About Our CPA Firm

Joe Mastriano, CPA

Joe graduated Magna Cum Laude from one of the top state schools in New York, SUNY at Buffalo. After working for Arthur Young, a big 8 accounting firm, he started his CPA firm in 1980. After the first few years specializing in taxpayer representation, the firm became a referral source for other CPA’s and attorneys. Over the last 40 years Joe has helped people resolve their most difficult tax matters. He has also helped many people overcome their issues causing them to not file, owe taxes, be audited, and in general, not feel the joy and excitement they did when they first started their profession or their business. Joe says that poor accounting records, unfiled returns, overpaying taxes, allowing yourself to be audited, and feeling that your job or business is a chore, are symptoms of something much greater. He says “let’s put an end to this now. Let’s fix what’s wrong and let our professions (jobs) and businesses be an empowering force in our lives”. Call us now, before the IRS and creditors get to you first.

Today Joe is sought out by people who have hired other companies who made wild promises of results. These people are now worse off after spending thousands of dollars foolishly. Joe shows people how to look past the promised claims of results, and understand not to trust companies unless they are professionally licensed by the state they are in. Statements such as “We have over 50 years combined experience.” “We work the fastest or your money back.” “We can definitely get you an offer for X amount of dollars.” must be examined closely. Is there a licensed professional firm making the statement? Does it make sense? Many claims of results by non-licensed professional firms are unethical.
Many tax representation firms are in business to take advantage of your tax situation. They hike up fees to pay their high priced sales people. Are they experienced and knowledgeable enough to help you guide your company to success? Over 90% of payment plans with the IRS fail. Joe stands for “Ethical, Professional, Experienced, Results”. Do not settle for less!

His clients have experienced amazing success in their personal and business lives. You can too.
