Private Accountant

In 1990, I started my small electrolysis business & found Ninous who was just opening his business in La Palma. I walked in and asked him if he could help me and have come back every year since. When I remarried, my husband brought his construction business to Ninous. We have referred numerous friends/​clients to him. His wife Janet helps out at the office and is also just the sweetest person. I wouldn’t even consider ever going to anyone else for tax/​financial preparation.

2014 Update: I have a lease negotiation coming up and Ninous brought me up-​to-​date and gave me the necessary and much needed information to aid me in the negotiation. Thank you for the great advise.

We were referred to Ninous by good friends of ours who have been doing their taxes and accountant services with him for well over 20 years. We have only been a customer since 2010, but feel we can 100% trust him with our taxes, and we will return to him as a customer this year.
If you are looking for a locally owned small business that still values a personal relationship with their clients, look no further.
2014 Update: Me and my wife are now clients 4 years in a row, and we are still completely satisfied! Ninous is friendly, attentive, and knows his stuff. This year, both of us were quite under the weather for several weeks in late March and early April, and when we had to re-​schedule to the very last day to do tax returns, he worked through his lunch hour to make sure everything got submitted before the deadline so we didn’t have to file for an extension. He works hard for his clients, and I would recommend him to anyone!

Ninous, the owner of Private Accountant, has been my tax professional and consultant for over 20 years. He doesn’t just «prepare your taxes» but he gives you strategies to consider when purchasing/​selling real estate or tax savings for your personal life and businesses. And if you ever get one of those scary letters from the IRS, just having Ninous tell you «I’ll take care of it» makes all the anxiety disappear. It doesn’t get any better than Ninous and Private Accountant.

Tax time can be overwhelming. The laws are always changing and I am not the best at staying on top of that or my receipts! We were referred to Ninous a few years back and what a relief it has been to have him on our team!
1. The office is always welcoming and Ninous is kind and patient with our many questions.
2. We don’t always know what to look for but Ninous does and has helped us save money and better prepare for upcoming years.
3. He is quick to follow up with questions by email.
4. The office is easy to get to, right off the freeway, plenty of parking and coffee is always ready!
5. We trust him. Trust isn’t something we throw around.
If you are looking for a respected, family business who cares about you, please make an appointment with Ninous. I believe you will be very pleased you did.

If you’ve always wanted to have a professional yet personable ‘tax-​guy’ who looks out for you and helps you get the most return while minimizing your liabilities, look no further. Ninous is the type of person you want handling your taxes; he’s honest, incredibly knowledgeable, and he’s happy to offer advice specific to your needs, whether you’re handling your own personal finances or if you started a business and have no clue what you’re doing, like me. That’s why Ninous handles all of my family’s taxes, and they live 2 hours away!

I love Ninous, he is the best.

I’ve been going here for many many years now, and for many good reasons.
1. it feels great to support a local business
2. the knowledge that they have is pretty amazing
3. the coffee is good
4. parking is easy, you get great treatment, and it’s clear that they are personally invested in what they do
We’re talking about a guy who, I’d guess, has a good 40 years of experience in investing and accounting. If you have complex taxes and investments, like I do, you will be extremely pleased.
