When we fell 7 months behind in our bookkeeping, Chris came onsite and, within a day and a half, had us caught up. He also gave us great tips on how to save time. Great service!

“I was at the end of my rope working with a bookkeeper who had neither the time nor interest to invest in my community-based not-for-profit literacy organization when I was first introduced to Chris at Leading Ledgers. After only a few weeks working with Chris as our new accountant, I knew that he and his company were something completely unique.

Chris and Tania offer us hands-on, around-the-clock support and advice, living the credo: there are no stupid questions. They gently but confidently help me to navigate the murky waters of not-for-profit accounting, funding, and reporting. If they don’t know the answer to something, they find it – and fast. Chris and Tania have become our organization’s go-to experts for taxation, government financial reporting, and annual budgetary planning - I would be lost without their sage, informed, and professional guidance helping to steer the financial direction of our ship year to year.

A million and one thanks to Leading Ledgers!”

"We are the owners of a small, custom cabinet shop and tried to do everything ourselves. It got to a point where every spare hour was spent doing paperwork, logging receipts, entering data - we realized it too away from our productivity. When you're so stressed about tax deadlines and payroll and keeping up with the bookkeeping, it's not fun anymore. Our saviours were Tania and Chris of Leading Ledgers when they lifted the weight of the world off my shoulders, freed my spare time and got us completely organized. Now we are regularly informed of deadlines. No more stress - we can concentrate on growing our business. It's been 5 years and we're so appreciative of their expertise."

"After 40 years with a Vancouver accounting company, I decided to make a change when I moved to Parksville! It was a great decision as I found Leading Ledgers! With Tania Madarasz as my book keeper and Chris Madaraz as my accountant, my personal and business affairs are taken care of in a timely, efficient manner, and with a level of care that surpasses my expectations! I highly recommend them !"

Chris saved us over $400 a month in bookkeeping fees after our existing bookkeeper left unexpectedly. He quickly understood our industry-specific accounting system and got us back on track. Over and above the bookkeeping, he saved us thousands of dollars over the next four years by reviewing and fine tuning our operations. Thanks for the help!
