Great personal tax accountant out there?

Our taxes have suddenly gotten very complicated this year with a new baby and being new homeowners...
Does anyone have a great tax accountant i.e., someone who's up on the latest, returns phone calls, and doesn't cost a small fortune? We'd appreciate the help!

I know one CPA, but I don't know if he does personal taxes. You've probably seen him or run into him a time or two at a Social Wave event because he comes from time to time and I used to do the neighborhood association thing with him.

It's Steve Schnur and if this isn't his area, maybe he has a friend that he could recommend. I just sent him an email about this so hopefully he can pitch a word in here.

Mohler, Nixon & Williams, is a great firm and they do anything from personal to corporate taxes. Check out the website: www.mohlernixon.com

Tell them Irene sent you!

I have someone I've used for many years. Her name is Sharon Galat. her office is in Cupertino.

She has a masters in Taxation and is an enrolled agent as well.
Highly competent, knows her numbers and keeps up on the latest changes.

We have a small business and she handles both our business and individual tax returns.

hope that helps,
