We had an extremely positive experience with Tick Tax Port Adelaide. Catherine was fantastic. She made what is normally a tedious job of doing your tax return into a fun, positive experience. She is very knowledgeable especially when it comes to investment property information and information on superannuation. We are very happy that we now have an accountant that we are happy with and can trust.
