Question: How can I find a good tax preparer?

I have moved to a new town and have a complicated tax situation that requires a very experienced yet trustworthy tax advisor/preparer to file for both federal and state levels. Do I just walk into an H&R Block and wish for the best? Any way I can get a referral (In los angeles). Thanks.
My main concern is that I don’t want to be overcharged. I was charged $900 by my tax preparer 2 years ago yet the IRS still came after me for amounts owed so I didn’t want to go to him again, he skipped town and is wanted for a lot of tax fraud so I got worried and never filed last year so I am afraid of all the penalties and don’t want to be taken advantage of and overcharged by a tax preparer. So basically if someone has a personal referal or know of a site with ratings for preparers or feedback that’s maybe what i’m looking for.

Answer: dont trust h & r block or liberty tax or jackson hewitt, …they all hire people who are very new to the business.

i recomend that you talk to people who you know and have them give you a recomendation.

interview your potential preparer to find out what he/she knows.

and like the guy above said, it may be just a walk in the park….wow $900 !!! i want to do your taxes.

Question: Are Nevada and Delaware really the best states to incorporate?

Is it still the best option (and most cost effective) to incorporate in Nevada and get a registered agent when you want your main (and only) office in California?

Don’t you still have to register as a foreign company and pay all these California fees and taxes, thereby erasing all the money you save on taxes?

Answer: All the real benefits for Delaware/Nevada incorporations are realized only for larger corporations with a fairly large stockholder class (i.e. many more stockholders than officers or directors). If you plan on your corporation growing to a good size, then consider DE (Nevada basically copies DE laws, but lacks the Court of Chancery and the long line of court decisions that make predicting DE law much easier for you and your corporate lawyer). It is a common misconception that corporations incorporate in DE for tax reasons; that just isn’t true (at least, it is a very small sliver of why corporations incorporate here). Two huge reasons are the Delaware corporate code’s flexibility and the Court of Chancery’s expertise.

However, a decision this big should only be made after consulting a lawyer with a strong background in business organizations and formations. Far too many people think that incorporating is the best way to start their business (often it isn’t), and that they will get some benefit from incorporating in a certain state (for most small corporations and in most situations, the state of incorporation has almost no effect).
