Client Reviews

What our clients say.

  1. 5 out of 5 stars

    “I am absolutely thrilled with Altruistic Accounting! I remotely filed my 2023 taxes from Toronto, and I was delighted to receive a substantial refund. The entire experience was seamless and exceeded all my expectations. Their dedication is truly remarkable – they even assisted me with my taxes on a holiday!”

    “I recently moved to Ottawa and I didn’t have an accountant here. I saw a sign at the Mosque and thought I should get my taxes done here in order to support a Muslim business. I was pleasantly surprised by his service and would recommend Altruistic Accounting to everyone. He was professional, efficient, organized, and personable. Bonus points for having such a pretty office. I appreciate that his service exists.”

    “Nothing short of incredible. I’m in a very difficult tax position, living between provinces with jobs in both. He helped me file multiple years at once, addressed every concern, even saw me in person less than an hour after we spoke ON A SATURDAY. Even after all of that, I’ve never received this kind of money on my returns. I can’t recommend him enough.”

    “I have switched accountants over 10 times, all with different refunds and I was always unhappy with the result and service. Ever since I signed with Altruistic Accounting, I have had the largest refund with the best service. Finally, I found an accountant who picks up the phone and addresses my concerns!”

    “One of the most educated and professional accountants I have ever met. I asked thoughtful prudent questions and they took care of all my affairs. I strongly recommend coming here for all your tax needs. My concerns were addressed, timeliness expressed, and pricing was transparent. Thank you!”

  6. 5 out of 5 stars

    “Such a professional and caring accounting firm. They go above and beyond for their clients. They take extra time to ensure everything and I mean everything is explained to their clients and it’s all done correctly. We are so happy we switched over.”
