Paramount Tax & Accounting - Rancho Bernardo

I can’t say enough good things about working with Max. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything clearly. You can tell he’s always up to date with the latest tax laws, which really helped me maximize my return while staying fully compliant. What stands out most is how personal and attentive he is — he really takes the time to understand your specific financial situation and goals. His professionalism, integrity, and proactive communication made the entire process stress-free. Whether you’re filing as an individual or running a business, Max is exactly the kind of expert you want on your side. Highly recommend!

We needed a new CPA for business and personal. Found max online. With the great reviews we chose him! From setting up the appointment to our tax meeting communication was flawless! Reminder appts are the best! Meeting with him was an easy and he explained all the numbers to us which I loved. Our tax burden was lower than expected and we walked away feeling confident about our meeting! Max is the best CPA

Everything you hope your accountant would be! So thorough, professional and very knowledgeable! We referred to him by friends. Very grateful for the referral. It’s been a long time since I had this positive experience with an accountant who was on top of their business and all the tax laws.

Max helped me out with my personal taxes this year, following me moving across different states! He was thorough and was able to complete everything within an hour, in what would've taken me several hours. One thing I wish they had their site was pricing. I didn't see it in any of the reviews which is why I'm typing my review. I was told on average this service costs $400-$700, depending on what you're filing. I wasn't aware of this until I asked about it. However, this does include access to a group for a year (maybe more, I don't remember) who will protect you if something goes south with your taxes. The other thing is that it was estimated that I owed a substantial amount of money for taxes, and when I asked for an explanation, Max noticed he missed a step and I owed about 15% of what was initially quoted. Which I also appreciate his openness to double-checking and quickly resolving issues. Overall, Max is a really great guy and will efficiently get your taxes done! Be sure to ask questions and know you're responsible for your own taxes - just saying, you're going to get the best if you ask away. Max is great at explaining things and it doesn't seem to burden him. If you're okay with spending that much money to relieve anxiety and pressure around taxes, I highly recommend him. Depending where I'm at next year, I'll probably go back and see him again! The four stars is mainly because of the lack of price transparency before going into the appointment.

Max was wonderful and easy to work with.I have worked with many accountants in the past and I must say Max is top notch. As someone who values professionalism, accuracy, and clear communication when it comes to finances, I was beyond impressed with the level of service I received. He was very helpful and knowledgeable as I have recently started on my own personal business venture. I found him to be incredibly patient, answering all my questions in detail and making sure I fully understood. Highly recommend Max!
