In my opinion Taxes are not done by a skilled professional and they don't back up their work. The preparer is not a CPA.

Troy and his team are by far the best in north Alabama. I trust nobody else to do my own taxes or answer any questions I have. Top-notch service!

I got to experience first hand the level of knowledge and personal attention that the KeyTax team provide and that their valued clients enjoy. It was both refreshing and impressive. Well done!

We highly recommend Key Tax Solutions for all your tax, accounting, and financial needs! Troy helped us during a stressful time dealing with the IRS. He gave us calm reassurance by telling us exactly what to do, how to do it, and even went above and beyond by handling some of the details himself which was not his responsibility yet he did it anyway.
Also, Troy gave us a concise checklist on what records/receipts to keep for the upcoming tax year's deductions. Such a simple item, but after never having had any kind of checklist to guide us, it's value has proven to be Huge! The checklist alone
