4 years agoThis is my second year filing my taxes with DeFreitas & Minsky. I was referred by a friend. Honestly, It’s a blessing sent. Everyone there is professional and knowledgeable about tax codes. They even keep me abreast via email whenever there’s a new tax law and what it entails. I feel safe and sound when doing business with them.
True professionals and attentive to all of my needs. Manny, Melissa, and Michael are all super helpful. They took the time to help me with my taxes, financial planning, and estate tax needs. I highly recommend them.
We’ve been working with Manny for the last 10 years. Whenever we have a question he’s there and if he’s in a meeting during Tax Season (it happens), Jay is always there. Thank you Gentlemen.
