CPA Services For Individuals

Tired of working on your taxes yourself? Tired of working with a CPA who isn’t on your side?


Every year, April 15 gets here before you know it, and it’s time to pull out piles of receipts, bank statements, pay stubs, rental property records, and so much more and try to make sense of it all.


It’s quite a task, isn’t it?

We understand that taking care of taxes year after year might not be what you look forward to doing! That’s why Straight Talk CPAs is here.

Tax Planning and Preparation

Today’s tax laws are so complex that filing a simple tax return can be confusing and a daunting task. Our team of New Jersey CPAs is equipped with knowledge on the latest tax laws (including the recent healthcare changes), so we can help you keep more money in your pocket each year.


Here are just a few of the benefits of preparing your tax returns with our accounting firm at Straight Talk CPAs:


  • We’ll sit together to get to know you and make sure we are uncovering all the tax deductions that are yours to claim.


  • We also have a convenient “drop-off” service. Just drop off or email (using our secure server) your tax documents to us and we’ll call and let you know about additional deductions.


  • You’re protected by our “Never-Worry-About-Your-Taxes Again” ACCURACY GUARANTEE! We’ll check and re-check your tax return to identify potential problems the IRS may look at.


  • Receive expert advice of legal tax deductions and tax credits for this year and the following year.

Estate Planning

Planning what happens to your estate when you’re gone can seem too big of a task to tackle. That’s where we come in. We can help you clearly define your estate planning goals and evaluate and recommend options. Our goal is to lessen your taxes at the time of death, so your loved ones don’t have to worry.In the past we have helped our clients with advice regarding:



  • Living wills and trusts
  • Lifetime family wealth transfers
  • Family partnerships and other business relationships
  • Leaving money to charities
  • Preparation for estate and trust tax problems

We Can Help With Your Estate Planning

One thing we hear from our clients over and over again is a desire to leave more to their families or favorite charities. We actively find ways to reduce the taxes that will need to be paid by the recipients of your estate.


Remember that whatever you own makes up your estate. If you own a modest house with a few furnishings, along with one 15-year-old car, that’s your estate. If you own rental properties, a boat, an RV, and a primary residence along with a summer home on the beach, that’s your estate. What’s more, all of your bank accounts, random possessions, stocks and bonds, and other assets and finances also make up important segments of your overall estate.

Protect What You Own

It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or not so much, if you have investments or not much more than a few treasures passed down from relatives. Whatever you own, that makes up your estate, and careful tax and estate planning will protect your possessions, assets, and/or investments. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you simply don’t have enough to warrant protecting it. You have more than you realize! If you want to leave as much as you possibly can to your family when you’re no longer here, make sure to take the time now to do savvy, prudent estate planning.

Tax Resolution Services

If you ever receive that dreaded letter from the IRS, we can help STOP the continuing letters, STOP the phone calls, STOP the bank levies, and STOP the collection process. Our team has the experience and tools to deal directly with the IRS and restore your peace of mind.

Why Tax Resolution Services Matter

Everyone makes mistakes from time to time, even the IRS. And of course, individuals who work on their own taxes can make errors as well. When mistakes are made by either side, problems can arise for the person who filed taxes.

Have Someone By Your Side

If you go solo with your taxes, when you get an unpleasant letter from the IRS, who can you turn to? If you work with us, we will have your back! When a less-than-desired communication comes in from the IRS, we will stand by you and help you with:


  • Ending the stream of disruptive letters from the IRS
  • Stopping the tax-related phone calls you may be getting
  • Putting an end to the collection process before damage is done to you and your finances
