accounting tasks to free up internal resources and focus on growth.
As requirements expand, they provide structure, accuracy, and regulatory oversight that small internal teams often struggle to maintain.
What accounting services do most top accounting companies offer in the US?
The best accounting firms in the US typically provide a mix of core financial, compliance, and advisory services.
Common offerings include:
Bookkeeping and bank reconciliations
Financial statement preparation
Payroll processing
Accounts payable and receivable management
Tax planning and federal, state, and local tax filings
Many firms also offer:
Budgeting and forecasting
Cash flow and financial performance analysis
Audit preparation and internal controls assessments
Compliance support under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
Many businesses outsource several accounting functions at the same time, which is why US companies typically offer these services as bundled, ongoing engagements rather than isolated tasks.
This approach aligns with the scale of the finance and accounting outsourcing market, which stood at $54.79 billion in 2025.
How much does it cost to hire top accounting firms in the United States?
The cost of hiring one of these firms in the United States depends on business size, transaction volume, and service complexity. Typical pricing includes:
$300-$800 per month for basic bookkeeping and reconciliations
$150-$400 per hour for specialized CPA services
$800-$2,500 per month for comprehensive monthly packages (payroll, reporting, tax support)
$2,500-$5,000+ per month for mid-sized or higher-complexity businesses
At a macro level, the global accounting outsourcing market is expected to exceed $80 billion by 2030, as companies pursue cost efficiencies of 20-60% compared to maintaining full in-house accounting teams.
What additional costs can I expect from these types of companies?
In addition to base retainers, they often charge for specialized or non-recurring services, such as:
Year-end financial statements
Multi-state or corporate tax filings
Audit preparation
System migrations
International compliance
Advisory or consulting projects
Other common add-ons include payroll setup, budgeting assistance, and financial forecasting.
For many growing businesses, these services increase total annual accounting spend by 20-40% beyond base fees.
While this raises short-term costs, outsourcing often reduces overall operating expenses by eliminating the need for full-time internal finance staff and minimizing compliance risks.
What do I need to know before I switch to a top accounting firm?
Switching companies usually involves a transition period of 4-8 weeks. During this time, businesses should be prepared to provide:
2-3 years of financial statements
Prior tax filings
Payroll records
Access to accounting software
A brief overlap between outgoing and incoming firms is common and helps:
Resolve open items
Prevent reporting gaps
Ensure continuity of compliance
Planning the transition outside of peak tax or reporting seasons further reduces disruption and operational risk.
