Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Steve Wick and Assoc. is a highly reputable accounting firm with over 25 years of experience. As a small manufacturer, I need an accountant diverse in all areas of accounting, and Steve is that guy. He's honest, diligent and works hard to stay ahead of the game. In addition, he manages all correspondence with the IRS so I can focus on my business. I've worked with Steve for over twenty years, and I'm confident and comfortable with his advice and judgement in all areas of accounting.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value After years of trying to find a good accounting firm, we got started with Steve and his team a few years ago and I must say, it's one of the single best things we've done for our business. The help that we've received navigating through COVID, PPP loans, subsequent tax credits, and other financial challenges have been invaluable, and having somebody looking at our books and maintaining our financials has been a business saver for us. Steve and Angie have become more than accountants for us, they've become trusted advisors. I highly recommend Steve Wick & Associates for your accounting needs. They rock!

Steve Wick is a very talented CPA. I wish I would have found him years before I did. He takes time to get to know you – his business is clearly focused on relationships. Steve understands the “numbers” and as he says, they tell the story of where we’ve been, but more importantly he looks beyond the numbers to help you see why the numbers are the way they are. He digs in and helps you discover hidden roadblocks and bottlenecks and shows you how to bust through to the next level. I highly recommend Steve as not only a great numbers CPA, he’s also a remarkable financial strategist and profit improvement coach.

He is diligent in all aspects of tax prep and well-versed in the ever changing tax regulations. He can handle any of your accounting needs from payroll to quarterly and annual tax filings. I highly recommend his practice for any of your business or personal accounting needs.
