There are many compelling reasons why you should
choose Barbara Bell, C.A. and Associates for your final return
and other related estate accounting needs:
Over 30 years experience
in accounting and tax preparation
Having me on your
team puts a 30-year+ proven track record on your side. I
have been practicing accounting since 1975, and I have a varied
business background working in such areas as investing, accounting,
human resources legal services, and health. Over the years
I have worked with some of the most recognized public and private
organizations in the Province.
A specialist in final returns
Over the years I’ve made the decision to concentrate my practice
on this one specific area of tax preparation. It’s an area
I enjoy working in and have a real passion for. Focusing my business
in this way allows me to stay on top of the ever-changing tax laws,
while refining and simplifying my process in order to ultimately
give my clients the best advice and services possible.
Work
one-on-one with Barbara
I own a small specialty firm and because of this specialization
I get the opportunity to work directly one-on-one with each client.
Be assured that any work we do together is done directly with me
and is not handed off to a junior or articling student.
An
experienced executor
I have not only prepared and filed a number of personal tax returns
and final tax returns, but I have also been an executor on a few
occasions and have the first-hand experience and understanding
of what you may be going through. This understanding allows me
more insight and helps me to formulate more effective strategies
to bring the process with each client to a successful completion
for all.
A simple and efficient process
With my “five easy step” process, I have made
the task of filing your appropriate tax returns simple and efficient.
Throughout this process, I put my clients at ease with my quiet approach
and sense of humour, while combining my knowledge of both tax laws
and my ability to be sensitive to the strong emotions associated with
grief.
Convenience
I will come to your home or any place convenient to you to meet
and discuss the appropriate course of action for your specific
needs. Because I make “house calls”, you never need
to worry about traffic, transit delays or parking, and I consider
that your time is as important as my own.
Cost effective
Because my business overhead costs are small, I can pass that savings
on to you; therefore, my fees are generally lower than the larger
firms. Despite the lower fees, my commitment to quality remains
high.
