My Experience:
(disclosure, I like CPAs, respect the professional them and once wanted to be one in past). 

So I've been interviewing quite a few CPAs in past couple of years, and whom ever I talk to either tried to sell me LLCs formation for $1500 (which btw I can do myself and have done it in past for faction of cost), or proposed filing cost of $1500 per LLC with number of hours of consultation fee etc etc.

I always wondering, is there any simple, straight forward, reasonable CPAs out there who simply file taxes without scaring clients off with various stories to up sell some of their services. 

Still looking for one, till then I am my own CPA :).  (again no disrespect indented).

@Sal Zafar and @Fred Shank send me a PM.  If you want only tax preparation with minimal planning/consultation I may be able to accommodate you or send you to someone who can.
