What others are saying about Julie

KerryAnn

I highly recommend Julie! She came in just in time for my husband and I and assisted us with our bookkeeping, creating lines of accounting, and filing our taxes in a timely manner for our business. Julie stood out because we knew we could trust her and she was honest about the entire process. We will certainly be using her for all our needs in the future!

Sylvia

After a previous, very frustrating year with my former accountant, Julie Merrill demonstrated tax preparation does not have to be painful. Her on-line tax organization system made this year's process much less stressful. She was prompt with inquiries, prep work and updates to my business, personal returns. Julie is also a pleasure to talk with. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone new.

Jason

This was our first year using Julie for our income tax prep. Our prior long time CPA retired and we had to scramble to find someone new. A good friend recommended Julie and we're glad she did. Julie is friendly, responsive and thorough. She made our tax prep painless and answered all our questions throughout the process.
