What to Look For in a Good Licensed Accountant

Experience Matters

There are many large firms like PwC, Deloitte, KPMG which are great firms, however, they may be a little large for your business or personal tax.

At Sutherland Shire Accountants, we recommend looking for accounting firms that have experience with the size of the business you run. The firm should have a good track record of satisfied clients and should be able to give you sound advice to ensure there are no shocks that come your way.

​Reviews

The best way to identify the good, the bad, and the ugly firms is by looking for reviews on different firms. It also pays to be specific in what you are searching for you. For example, if you run a small business and you want to find out about the latest ato small business covid assistance or you just want to know more about the government stimulus package, then make sure you look for what people have said their experience has been been.
