Services
Edwin, owner of Aldaris CPA, is licensed to practice public accounting in Washington and California and is an active member of the Seattle business community. In addition to his tenure in public accounting, Edwin worked in house for a variety of corporations and tech companies including Live Nation Merchandise and Archer Mobile.
We are committed to providing close, personal attention to our clients. We take pride in giving you the assurance that the personal assistance you receive comes from years of advanced training, technical experience and financial acumen. We prefer to take a proactive vs. reactive approach to tax services.
It is no obligation. You will walk out with the knowledge you need to tackle whatever tax, financial, or accounting issues you are having. You should keep your financial and tax records for at least three years as the IRS typically has three years to examine your records. You will need to provide personal information to verify who you are before you can view the status of your tax refund.
Aldaris CPA Group helps ensure your business is properly structured to optimize cash flow, limit tax liability, minimize risk, and steadily grow, all while remaining fully compliant with local, state and federal tax laws and regulations. Why overpay taxes or expose your company to unnecessary fines, fees, and compliance violations?
Get bookkeeping services, customized for your business, under the strategy and senior management of your Aldaris CPA. Common problems include missed payments on bank loans, missteps with tax reporting and payments, and missed opportunities to effectively manage cash flow. Improper bookkeeping also creates headaches and unnecessary expenses at tax time when your CPA tries to prepare your returns from unorganized files.

I don't often post reviews, but I had such a good experience with Aldris that I wanted to take a moment to share.
I was previously a client of a top nationwide competitor and let me say that Edwin trumps them hands down! He's accurate, undeniably knowledgeable, fast and responsive. The team at Aldaris was easy to work with and took the time to provide in-depth knowledge of tax laws and implications. Thanks to Edwin and his team, doing my taxes wasn't as painful as the rest of 2020. :) If you want professionalism and attentiveness, the Aldaris CPA Group is for you! See you guys

Edwin is simply the best, not only in West Seattle but in accounting. Personal, joint, company, all that. Edwin is incredibly diligent and caring, and gets down to the bottom of every case. He works with integrity and empathy. Use him for whatever tax / accounting matter is important to you. You won't be disappointed. You get what you pay for in the best ways.

When you receive a notice from the IRS it usually isn't fun news. After not seeing any success in getting in contact with the IRS especially during Covid I decided needed accounting expertise to help decipher the tax code and provide a plan going forward on a somewhat complicated trust matter. From my first meeting with Edwin I knew I found just that expert. He was very knowledgeable and explained complicated matters in a understandable way. His staff was very professional and took the necessary steps you would expect of a highly skilled operation to take. I would highly recommend

Having been an accounting client of Aldaris CPA Group for years, I know the accountants at this CPA firm will always get my personal and business returns in on time and get me the highest return amount from the IRS as possible.
While I shouldn’t be, I’m always surprised when I owe less than I expected when I engage Aldaris to do my tax returns. 🙂
They’ve done my bookkeeping for years - and Aldaris has *always* better than ANYONE I’ve hired in the past to do my books.
If you’re in McAllen, hire Aldaris CPA Group now! You’ll be happy!

Edwin is outstanding. Following the recent passing of my mother, my siblings and I were looking for an accountant to do both an individual and estate return. Edwin was exceptional. What stood out to me about Edwin was his constant responsiveness (and pleasantness) to answer even the most simple questions to allow us to organize the necessary paperwork during this difficult time for us. While cost was not the most important thing to us, Edwin's fees were outstanding and transparent. We were grateful that he did an excellent and very timely filing of multiple tax forms.

I'm an architect and realtor running my own small businesses and have been working with Edwin at Aldaris CPA Group for the last two years to help with my tax filings. He's extremely knowledgeable about small business tax structures and is very helpful in giving strategies to optimize my business and personal finances to be more tax efficient. He's willing to take the time to explain tax questions clearly and goes out of his way to be helpful beyond just doing a tax filing. I would be glad to refer him to friends and clients.

For the past 15 years, I've felt like the Goldilocks of clients as our CPAs have been either far too cold (terribly inattentive) or far too hot (crazy hyper-vigilant) When we found Edwin, I finally felt like there was someone who was looking out for our best interests. I think this is because he seems to really enjoy what he does and is very good at it. He is the CPA for the law firm I work for and has been extremely flexible, helpful and personable. Edwin was willing to conference in to a call I had to make to the payroll company for year-end issues. The payroll company wanted to charge me

Edwin was great! Very friendly, knowledgeable and time efficient. I came to him with a BIG mess of taxes. He was able to help me sort everything out, he explained everything in a way that I was able to understand and he completed my tax forms is a very timely manner. I would definitely recommend visiting with Edwin, you'll definitely be in good hands.

I needed a new CPA after converting my business to an S Corp and Edwin came through, completing three complex returns in a very reasonable amount of time. He's always available to discuss a question I have and responds quickly and confidently to our inquiries. I was looking for a CPA that would do his best to minimize our tax burden and plan for the future and I'm happy to have chosen Edwin. Looking forward to many years as a client.

I wanted to provide an update on my review.
I had Aldaris CPA Group do my 2016 tax return. I went into this thinking I would owe a bit in taxes for the year, but in working with Edwin, he found enough in my tax return where I actually received a refund - I can only say great things about my accountant!
Edwin is worth every single penny you invest in his accounting services.
