Client stories

What clients say about working with Safe Harbor

“As a small business owner, I can’t afford the fees most CPA firms charge. Not only was Safe Harbor affordable, but the service was exceptional and my tax return was completed in time and before the deadline. The level of professionalism at Safe Harbor is spectacular.”

Sunita Bhatt

President, iPoint Solutions, Inc.

“Chun of Safe Harbor came into our company at a time when we were four years behind on our tax filings. Within six months he researched our very complex international structure and gotten us current on all filings… Chun also performed a state audit defense, helping our company successfully argue that the quarter million tax assessment was actually zero.”

Addo Barrows

CFO, Hands-On Mobile

“Chun and the team at SafeHarborCPA have been doing our tax returns for the last three years. My wife and I are both foreign internationals working in the U.S. Declaring global tax is a complex and tedious subject… Chun ticks the boxes in all aspects of his work, professionalism, knowledge, and customer service.”
