As a business owner, taxes always felt overwhelming and stressful, but Steve and his team has made the entire process so much easier. The whole team is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely helpful. Steve, Jordan, Brian, and Sandy are all equally amazing — every interaction I’ve had with them has been clear, supportive, and stress-free. They truly handle it all, which takes a huge weight off my shoulders and lets me focus on running my business. They always take the time to answer my questions and make everything easy to understand. I’m so grateful to have them as a trusted partner for both my business and personal taxes, and I can’t recommend them enough.

Bobby McBride, MBA, CPA candidate, recently met with me to discuss my 2025 tax filing. He is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and knows the complexities of the tax law in and out. He's easy to talk to, and always available to take the time to answer all my questions. Founder Steven Lissner, CPA, and his entire staff/team are wonderful and accommodating and the office is modern and immaculate. I highly recommend this office for any/all tax needs.
Martin Taran
I started my business when I was 19 years old and they definitely don't teach you anything about K-1s or 1065s in high school. Its incredible that this company provides consultations for their clients at no charge. I spoke with Jordan and he explained everything tax wise to me and answered all questions. The value this company provides is genuinely awesome and you don't see this level of service nowadays. I will use them for as long as I'm in business no question about it

Steven Lissner met with me regarding potential work for a new business (LLC). He gave me useful information in this initial visit which was provided free. He spent time with me and answered my questions about startup issues, use of LLC, potential tax results and such. I appreciated him spending the time to assist me. His company has much to offer and I will strongly consider using Steven Lissner & Co for any future business.
D Mill
We switched to Steven Lissner& Company two years ago and we could not be happier with them. We were lucky enough to work with both Cathy’s on their team and their kindness and attention to detail is simply amazing. They found so many mistakes that our previous accountant had made and even filed our business taxes in a way so that we saved. We are so appreciative of their hard work and we could not recommend them enough! Don't wait, switch now! They are the best!

I’ve been searching for an accountant who is not only professional but genuinely cares about understanding and helping with the unique needs of my business—and I’m happy to say I’ve found that in Scott Lissner and his team.Scott took the time to truly understand how our business operates. He thoroughly reviewed all the documents we sent over and even improved an Excel file that, until now, only my wife could make sense of! Most importantly, he guided us through our first S-Corp filing with clarity and confidence.Scott and his team are incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

We came to Steven Lissner and company after using a tax preparer for many years; that experience left us wanting. Steven and his team ushered in an entirely new and welcome experience in tax preparation and accounting. His professionalism, attention to detail, and vast knowledge in the field (based on years of experience) made us feel right at home. We are small business owners and Steven and his team have eased our burdens and have given us great confidence in all matters pertaining to tax liabilities and reporting, and navigation often tricky tax laws.We really wish we found Steven sooner. One of the best decisions we've made for our business!

Steve and Cathy are wonderful to work with. They make tax season as pain-free as possible. They pay attention to details and ensure your filing is optimized while done with the utmost integrity. They take the time to explain all aspects of the return(s) and are always available to answer questions as they arise (before, during and after the return is complete).

Steve and his staff do a stellar job with our taxes every year and this year even took on our two LLCs. He explains everything clearly including what we need and what we’re missing. Steve has been the accountant for my three older siblings for many years and we’ve been going to him for about 10 years. We live an hour away, but are able to electronically send our documentation seamlessly. If you make the change to Steve Lissner, you’ll be glad you did.

Lisa F
Steven Lissner & Company is a wonderful firm. I have been using them since 2017 and I've never even met them in person! They respect that I'm a busy working mom and they do everything they can to make sure I get a return, that I get it fast and that I don't have to go out of my way to work with them. They provide extremely professional and helpful service and their staff is kind and responsive. They have a team that's large enough and specialized enough to answer all my questions and help me when I need it. My favorite part is that, after years of struggling with a bad accounting firm that had me owing the IRS for years, Lissner helped me get organized so that I get a return every year since I've been working with them. I can't say enough good things about this firm - They have had such a helpful impact on my life!
Elizabeth Geary-Archer
Steven and his staff have been the easiest group to work with over the past three years I have been working with them. From the first email I receive at the start of tax season, until the last, they have kept me informed as to what is needed, any issues, and when the returns have been filed. I highly recommend Steve's firm for all your accounting needs.
Andrew Fischbach
I think Steve is terrific: He's professional, extremely knowledgeable and well informed about all matters with which he deals, and quick to respond to any questions that I have had. My husband feels likewise. Throughout the years, I have also found Steve to be very personable, cheery, and an all around lovely person. I'm very happy to have found him and his firm.
