CQ Taxation Services - Gladstone

CQ Taxation Services was founded in February 2013 by Director Allison Totorica. The company initially provided mobile bookkeeping and BAS services to local small businesses in Gladstone before incorporating taxation services and establishing a professional office in 2015. The organisation has grown to a team of 7. Allison Totorica is the Founder and Principal. Allison has over 25 years of experience as a Registered Tax Agent and Accountant, and is also an Accredited Mortgage Broker.

As a Registered Tax Agent, the firm is governed by the Tax Practitioners Board and required to maintain appropriate insurance cover. The firm provides a holistic suite of services to sole traders, partnerships, companies, and trusts, including bookkeeping, payroll, small business taxation, SMSF administration and financial statements. The firm does not outsource work and nothing is sent overseas. The firm provides all clients with clear and up-front pricing before starting work. The firm offers after-hours and weekend appointments. The firm serves the Gladstone region and beyond.

Gladstone clients of this accounting firm consistently highlight the depth of knowledge and the patient, thorough approach taken with tax returns. Allison is named repeatedly as a trusted adviser who assists with both personal and business taxation matters, and several reviewers note that even after relocating away from the region they continue to rely on her services for income, rental property and quarterly BAS work. Kylie is mentioned for her support with record keeping, while Chloe at reception is described as friendly, efficient and helpful when arranging appointments.

A theme running through the feedback is the stress-free nature of the process, with customers describing clear explanations, prompt turnaround and advice that is easy to understand. Small business operators mention assistance with taxation needs and ongoing queries throughout the year, extending from initial standard returns to more complex investment and business returns. Reviewers often mention affordable pricing and a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere, with professionalism and honesty standing out alongside the friendly service. Several long-standing clients describe returning year after year, citing trust in the advice and consistent precision across both business and personal tax work.
