I found Darryl via online research with no referrals and I'm so glad I went with him! I needed to find someone who could handle my yearly tax preparation, but was also interested in future tax planning as I continue to grow financially. His team was super responsive, I got a response the same day and we scheduled a meeting for the next week. He was able to give me a price estimate and expected turnaround and my taxes were completed that day. He was knowledgable about any additional questions I had and communication was quick and thorough. I look forward to continue working with him!

Working with Heard & Associates has been one of the best business decisions I’ve made. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to accuracy truly stand out. From day one, their team made it easy to get organized and stay on top of everything — especially when it comes to bookkeeping.

They’ve completely transformed how my business handles its financial records. Every transaction is tracked, categorized, and explained clearly, so I always know where my money is going and what my cash flow looks like. Their bookkeeping services are not only thorough but also easy to understand — they take the time to explain reports and help identify opportunities to save or scale.

What I appreciate most is their consistency and communication. They respond quickly, provide monthly updates without being asked, and make sure all my accounts are clean and compliant come tax time. It’s rare to find a team that combines deep expertise with such genuine care for their clients’ success.

If you’re looking for an accounting firm that truly treats your business like their own — especially when it comes to keeping your books in order — I highly recommend Heard & Associates. They’re reliable, transparent, and simply excellent at what they do.
