My experience with Ken Creal was nothing but favorable. I hired him as a forensic accountant to investigate cash flow available for child support because my ex husband owns his own business. Ken was accurate and fair to ALL parties in his calculations. He was forthcoming and conducted himself with the utmost professionalism in court. If you are looking for an "accurate and honest" accountant, Ken Creal is your man. If you want someone to "manipulate numbers" and provide "false truths" you best look elsewhere. What's more, Ken was willing to work with me

We are so fortunate to have Creal & Creal be our accounting firm for over 12 years! Ken Creal has been our personal accountant this whole time. Creal and Creal also handles a small family business, so this firm handles both our personal and business taxes!
My husband and I have often said that Mr. Creal is one of the most honest, smart and clearly a true man of integrity to work with. We have referred our very dearest friends to him because we know that Creal & Creal will give them the attention and knowledge you are expecting from a top notch CPA.

Ken Creal has been my family's accountant for over 30 years. We have the utmost respect for him, as well as for his office staff. He is an excellent CPA and more importantly, an honest, moral human being, who cares deeply about his clients and goes the extra mile to help with whatever issues come up.
The world could use more people like Ken Creal! I am confident that you will find him to be both a wonderful CPA and an upstanding individual.

I've been fortunate to have Ken as my accountant and financial advisor for the last six years. Ken not only helps me with my taxes but also provides great financial advice for my family. When we bought our first house, Ken helped my wife and I figure out what we could afford and made the home buying process so much easier.
Ken cares for his clients like family and goes above and beyond to help them. I drive over an hour each way to meet with Ken annually and I look forward to the visit every time. You would be smart to use Ken Creal and his team.

I was referred to Ken by a divorce attorney a few years ago. Ken, Kimberly and their team have been invaluable to me in my litigation with my ex-wife. They recently helped me through an IRS audit of returns prepared by my prior accountant, and it could not have been more successful. Most of my family members are now clients and we are all very happy with their services.

Ken and staff have been my accountant since the early 2000's. You will not find a more knowledgeable and friendly staff. While the office is small you feel like you're getting the service of one of the bigger (more expensive) firms in LA. Whether your needs are a simple W2 tax return or a corporation flowing into a personal and trust (mine started with the former and has evolved to the latter) then you will not go wrong.
