Robert's client say
“Overall we were really pleased with the service and deliverables. We also really appreciated your specific patience with us guiding us through the process, given we had limited tax knowledge within our team (I now know far too much about tax returns than I ever imagined!). You also pointed out a lot of future/forward looking aspects that were much appreciated. Additionally, it was good having you as the bridge between us and the US team at times, it was initially difficult for us to get aligned with them but you did a great job bringing us all together to deliver on time.”
