Paul Mabray

Yountville 

“DJ Lipton-Weide corrected accounting and tax mistakes from previous vendors and created a strong accounting compliance process going forward. She worked extraordinary hours with complicated tax structures to get us the optimal outcome and — all along the way — with kindness and a jovial spirit that made the experience an absolute pleasure. I recommend her highly.”

Giselle Lampe

Giselle Lampe Napa Valley Realtor, Napa

“DJ Lipton Weide helped me save money. First, her fee was a lot less than the large firm I used previously. Second, I was very impressed with her knowledge, people skills and how she could break down a complicated tax law into easy-to-understand terms. Third, she helped relatives of mine who hadn’t filed taxes in years because their situation changed and they didn’t know how to handle it. DJ understood their situation and helped them work out a manageable plan and saved them lots of money, too.”
