I used Daniel to handle the merger (I merged law firms) to make sure our books/accounts were in order. He did an exceptional job advising us on how to make sure our accounts were still balanced after the merger. He does a great job keeping track of our payroll and bookkeeping so there are no mistakes.

Called and was told they were too busy to help me prepare my taxes. And that if I knew someone they would ask the accountant if they will see me? That's nice. You may have time but don't want to see if unless I know someone? I'll just go some where else then.

My friend and I came here to get our taxes done together. Although I had found Daniel on yelp and saw the high ratings, I was a bit skeptical and didn't get my hopes up too high about the service provided. He ended up exceeding my expectations. My friend and I both left more than satisfied with how the appointment went and we both felt that the communication with Daniel was so easy! I don't regret getting my taxes done with him at all and I definitely recommend going to him for anyone who needs help with their taxes.

Thank you so much Daniel :)

Best CPA I worked with. My taxes are quite complicated. Previous CPA always messed up and needed multiple revisions. I am so happy that I found Daniel Lu. Make my life better!

Daniel was quick to respond to my initial inquiries. We then setup a meeting and he walked me through my tax situation in a clear and understandable manner. I had many questions but he was patient and professional.

I felt comfortable moving forward with having Daniel handle my taxes this year, and would return again.

I have been doing my tax with Daniel for 2 years now, and I don't think it can get any better. I've been using TurboTax previously but my tax situation got a bit tricky and need some help from CPA. While other agency rejected or don't know how to handle my tax, Daniel gave me a clear picture of how I should handle my tax. I appreciate that he always explain things really well.

Also, I sometime do have some questions regarding tax related decisions. We can have discussion over it that helps a ton for me without any charge. I don't know if he wants me to advertise this though

Daniel is our preferred CPA for Homestreet Bank Kearny Mesa. He is of course friendly and helpful. But honestly the best part of working with Daniel is that he is knowledgeable. He always knows the answer. We love him.

Daniel is a very good man and a good CPA. He was recommended to me by my banker when I just started my own business. I'm so glad that I found him! He's not only just taking care of the taxes, but he take care of more problem of you like a friend. He helped me build a lot of basic sense of running a business and I really appreciated it. I would definitely recommend Daniel!

I found Daniel through a recommendation of a friend. Not only that Daniel is extremely knowledgeable in his field, he has the best work ethics of anyone that I personally know. Efficient, prompt, and professional, I cannot ask for more from my tax advisor. Running my own business is already hard enough for me and having Daniel really taken off that load of my shoulder. I usually don't write a review unless I think the service has exceeded my expectation and in this case, it did. I highly recommend Daniel as a CPA.

Okay so me and my husband made an appointment at this place at 2 o clock this Friday. We called him 5 days prior to this appointment. On the day of our appointment, we got a phone call pass 12 o clock from his office telling us they have to reschedule us to 4 pm because of unknown reasons. We have other plans and it is really unprofessional for them to call less than two hours ahead to notify us. We made it clear we can't make it other than 2 o clock. And somehow his secretary got scared and Daniel picks up the phone. While talking to him he told us direct quote "I don't give anything

Daniel Lu is the man!

If you're looking for a trustworthy and honest accountant, Daniel Lu is the one for you! He is detail-oriented and will make sure to maximize your tax return.

Daniel was able to fix my 2014 taxes I did it myself on Turbo Tax (Don't recommend it) and got me an extra $400 refund!

My 2015 return was done within an hour and the experience was very pleasant!

Go see him if you need individual or corporate tax services. He and his staff will take great care of you!
