My Clients
Feedback from our delighted clientele.
Brenda was amazing to work with. Unlike major tax companies, Brenda was very responsive, proactive with communication regarding updates, and, most importantly, extremely transparent about the process and potential outcomes. I highly recommend her services with anyone regarding state (Maryland) or federal taxes.

Olom N. Midland, TX
Great price!
I needed to find a tax professional I trusted. After searching online I came across Brenda Nichols. To say she was great at her job was an understatement. She saw me the same day and helped me get my state and federal taxes completed. She devised a way forward with other issues and concerns I had. After leaving her office I was very relieved and extremely thankful for all of her help and knowledge. She is genuine and a person that I highly recommend. If I could I would give her 6 stars.

FAQS
What is the difference between itemizing and taking the standard deduction?
Itemizing your deductions allows you to deduct specific expenses, such as medical expenses, charitable contributions, and state and local taxes. The standard deduction is a fixed amount that you can deduct without having to itemize your deductions.
What is the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)?
The EITC is a tax credit that is available to low- and middle-income workers. The EITC can reduce your tax liability or even give you a refund, even if you owe no taxes.
What should I do if I am audited?
If you are audited by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), you should contact a tax professional immediately. A tax professional can help you understand the audit process and can represent you before the IRS.
