Edit: 3 years later, so now we are on year 4. Still no word from them on our taxes. How can a company take 4 years to do taxes with no explanation!

There seem to be so many great reviews but unfortunately we can't say the same. They have had our tax info for almost a year now and they are still not done without any answers as to why. We are pretty sure that we will owe quite a bit of money so our interest and penalties continue to climb as we wait for them to finish. We haven't been able to make any plans in our future until we know where we stand financially so our lives our on hold and have been for nearly a year now. To say that this is frustrating is an extreme understatement. We need our taxes done so that we can move on with our lives and plan our future, but we still have no indication as to when that will happen.

We have been customers of The Shafer Group for several years. Extremely professional and great to work with. Cynthia is top notch and we are so thankful to have her doing our books! Our Only wish is that we found them sooner!

I've been a business and personal client for over 10 years. Shafer Group does a consistently good job in the entire process of tax strategy, compliance and return accuracy.

There were many times where I saved more money in tax liability by taking their planning and execution advice than I paid them in fees for their services.

I've always felt like we fully complied with all the tax rules, and that all returns were correct, but that we also didn't miss anything that was helpful either immediately or in future years.

I've used Top Ten accounting firms in the past. And sometimes they have their role. But Shafer Group provides personal quality tax advice at service rates far better than bigger firms.

The Shafer Group has been handling our personal taxes along with our multiple business entities that are quite complex for years now. When we first came to the Shafer Group, we needed help moving forward after a mishandling of a previous CPA, they couldn't have done a better job getting us on track. Everyone we have worked with has been incredibly professional, helpful and friendly. Any questions or concerns we have are answered in a very timely manner, whether it be through email, phone call or meeting. We have been very happy with our payroll, accounting and tax services. The Shafer Group is helping us grow along with our businesses and we would highly recommend them to anyone!

Nothing but top tier accounting talent at this company. After trying several others in the past, what a night and day difference it has been working with Shafer Group. They were able to recover substantial accounting misses by others which resulted in a significant check back to us. What a way to start a relationship! They are absolutely on top of all the changes and work with us to develop a winning strategy for our companies. They are just about as good as a company can be, competent and always have your best interest in mind. I shy away from making recommendations but in this case I can wholeheartedly endorse Shafer Group without reservation.

We've used the Shafer Group since 2000, and have always received prompt accurate service. They have always gotten us the maximum refund on taxes that we were entitled to, been extremely good at keeping in contact, are accurate, and even have fresh-baked cookies on the counter at tax time! I recommend them without reservation.

The Shafer Group has provided consistently excellent service over the past fifteen years to keep my tax returns tight and right. During those years, I have prevailed in the “vida loca” while navigating an unwanted divorce, single fatherhood, overseas deployments, running a rental property, retirement from a long military career, challenging training for a second career, out of state commuting, etc. Throughout all of that turbulence, the Shafer Group has been a bedrock source of stability and confidence. They have earned my highest recommendation possible.

After years of not being fully satisfied with the results and service I was getting from my tax preparation people, I switched to The Shafer Group this year and the results were better than I could have expected. They obviously have a efficient system to allow the CPAs to develop relationships and work directly with customers. We have two businesses, multiple sources of 1099 income, and W2 income and Vidhya took the time to really dig into everything during our initial meeting. She was readily available when I had questions during the process and is completely on top of all the tax law changes that impacted us. Go here if you live in Colorado Springs or Monument!
