About Us

Our experience working with Rachel and Adam has been excellent! They have dramatically improved our accounting process …. They are easy to work with, knowledgeable and very responsive to our needs.

Their reporting tools are just awesome. As a nonprofit, I've received multiple compliments from funders and board members about the quality and helpfulness of their financial reports. They are our trusted financial counsel and I'm grateful for all that they do. I highly recommend this firm.

— Educational nonprofit

Friedland + Associates has been a trusted partner for our nonprofit organization for almost two years. They are knowledgeable, patient, responsive, and affordable. I highly recommend Friedland + Associates for financial services.

“Rachel and her team have handled the books for our one-week summer camp… Rachel's references told me that she was a friendly, responsive, dedicated professional who would not be afraid to roll up her sleeves and dig into complex problems. Indeed, that has been my experience … I cannot say enough about how smart, practical and responsive Rachel is. She's a pleasure to work with.”

— Owner, Summer Camp

So great to have Rachel in our corner! Really helped our small(ish) nonprofit - in fact, we hired her at my new organization too! Very helpful - really understands how small nonprofits operate. She helped us tidy up our processes and move us to online services such as Quickbooks. Total confidence in her work!

— Teresa, Accounting & Bookkeeping Client

In two hours, Rachel answered my QBO and bookkeeping questions. She's non-judgmental and has a good sense of humor …. It's hard to believe how much I got from just two hours of training. My only regret... I wish I'd hired her months ago. I'd have a lot more hair on my head. :)

— QBO Newbie

We had been doing our bookkeeping ourselves and were in desperate need of an individual like Rachel to help us set everything straight. With Rachel's help, we are much more organized and can generate reports as necessary, rather than retroactively create them, as we had been doing prior.

— Zack, Technology Start-Up

We consulted and hired Rachel who has neatened everything up, made our nonprofit more efficient and consistently rescues me from bookkeeping questions and problems with ease! Rachel communicates clearly, efficiently, promptly and balances her knowledge with humor and openness.”

— Performing Arts Nonprofit

If you're a small business, or a single-person business like me, Rachel is a great choice. I'm a designer and Quickbooks often baffles me. Rachel helps me to better understand Quickbooks Online, which is no small feat for me, and she does it pleasantly and with candor … I highly recommend her!

— Owner, Design Firm

Rachel's references told me that she was a friendly, responsive, dedicated professional who would not be afraid to roll up her sleeves and dig into complex problems. Indeed, that has been my experience ….. Rachel has not only put our books into proper order, she teaches me continually …. I cannot say enough about how smart, practical and responsive Rachel is.

— Owner, Summer Camp

We work particularly closely with Liz Steppe, who's always 100% on top of our books and beyond this, is a pleasure to work with. Liz and Rachel are knowledgeable, extremely quick to respond, and meticulous. They also invest in getting to know us as a team ….. Highly recommend working with Liz and Rachel.”

— President at Higher Educational Institution

Got more accomplished in a two-hour in-person meeting with Rachel than months with [our] old accountant. She is a great teacher for the QBO layman. Explained things in simple terms. Solutions-oriented. And a very nice person. One of the best finds for professional services for my small business so far." 

— Dave, Travel Agency Owner

I have worked with Rachel for 3.5 years and she has been great. She is responsive (often dealing with urgent matters during outside work hours), timely, and provides great advice and input …. Rachel is a great team player and very easy to work with. She is authentic, down to earth and knowledgeable with quickbooks and many other accounting matters.

— Head of School, Independent K-8 School

Our non-profit theater and school has worked with Friedland Associates since December 2021. Rachel and her team are excellent to work with. She has helped us to overhaul and simplify reporting and budgeting systems and to implement enhanced monthly reporting as well as doing our day to day bookkeeping. She is very efficient, reliable and a pleasure to work with.

— Executive Director, Theater Company

Even though she did not have any previous experience working with architecture clients, she quickly got up to speed with our accounting and our preferred way of working. She was instrumental in transitioning us away from QuickBooks Desktop and over to QuickBooks Online …. Rachel and her team have been completely professional, reliable, and have consistently delivered their services without missing any deadlines ….. I highly recommend working with her without any reservations.

— Owner, Architecture Firm

In addition to keeping my books up to date and making sure my tax needs are taken care of, she is willing to patiently explain things to me and correct my errors when I go rogue in QuickBooks …. She is always coming up with new ways to make things easier and more efficient. She is friendly, supportive, patient, and professional. I highly recommend her.
