Maria Torres’ commitment to the community is obvious in every call she takes from every client. An excellent mother, daughter, sister, and friend to her loved ones, she also extends beyond to include, support, and encourage her clients in improving their financial lives while preparing their taxes. Her clients describe her as honest, fair, efficient, professional, and, above all, deeply in tune with their financial lives and the tax preparation needs that best suit their situation. From the moment she arrived in the US, Maria has been immersing herself in the tax code to provide her clients with the most accurate tax information not only in Spanish and English but also with the cultural humility, plain talk, and respect her clients deserve. Since 1999, she has provided excellence and care to her clients, most of whom have stuck with her until now.
