Sun City, AZMalea has saved me thousands of dollars on taxes over the years. I own a small house cleaning business and was in need of a tax professional that worked to maximize my deductions and lower my tax liability. Malea not only did that but she set up an S Corporation for my business and was able to substantially lower my Self Employment tax. I would recommend Malea to anyone, I think she is the best.

Brigham City, UTInitially, I hired Malea to organize my home office. My husband passed away in 2014 and since then, I couldn’t bring myself to go through all the paperwork that had accumulated. Malea organized my home office and helped me prepare for my move to Utah. Now that I am in Utah, Malea continues to help me. Most recently, she walked me through the steps to pay my Arizona property taxes over the phone. She helped me call and add my name to the warranty list for my homebuilder in Utah. She has done so much more than I have written here. I trust Malea. She is smart and wonderful to be around. I think everyone could use Malea’s expertise.

Sun City, AZWe are so grateful for all that you have done for us this year. Ours is a complicated bookkeeping/ accounting situation. We have a small business, a real estate LLC, as well as 3 personal checking accounts that need to be coordinated and balanced every month. When you took us on as clients, the small business hadn’t actually been balanced for 7 months. You rescued us. This was very important because Dan had just been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. He had been the one, who for the past 40 years, had taken care of all the books. Now he needed to devote himself to taking care of himself. You made that possible. He is in some kind of therapy every day. He sings in a Parkinson’s music group that performs around the area. He doesn’t have to worry about the bookkeeping because it’s in competent hands. I couldn’t have taken those projects on at all. Not my strength. Not my interest. Thank goodness it is yours. I don’t know how you do it. You are always available. Always there for us. You have become a good friend and you feel like family. I should want to keep you as a great secret, but I want the best for you as well. So we are so happy to recommend you to any potential client who want to hire the best. Because that’s what you are to us.

New JerseyMalea Madrid has been a godsend to us. My parents live in Arizona and I am 2,500 miles away in New Jersey. Malea had been helping my dad organize and consolidate his many financial accounts into a more manageable system. This became especially important as his mental state was deteriorating due to dementia. When he passed in February 2017, Malea’s assistance was essential to figuring out what needed to be paid off, accounts to be closed, pension issues, etc. I don’t know how I would have managed it all without her guidance. I would give Malea the highest of recommendations to anyone who needs her services.

Wittmann, AZWhen I first met Malea, I was reluctant to have her prepare my taxes as she is my step-daughter, and I do no believe in mixing family with business, especially since I had not been married to her mother very long. I soon realized however, Malea understands finances and taxes very well and she has been preparing my taxes for the past 6 years. I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Malea to everyone for her tax service and for the other work she offers. She is caring, knowledgeable, and intelligent.
