Had a particularly unusual circumstance this year and needed someone to provide tax planning services. Reached out to Bharmal & Associates and they were very responsive. Met with Shoaib and he quickly assessed the situation, explained the next steps and promptly executed on it. We then had a follow-up discussion where he explained his analysis and recommendations clearly and concisely. I'll for sure be a repeat customer, using Bharmal & Associates for the tax preparation services as well.

We are self-employed professionals. We interviewed three CPAs and chose Bharmal Associates to file our 2019 and 2020 taxes because they responded promptly, seemed pleasant, and were organized with a web-based client portal. Due to COVID-19, all our interactions were by phone and email. They prefer expenses to be presented using a template format. Emails were pleasant and prompt. They reported our charitable donations in line-by-line detail on a form, instead of just keeping the scanned receipts; other CPAs did not do that. They have recommended that we donate quarterly to reduce the tax paperwork

Shoaib and team were very prompt at providing information and scheduling calls. He also provided insights into our tax situation to make sure we were getting the credits available to us.
His team was great at getting payment and paperwork to us in a timely manner. They made the process very smooth and efficient.
The portal used for documents has a solid user interface and it's easy to upload documents.
I would recommend.

Shoaib and his team just prepared our taxes. This is our first year filing with Bharmal and Associates and our experience was wonderful. The team is very helpful, knowledgeable, and offered great advice to us moving forward. They are easy to reach and really make you feel like you are being taken care of. We felt as though they went above and beyond and their fee was so reasonable for the service we received. We will definitely have them help us with our 2021 taxes.

My experience with this firm was so incredibly disappointing that it actually compelled me to create a Yelp account just so I could review them. Details are below, but in summary I strongly recommend you look elsewhere if you're seeking qualified, professional tax prep. I wouldn't wish this firm's apathy and indifference upon my worst enemy.
Here's the story. I first contacted Bharmal & Associates in August of 2020. I was in the process of incorporating two holding companies, and I needed a qualified tax preparer to guide me through my first return under my new structure

We have been working with Bharmal and Associates this past year after working with numerous CPA's in the past. I would say about 6 others over the life of our business. Not one of them comes close to how good this company is. I'm very impressed at the knowledge, expertise and professionalism they have. I'm appreciative of the advice and direction and I like the fact that all of my questions are answered thoroughly. Best of all, our regular meetings for the tax planning are a great help. It's extremely beneficial to know what's up ahead versus being in the dark.

I was extremely pleased with the level of personalized service that Shoaib and his team provided. In my search for tax planning services, Shoaib offered a complimentary live consultation where he took the time to understand my individual needs and tailored a plan accordingly.
Throughout the entire process from initial consultation thru completion, Shoaib explained things very well and provided great answers to all my questions. I would highly recommend them.

We read multiple Yelp reviews before we contacted this firm. However, this was really a bad experience.
My wife contacted them Thursday (8/20/20) and was arranged by Katherine for a Google Meet for Friday afternoon (8/21/20). Since this meeting was set for 5 PM, we cancelled other appointment to attend this meeting. Believe or not, even until 5:05 PM, the meeting was not initiated. What a big disappointment!
Then my wife called the office and was answered by Katherine again. She told my wife this should be a phone call instead of google meet but she did not explain why she sent an email invitation

Bharmal and Associates is the perfect combination of accountability you expect from a big chain and personalized service you receive from a smaller firm. I'm very pleased with the financial planning that I've been receiving from Schoaib.
You can tell simply from the way they speak that they are experts in their craft, I feel so lucky to have been recommended their services by a friend.
From simple questions to complex scenarios, Shoaib is able to communicate everything in a way that a young person like me (who has very little experience with such matters) can understand. I'm so

Bharmal and Associates is a father-son collaboration backed by a decent sized team of men and women. I came here to expand my understanding of the tax code, if you're looking to do the same then I recommend this to you.
It's important to state that service here is not cheap. I imagine those with the greatest potential to benefit from Bharmal's services are people with their own business, various income-streams/investments, or those looking to branch out into new financial ventures. I learned a lot about taxes over the last several years from various tax preparers, however, the amount
