We want to help you pay the minimum tax under law.

Arizona Tax Specialists, LLC takes pride in giving each of our clients personalized service.  We have access to the latest tax information to assist you with your individual or small business (sole proprietor or pass through entity) needs.  Click the link on the bottom of the page to contact me directly so that I can help you navigate the tax code this year.  Don't wait until Dec 31st!!  Your first 30 minutes is free with no strings attached.  Call me at (928) 329-1040 for more details.

If you would rather do your own taxes, that's fine too.  I am available to answer your tax questions so that you can file yourself!  My standard billing rate of $60.00 per hour applies for this service, with an initial minimum of $60.00.  After that our fee is $15.00 for each additional minute.  You only pay for the face to face time with me, and I will provide you a written summary of my recommendations for your return. 

If you decide to just have us prepare the return for you, we'll happily waive the consultation fee.  We only ask that if you do use our consultation services that all fees be paid at the time rendered.  We cannot invoice for consultation.  Sorry!!  We accept local checks and all major credit cards.   

How we can help you.

The National Association of Enrolled Agents states that more than half of the tax return preparers in the United States are unlicensed or untrained.  Do you really want someone like that doing your returns or providing you with tax advice?  You deserve better! 

I am a graduate of National Tax Training School and have met the educational requirements for registration with the California Tax Education Council to prepare California returns.  In addition, I am currently preparing for the IRS Special Enrollment Examination [SEE] to broaden my tax horizons. I am also taking advanced studies in federal taxation.  I take great pride in my work.

Did you know that by some estimates 25-50% of all tax returns contain errors?  Before I began doing my own taxes I would find errors in my preparer's work almost every year.  One year the IRS mistakenly awarded me a credit that was not due me.  I called this and pointed it out to them.  After a while I began thinking "Why am I paying other people to do this for me?"  Ever since I have been doing returns for me and my family.

I can help you by either preparing your return for you based on information you provide, or I can help you prepare your own return.

For the past few years I have been an amateur securities trader, so my tax scenario at times gets quite involved.  I have also lived overseas and have been self employed.  My objective is to help you pay what you owe.  . .and no more.  I treat each return as if it were my own.  Each situation represents a new challenge for me and rest assured that I will do my utmost to carefully research every question posed. 

30 Minutes Could Make the Difference Between Paying or Getting Paid This Year!!

If you call or e-mail me we will set up an appointment to either meet in person or by phone.  I will give you a 30 minute session in which we will examine your current tax situation and determine if any changes can be made to help you save money.  If you are already doing everything possible to minimize your tax liability I will tell you and you will have spent nothing.  Many people, however, are unaware of the many credits and deductions they may qualify for.  Homeowners in particular should itemize as this practice alone will usually yield more deductions from adjusted gross income than the standard deduction alone. 

In some instances I will need additional time to consult with the appropriate revenue code before recommending that you take a certain position on your tax return.  If this happens during our initial consultation there will be no extra charge.

My fee for consultation after the first 30 minutes is $60.00 per hour, which is also my minimum charge for consultation time.  That said, I can usually answer most tax questions in the first 30 minutes, which means you can receive valuable tax advice for no cost!  I'm convinced that once we talk you'll come back with future tax questions.   My goal is that you will be delighted with the service you receive from me and my firm!! 

Additional fees may apply if extensive research (more than 30 minutes) is required, but these will not exceed $60.00 regardless of the amount of time spent.

Please refer to the "Payment Options" page to see how convenient it is to pay for my services.   

Clients who engage me to prepare their returns are entitled to receive 30 minutes of free tax consultation each year.
