Who is R&G Brenner?

Here at R&G Brenner, we have a reputation of being a company you can trust. We are the oldest and largest privately owned all-year income tax preparation business currently operating in the United States, and we have been a family owned company since our establishment in 1941.

The company was started as the Tax Center by David S. Brenner C.P.A. along with his wife, Betty Brenner. At the time, we were the first business of the kind, and we quickly gained a reputation of being dependable and trustworthy. That reputation still holds true today.

We are currently owned and operated by third generation Brenners, and we still practice the same principles of providing great customer service and a caring, family environment that our company’s founders believed in so strongly. Most of our consultants have worked for us for years, and any new consultants go through a rigorous screening process to be sure you receive only the best service.

In addition to our friendly, hands-on feel, we are also up to date on all the current trends in income tax consulting. We offer electronic filing options, fast service, and a quick turnaround at a very fair price.
