Accounting! My books were a mess. I was looking for a Bookkeeper I could ask questions to, but not feel embarrassed for asking. She's helped my business get my finances and Tax returns in order. She tells me what I can and can't deduct. She's very precise. Everything you want in an Accountant. I only wish I had more employees so she could handle my Payroll too! Definitely the Best in North East Florida! Could not be happier.

Lisa Whitley and First Coast Accounting has been the missing but necessary piece in my business success! Lisa and her team got my books cleaned up and because of that I was able to receive a sizable Tax return because of them last year. Thanks to their Bookkeeping, I was also able to fill out all my small business loan applications through this pandemic, in minutes. What I love most about Lisa is that I can ask her questions about Payroll, deductions, what have you and she walks me through the areas I'm weakest in. There are very few people that I trust for financial guidance, I am definitely her biggest Client fan! My highest recommendation. I'd give her 10 stars if I could. Seriously!
