We used … for our business and personal tax returns, and he fixed up a bunch of our accounting mistakes along the way. His price and service was excellent, and he's a good bloke to boot.
… is great. He is knowledgeable, efficient, and makes dealing with my finances completely stress-free. I always feel confident everything is handled right. Highly recommend!
… completed all accounting works related to me personally and my business fast and effectively. … achieved this with quick communication and taking the time to explain the more complex items and ongoing support.
… a small self-funded charity. We've engaged … as our principal bookkeeper and accountant. His handling of accounts payable and reconciliations of investments and financial transactions has been meticulous. He has proactively identified issues for resolution, clearly explained accounting requirements and assisted in providing comprehensive financial information to our auditor. In my opinion, he would be an asset for any small business.

TPB requirements
As a Registered Tax Agent, I am required to comply with the requirements of the Tax Practitioners Board’s Tax Agent Services Code of Conduct.
One of these requirements is to keep my clients and prospective clients informed of the TPB public register, complaints process, my rights, responsibilities and obligations, and whether a “prescribed event” has occurred.
The TPB maintains a public register of tax and BAS agents. This can be accessed here (the TPB public register). My registration number is 26299632, and my registration details are available here (registration 26299632 on the TPB register).
If you are unhappy with a tax agent service I have provided, and have been unable to resolve the issue with me, a complaint can be made in writing using the TPB’s complaints form, found here (the TPB complaints form).
The TPB has published a factsheet covering the above matters, as well as my rights, responsibilities, and obligations. I encourage you to read the factsheet, and if you have any questions please contact me for further information.
No prescribed events involving me have occurred.
