Testimonials

She does impeccable work…

"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Barbara’s service and quality of work a ten-plus.  She does impeccable work.  I guess that’s why I have been using her services for my yearly income tax and any other accounting matters since 1989.

Over the years there have been times where I needed some serious help and Barbara has always come through.  I feel very fortunate to have found such an exceptionally thoughtful and extremely gifted person.  I owe very sincere thanks to my lawyer who thoughtfully introduced us in the first place.  Working with Barbara is delightful - she is efficient, fast and gives excellent advice.  To any person seeking help with accounting and tax returns, I strongly recommend Barbara."

Someone that I could rely on…

“Before meeting Barbara, the prospect of filing all appropriate tax returns for the estate for which I was the executor had me feeling a little bit out of my depth - the task of confronting all the varying levels of government appeared to be tremendously daunting. 

The good news is that after meeting Barbara I was totally put at ease.  Barbara quickly clarified the overall process that lay ahead and did so in a very confident and reassuring manner.  I immediately knew I’d found someone that I could rely on to know, or if necessary, track down all the answers to anything that was going to come our way during the process.

Barbara was a delight to work with, both personally and professionally.  Always punctual and I don’t think I ever witnessed her feathers ruffled over anything we encountered.

I would highly recommend Barbara to any executor who is about to start an estate administration.  With her expert help, you will be amazed at how easily it all falls into place!”

A real weight had been taken off my shoulders …

“It was great working with Barbara. She has a very calming nature. She presented information in a clear and concise manner and let me ask as many questions as I needed to, as many times as I needed to. If she didn't know the answer to something, she would say so and get back to me with the answer promptly.

Working with Barbara felt like a real weight had been taken off my shoulders. I trusted her to help me make the best decisions for me and my family. I liked that she came to my house - it made me feel very comfortable and somehow taken care of. I also liked that she not only listened to me talk about my mother, but she also shared her own experience with her mother's death - and her own role as executor.”

Incredible integrity and compassion …

"What makes Barbara valuable to me is her clear, concise and cautious thinking coupled with her incredible integrity and compassion.  She takes the time to explain her thinking and the time to answer my questions.  I am very happy with the work Barbara has done for me and wouldn’t think of going to anyone else."
