Lee Cowley
When we first started to work with Louis, he really took the time to get to know us and understand our business needs. Now, years later, I appreciate that he makes himself available to us whenever we need him and always has time to carefully explain complex issues. Last year when we were audited by CRA, he was extremely helpful. He took the time to plan with us before the audit, and support us through the entire process. It's a pleasure to work with Louis.
Ray Radke
The first time I met Louis he gave me an initial assessment on my personal tax situation, and I liked his approach. A year or so later I was happy to ask him to handle the files for five corporations. He's skilled at quickly identifying issues and suggesting solutions. I have worked with a number Louis' staff members, and they are all very good too. I'm happy to recommend Louis and his team, and I do so regularly.
