WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING


Stacey L.

HAPPY CLIENT

I have had my business for more than 10 years and struggled through several *truly awful* accountants in the early years. I found Presti & Naegele about five years ago and have never looked back. They are a life-changing breath of fresh air and they will be my accountants for as long as I live. Donald Sager brings me confidence, peace and calm in an area of the business that would otherwise be stressful. He knows what he's doing and is always extremely responsive and ready with a plan of action and to explain anything at all. I am so grateful for him!
