Commencement Bay CPA PLLC

I went to him for a consultation. He was only concerned about charging me an insane amount of money. When I finally walked out and said no thank you he threatened to charge me for the consultation. So he wanted to charge me for not listening to me and wanting to charge me for procuring documents I already had and could get myself. I got a lawyer for my tax issue and filed the taxes I needed for a fraction of the price elsewhere. If you are a small business that doesnt have money to waste do not go here. He was a not professional and my experience was borderline abusive.

I was extremely satisfied with John Chitaley as my CPA. He did my taxes and managed to get a higher refund than what I had originally expected. He caught my mistakes and explained the errors with my complicated tax situation. He takes the time to answer all your questions in detail. I find him to be extremely knowledgeable and thorough. I would highly recommend him as a CPA!

John has been my tax preparer and financial planner for over 5 years. He is very honest and knowledgeable on the tax code, prevailing market conditions, and their impact on current and potential investment vehicles. I can't think of anyone I would trust more with helping me manage my finances.

As a small business owner, I consider John to be a very important and valuable person on my team. We initially went to John for our personal tax returns, and what followed was a journey of restructuring my personal and business finances based on his wise, measured advice. John is always thorough and responsive. His rates are affordable, and with Quickbooks/WebEx and other online capabilities he's accessible no matter where in the country I am. I highly recommend John!
