Brad Barta, CPA

Brad is a great CPA, always upfront, attentive and knowledgeable about everything to do with tax law. He’s also an all round great guy. Thanks, Brad!

Brad is fantastic. He is very easy to work with, knows his stuff and gets the job done on time. I cannot recommend Brad enough.

What can I say? Brad is awesome! he handled both my and wife’s taxes this year including my business. I was a little concerned about hiring an accountant due to cost, let me say this…
if you’re concerned don’t be, trust me it’ll save you money in the long run! and he’s VERY easy to work with, he does pretty much everything via web and phone, no need to schedule meetings, drive in austin traffic, Ect. I couldn’t have had a better experience. — of course owing zero taxes but that’s certainly not his fault!
Pros: Great communication, Advice, workflow, and very affordable!
Cons: Can’t find one
Leave H&R block to students and teenagers, if you need a CPA he’s your guy.

I have worked with Brad for over 3 years now and have nothing but the highest praise in regards to his work as a CPA. Brad took the time to get to know me, and walked me through the process of preparing my taxes. He is very reliable, and answers all my questions very quickly. He makes filing taxes very easy, gets you all your deductions, and makes sure it’s a painless process for everyone involved. I highly recommend Brad for all your accounting needs!

I’ve been using Brad for years now, and he is the perfect CPA for me. Extremely knowledgeable and always on his «A game». He’s willing to give helpful advice, when needed, and always gets things to me on time and well organized. I couldn’t imagine a better experience when it comes to taxes!

I just started an account on Unilocal so that I could review Brad. And really, that is the least I could do in exchange for the peace of mind that comes with Brad handling your taxes.
As a small business owner, I am a DIY-​er to the extreme, which used to include taxes. I wasted a ton of money and time one year going to a national chain, and they didn’t seem to know anymore than I did. After finding Brad, I am a true believer in hiring an expert, instead of spending days second guessing if I was doing my taxes correctly.
All of the things you read here about Brad are true. He is organized, knowledgeable, and accommodating, and I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Brad is a really great CPA! He takes his time, asks questions and is really accommodating. I have worked with him for last 2 tax seasons and I feel 100% confident in his ability to handle my account. I recommend him every chance I get.

I can’t say enough about Brad. I just wish I had used him for my 2011 taxes. I was expecting something similiar this year in terms of IRS gouging, but was pleasantly surprised. And he was so easy to work with, so laidback yet professional with very reasonable pricing. I recommend him to anyone and will use him as long as he’s in practice without question.

Brad is a great accountant and a great guy. Over the past six months, I’ve come to appreciate and rely heavily on his patience and professionalism.
My wife and I called him back in August of last year for some tax advice on company formation — whether we should elect to file as an S-​corp or C-​corp, the best way to minimize our tax obligations, along with a bunch of other technical questions I had no idea about before speaking to Brad.
Since then he’s helped us with tax planning, Quickbooks setup and training, and recently filed our first small business return. Even better, he managed to save us a few thousand bucks on income tax — the result of a very thorough job on the return I’m sure.
In summary, I would strongly recommend him to freelancers, small and medium business owners, newcomers to Texas, and anyone else who with a tendency to let their curiosity and/​or paranoia run away with them when tax season rolls around.
Thank a bunch Brad!

Does awesome work, thorough and cares about his clients

Brad has done my taxes for the last two years. He’s very personable while also efficient and competent (as far as my taxes-​ignorant brain knows). I highly recommend him.

I found Brad on Unilocal and after reading several very positive reviews I wrote him an email requesting his services. My taxes were a little complicated than normal as I had foreign income tax exemptions that had to be factored in. Brad was able to get the job done in a way that exceeded expectations. I had requested Brad’s services in the midst of tax season, but he was still able to get the work done timely. I highly recommend Brad.

I rarely write Unilocal reviews, but felt my outstanding experience speaking with Brad Barta, CPA could not go without compliment to his notable character. I emailed Brad regarding filing taxes for a new business venture, and he was able to meet with me that afternoon. I cannot recommend him highly enough — not only did he answer all of my questions with clear explanations, but he also presented me with several different options for filing, and I never thought discussing a tax issue could be both informative and enjoyable. Brad was fun to speak to about business, showed a strong passion for his work, but was also laid-​back, understanding, and friendly. I felt as if I was discussing an important issue with a friend I’d known for years due to his trustworthy nature. I will definitely use his services again, and would suggest contacting him if you’re in need of a quality CPA with adept customer service.

Brad Barta, CPA has helped me on my taxes for the last two years and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is knowledge, friendly, and has great patience for my extensive list of questions. Taxes seem to be overwhelming at times but Brad has a way of breaking it down and making it comprehensible.
Brad will make you feel like you’re his top priority. I will never go back to trying to do my own taxes or working with a chain store again. His prices are overly fair and you get real customer service.

I have been working with Brad Barta, CPA on my taxes for the last three years and I’ll never go back to doing my own taxes.
Brad is highly skilled and responsive and his pricing is more than fair. He will take the time to sit down with you, understand your unique situation and talk you though all the different scenarios. Last year I ran into a situation where I owed a lot of money I had not accounted for. Brad presented me with several different options and walked me through the pros and cons of each. He is completely professional while also treating you like an individual.
If you are looking for someone to do your personal or business taxes I highly recommend Brad Barta, CPA.

I was in business for over 6 months and let the accounting paperwork pile up because I couldn’t figure out how to use Quickbooks properly. Brad came to the rescue! Brad was a delight as he was both personable and professional, while also being down-​to-​earth, as he walked me through the basics of setting up my company account in Quickbooks Pro. He also gave me some key tax advice to keep in mind as I go about running my new business. And his rates are quite reasonable.
