Often we get asked the question what's the difference between bookkeeping and accounting? Bookkeeping is involved with the day-to-day processes of running a business-time sheets, data entry, the process of accumulating, organizing, storing, and accessing the financial information base of a business.
To run a business, you have to keep your books accurate. How far behind are you? How accurate are you?

We can take responsibility for all of your bookkeeping needs or partner with your staff.
None of us like doing taxes, but it's something we all have to do.

Our team of tax preparation experts can make your next tax return a breeze. California state and Federal tax codes change from year to year.

I'm very grateful that Paragon Accountants in Banker's Hill was recommended to me by friends this year after my former accountant retired. They had a great experience with Erica Martinez (CEO), so I called to make an appointment straight away. I was linked up with Oliver Ng (Senior Accountant) for my tax appointment in February 2020.Â
I uploaded everything into their portal (super easy) a few days before and Oliver had everything ready to go when we arrived at the office. Our return was complicated having just started an S-Corp with 2 different businesses (2 DBAs) under it in 2019

Place was a total waste of time, 3.5 hrs to be exact. All I needed was a bookkeeper to close out 2017 taxes, 2018 and record up to date 2019 books. I have no idea why this was so difficult. I’m a business owner I don’t have time to create spreadsheets, organize receipts etc I need someone who can do that for me and unfortunately Paragon was not it. I need a place to keep ME organized, generate reports keep me organized because that’s what a bookkeeping service is supposed to do right. Easy.

Paragon was incredibly helpful - from start to finish! Taxes are complicated and become even more complicated when you get married (joint filing) and buy a home. Thankfully, Erica walked me and my husband through each. and. every. step. Erica was honest, informational, and personable. I'm thankful that I found Paragon and we will be using them for years to come!

I have entrusted Erica and her team with both my personal and business taxes for several years. I have very complicated taxes when you combine my business and personal needs, and they are on top of it all and make it easy for me to understand my options and the best route to take my finances both personally and professionally. They also do my business' bookkeeping and payroll which allows me to leave that task to the experts and focus on other areas of my business. They are an essential part of my day to day and couldn't get through it without them!

I have been with Paragon Accounting since 2007. They have always treated me not just with respect and consideration for my business but also with a warm friendliness that constitutes a long standing relationship. Owning several business throughout the years, They are thorough, efficient and will keep on me till they are able to complete their tasks for me. They have never let me down. Each person working there, is kind, professional, respectful and follows through. If they don't know an answer to a questions they don't give me an answer until they make sure they have the right and correct

I couldn't possibly say enough good things about Erica & Paragon Accountants. Not only was Erica extremely informative, helpful, and incrediby efficeint, she never ever made me feel anything but great when I asked the stupidest questions. She walked me through every aspect of the process with patience and kindness.
I will never use another accountant and would exuberantly recommend everyone I meet to Erica & Paragon!

We made the change to Paragon Accountants this year and we we're ambivalent about going through the hassle of changing our accountant but it was so much easier than I'd anticipated and absolutely worth it. Erica was so organized and helpful, it made doing our taxes much easier. She is super knowledgeable and I'm so glad that we have her managing our situation.

I own an auto repair shop that specializes in repair and restoration of vintage VW campers. What I DON'T specialize in is accounting (and anything relating to taxes!). That's where Erica and her team at Paragon Accounting come in - a professional, highly-skilled, results-focused firm. Hiring Paragon Accounting was one of the best things I ever did for my business.

Erica and her team at Paragon Accountants are wonderful to work with and really give you that feeling of personal service. They have a beautiful office location near my office in downtown San Diego which is convenient but they make it easy to work with them remotely as well. Great accounting firm. Thank you!

Erica and her team are first class to work with. Extremely accessible, picks up the phone and gets back to me within 24 hours at the very latest no matter what I need. Book keeping and taxes are not my strong suit. If you need a dependable advisor, Erica is a great resource to have for business and personal tax filings.

I have worked with Erica and her team for a few years now. They continually do an outstanding job of preparing my tax return. Erica and her team help answer all of my questions and give me great advice on how to handle different financial situations. Everything from setting my appointment times to submitting my taxes is very professional and personalized. I could not be happier with the services they provide and would easily recommend Erica and her entire team to everyone I know.
