Highlands Tax & Accounting

Saved our lives, went beyond the call of duty, found $s from years past. If you don’t love your accountant or tax preparer you must meet the fabulous ladies at Highlands Tax & Accounting.

After having a nightmare of an experience at H&R Block last year, I am so glad I found Highlands Tax & Accounting! Joni Lofton was so knowledgeable and she took the time to explain everything as well as answer all 5 million of my questions. I walked out of my appointment with a better understanding of my taxes. Love this place! Plus you can grab some excellent coffee at the shop next door!

Belinda is friendly, smart, and she knows what she’s doing. When we realized our last accountant was a total fool, my friend literally found Highlands Tax and Accounting by opening the yellow pages and randomly picking an accountant. I was scared, but desperate to find a new accountant. No reason for worry. Belinda has been our accountant now for four years, and we could not be happier. She has been a great advisor, and she is there all year long to help us out. We LOVE Highlands Tax and Accounting.

I filled out my taxes on TurboTax and some other online tax service first, but was really taken aback by the horrendous numbers in the negatives flashing before my eyes as I entered more information.
So… just minutes after failing while using TurboTax on a rainy Sunday evening, I was sitting in Belinda’s office. She was understanding, knowledgeable and friendly. I had always pictured accounts as stuffy and boring, but Belinda was great. She definitely outshone those TurboTax pop up FAQ chat assistants in both expertise and personality.
With her help, those bold red numbers from TurboTax turned a much much much less vibrant shade of red. I ended up paying only a fraction of what my original numbers online showed up to be!
I think this probably goes as a given for experienced Schedule C filer-​s, but if you’re unexperienced in filing Schedule C and not used to using an accountant… definitely use an accountant, I’d rec this one! Reasons to opt for an in person accountant over
:
1. You can write off the accountant’s fee.
2. You can find out so much more about what expenses you can deduct and what you can’t.
3. Louisville requires that you pay metro taxes in addition to state and federal and Belinda can do that too!
Rates are reasonable and it’s all based on the number of forms you have to fill out.
