I’ve been using Alex Cabrera/SMS Accounting and his team for some time for all aspects of bookkeeping and accounting for my busy law firm and growing trust company. Alex is very professional, responsive and pays great attention to detail. As an accountant, he handles my accounts with the same care and interest that I personally would take. Alex is particularly knowledgeable on all aspects of legal bookkeeping and ensures we are in full compliance with all Law Society of BC and BC Financial Institution Commission requirements.
