    After going through CPAs and many other sources to get my tax situation solved, I found Clean Slate to be the best. They dealt with my taxes and a professional way and got all my issues solved to me. They are the greatest.

    After burning through three CPAs who left me in the dark with shoddy advice, I was ready to pull my hair out--until I found Joe Pirotta and his team. Joe's responsiveness is next-level; I can ping him almost anytime, and if he's tied up, I get a quick text or email to set a call the next day. No ghosting here! His team dove into my tax mess, uncovering blind spots I didn't know existed. Case in point: I'd forgotten to file Form 2553 to elect S Corp status for my companies, defaulting to C Corp--ouch. Joe's crew fixed this retroactively for three years, saving me thousands in taxes. Their genuine care makes all the difference; they're not just number-crunchers, they're problem-solvers who've got your back. If you're tired of CPA roulette, trust Joe Pirotta's team to get it right. Highly recommend!

    The team at Clean Slate was extremely helpful in alleviating the stress and work of dealing with our tax situation. They kept us informed and would promptly answer questions. We are very grateful for their services.

    I reached out to CleanStateTax for help with an IRS payment agreement and paid a very high fee for their service. Unfortunately, the agreement they provided was not what I expected. When I contacted them again, they told me I would need to pay an additional nearly $3,000 to redo the agreement. While they appear professional, be cautious--if you have a similar experience, you could end up paying much more than you owe to the IRS just for an agreement.

    I worked with Joe Pirrotta during the summer of 2023 to complete tax returns under a tight deadline. Joe and his team at CST understood the urgency, worked seemlessly with my bookkeepers, were very responsive, and completed the returns to meet my deadline. I recommend working with Joe and CST without reservation.
