Service: Accounting support for tax declaration and activity regime change

I hired Leonel Francisco as an accountant for my green receipts, so it was both work and private. My experience with him was really, really good, above expectation, and once we were in conversation, he explained everything very patiently and very clearly, so I actually understood what we were doing. He helped me with the IRS declaration, changing the activity I’m practising, and changing the IVA regime. Besides my questions, he also checked a few extra things to see if everything was going well and gave me advice on things I had never thought about.
