Charles assisted me with a very technical tax declaration. His summary was very clear, structured, and precise. Very available, pedagogical, and rigorous. I recommend him without hesitation.

We migrated our accounting to Pennylane, but several settings were not configured correctly during the year, particularly for the company's PayPal activity. Charles corrected all the entries for the year in a very short time. I recommend his efficiency and the quality of his deliverables.
