  I have been in business many years and used a couple of different accounting firms. I was fortunate, several years ago, to be introduced to Meir and his firm Spear CPA CFP. I finally found an accounting firm that cares for their clients. They are professionals and treat you with the utmost respect and compassion no matter how small your business is. Spear CPA CFP's staff are always  accessible and respond to phone calls in a timely manner. They answer all my emails promptly. I never had to pay any penalties, as I did when I dealt with my previous CPA, because they are on top of our work and alert us when it is time to make payments.
They also, update us of any new tax laws that help our business save money in taxes and increase our tax refunds.
I am very thankful to Meir and his team during the recent pandemic, Meir notified me  that I was eligible for PPP funding. He helped me secure the PPP Funding, by preparing the PPP application and soon after prepared the PPP Loan Forgiveness application to make sure that the loan was forgiven.
It is my utmost pleasure to write this review because I feel secure  that Meir and Spear CPA CFP are handling my financial affairs.

  I have worked with Meir Spear since opening a US business in 2007. I have been remote from the US for much of that time and he has been an invaluable business partner for me. He and his people have completed all work and gone above and beyond at times to help me run a remote business in the US from abroad.

I can thoroughly recommend him and his company.

  We have been working with Meir and his team since 2016.  We are so grateful that he was recommended for our small business accounting.  I know very little about taxes as it relates to a business, and Meir has provided great guidance, tax advice, as well as tax preparation for the past 7 years.  I never hesitate to reach out with questions, and I would highly recommend Meir and his team!

  Meir has been my accountant for over 12 years and I love him. He has been so helpful during covid to guide me into getting the PPP funds for my small business as well as helping me to get it forgiven. Not only that, he has been so patient with me all these years as I am not very good with numbers but he always simplifies and explains everything to me clearly. During those 12 years, I have moved from New York City to France, then to Germany, and now California. He remains my accountant, and my taxes have always been impeccable. I cannot imagine looking for someone else! I have recommended him to a dear friend who resides in Salt Lake City, and always recommend him whenever I hear someone is looking for help with their taxes. Thank you so much Meir.
