Our independent affiliations with the Western Association of Accounting Firms, and with other similar prestigious global professional associations over the years, allow us to reach beyond our local resources and to pool the collective talents and expertise of many well respected firms like Isler.
Isler looks out for us in ways that have really improved our profitability. They trained us in the use of computers and software, and when new software comes along they think will benefit us, they pass it on. One software program they recommended cost us $250 and saved us $40,000 in taxes. It's our success, but it's their success, too.

What distinguishes Isler Northwest from others offering financial reporting services? After all, these firms are governed by the same professional rules and deal with the same financial reporting standards. While many of these firms are very good at what they do, Isler Northwest is not satisfied with being merely very good.

THIS COMPANY DOESN'T NEED YOUR BUSINESS! My wife needs an Oregon estate tax accountant and from Yelp research I recommended Chris Campisi at Isler Northwest. She entered her requirements on Isler's Contact Us and after two weeks of no reply, she called them - they didn't see the request so they took my wife's info and then called back saying "we're not taking any more clients, but you can call XYZ Company". Unfortunately, XYZ Company said they don't do estate taxes. It would have been nice if Chris called my wife and asked a few key questions - he would have

After selling a building they wanted me to let them invest it in their new Isler Wealth (Mis)Management Program. They lost $80,000 of my investment but they didn't have a problem taking their monthly fees out. So I lost part of my initial investment and all of the money I could have made if it had been done right.

I have had years of my tax’s done by the firm. I will stick with them. Their tax organizer makes collecting data for a filing. The send a document with my previous data so know what paperwork to look for.

I have been in business 27 years and I did not understand the value of an excellent accountant until I came to Isler Northwest. Their expertise, knowledge and tireless willingness to find answers inspire a confidence I did not even know I was missing. My company is not some faceless invoice to Isler; their thoughtful care of our accounting needs has made me understand an excellent accountant is a valuable trusted partner.

IslerNW has been providing accounting services for my business and personal for three years. Chris has been a great asset, providing ideas and always keeping me up to date with all the changes in the accounting world and how those changes affect my business and personal taxes. I am very happy with the high quality service I am receiving and I would strongly recommend this firm to anyone looking for professional accounting services.

I absolutely love working with Isler Northwest. It's been a few years that I've worked with them. Every time I go to the office
people are warm and fun to be with. Which actually surprises me coming from accountants. LOL. I definitely recommend them.

This is our first year with Isler Northwest, who took our account over after the retirement of our prior CPA. Each CPA has their own approach and style, so transitions can be difficult.
We have been extremely satisfied and are frankly surprised that this transition went so well. Not only is Chris Campisi a knowledgeable professional, but he is also quite personable. He has many clients yet somehow he makes us feel like we are his only client.
I highly-recommend Isler Northwest and Chris Campisi if you are looking for a human touch to a financial need that often loses that key element.

One the women who work here, her name is Emily Staker. She's the worst employee ever, I came in about four months ago and she gave me such a rude attitude. Working in this field you should never have a attitude with anyone. Never coming back!!!
