Visual Media Solutions Review

I recently had some very custom business cards made with John and I think the results are fantastic. The output product is exactly what I wanted. In more detail:  I knew what I wanted to produce but not how to format the files, the dimensions, or the color.  John was patient and took the time to truly understand my project. He provided the necessary advice for me to understand what kind of design and media would work best for my situation. He was easy to reach by phone, prompt in returning e-mail, on-time with predicted estimates, and accurate in the cost assessment.

O'Neill Accounting Group Review

Keeping this review brief and from an experiential perspective, Sterck, Kulik, and O'Neill Accounting Group is hard to top. Of course, one might ask, how to qualify such a claim. With fairly complex personal and corporate tax returns on the table with complicated business structure transitions during the year, a strong and dedicated effort was delivered by the firm.

Upon completion of the process, I've never felt more comfortable with such a complex set of tax filings as I have with them. Not only was their interest in assuring that 2010 returns were solid and substantiated, but more importantly, that the stage was set for a sensible approach for future tax filings. Further, my corporate accounting and financial systems were enhanced to accommodate future business operations and growth trends.

La Cocina Community Kitchen Review

I love the mission of this organization, supporting new businesses with their community kitchen, but I love even more the fact that they sell the products of those biz at a booth at the ferry building farmer's market. I crave clairesquares now, shortbread and caramel with chocolate (dark for me please) and love the chai, the pies, the alfajores, I could go on, but the pants are all ready too snug! Check this booth out and feel good on a number of levels!

Doug Bend Review

I hired Doug a few times for various small-business-related issues. Each time, his price was more than reasonable and he was great to work with. He gave me a lot of attention, and his turnaround time was exceptional (he always got back to me within a day or two). Most of the other lawyers I have worked with have run up fees extraordinarily quickly, but Doug is super conscientious and works well with small businesses. I would highly recommend him for anything related to your small business or for any other legal advice.
