“As a small business trying to survive in a competitive environment, receiving expert accounting advice was critical in the early stages of our growth. The team at Berwick Tax have been there from day one, from the moment we first turned our wheels locally, to now providing services nationally.
“Whether it be a small, personal accounting question or a large, important and perhaps directional financial decision, Berwick Tax have always been eager to help and take the time to understand what our goals are.
“In today’s day and age, service is everything, and I’ll be the first to admit that for my clients – I need to do everything I can to assist them. As a small business owner, we’re increasingly time poor and need to ensure those we engage are the best in their field. For this reason alone, I entrust Berwick Tax for all our accounting services.”
