I live at Hope Island on the Gold Coast and have been getting my tax matterrs done by Craig Baker & assoc for the past 8 years. After using different firms in Brisbane and Gold Coast over the past 20 years I have been pleasantly surprised by this company. Service is first class, they get back to you very quickly, quality of work and advice is highly professional, and the rates are competitive if not better than others. I would highly recommend them for all tax matters and advice. Regards Michael Distasi.
