Professionalism
Responsiveness
Quality
- Professionalism: A strong work ethic is the vehicle that highly motivated people use to achieve their greatest potential. Coupled with professionalism, it’s an unstoppable force. At Steven Lissner & Company, our financial team respects your personal goals and work tirelessly to help you achieve them.
- Responsiveness: The biggest advantage of hiring an accountant is the back-and-forth exchange of information that occurs between you and one of our accountants. This allows us to customize your goals and maximize your financial returns in ways that can’t be replicated by automated systems. With prompt responsiveness, we strive to eliminate the headaches of automated systems while simultaneously maintaining the advantage of speed.
- Quality: If there is something wrong with your taxes, the IRS will come for you and not your accountant. Your complex finances require (and deserve) attention to detail. And, when it comes to securing personal financial documents, retirement plans, and yearly tax returns, quality is of the utmost importance. Results matter. And, we deliver.

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). I cannot recommend Steven Lissner & Company more for a comprehensive and thorough tax return as well as financial planning advice.

Steven Lissner & Company prepared several returns for me earlier this year. This was the first time I used a CPA to prepare my taxes, as I have always done them myself. Steve and his team were very personable and easy to work with. Their secure client portal provided me with comfort in sending confidential information. I plan to work with Steve and his team for a long time and highly recommend them to anyone seeking a high-quality service delivered with a personal touch.

Steve and Lenny did an outstanding job of preparing our returns this year that involved tax issues in three states. We have been clients of Lissner and Company for about ten years.

Steve has worked for us since 2013 and we are very satisfied. It's not just in preparing the returns; it's being responsive to questions during the year. We will continue to use him in the future.
Mark Jay
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.
