Why Choose Catalyst CPA in Riverside
Most Riverside small businesses don't need a national accounting firm — they need a CPA who knows the local economy, the school-district calendar, and what Riverside entrepreneurs actually deal with. That's what we do.
Licensed California CPA — License #158599
Adham Abadier is a licensed California Certified Public Accountant. Every tax return, every set of financial statements, every IRS response goes out under that license — not a bookkeeper's signature, not a chain-store template. License verifiable at the California Board of Accountancy.
Local to the Inland Empire — Office in Moreno Valley
Catalyst CPA is headquartered in Moreno Valley, 20-40 minutes from Riverside depending on the time of day. We meet Riverside clients via secure video portal — most prefer it — but in-person consultations at your office or a Riverside coworking space are available on request. We know Riverside's economy (healthcare + education + professional services + agriculture legacy) and the industries that show up in our books.
QuickBooks Gold ProAdvisor + Industry Specialists
QuickBooks Online is our default. We're a Gold ProAdvisor — Intuit's top tier — which means cleanup, migration, and ongoing bookkeeping is faster + cheaper than going through a generalist. Industries we see often around Riverside: healthcare + education + professional services + agriculture legacy. Each industry has tax rules and software setups specific to it; we don't apply a generic template.
Free 30-Minute Consult — Real Quote, Same Day
Most CPA firms want you to fill out a 6-page intake form before quoting. We give Riverside business owners a 30-minute video call with the licensed CPA who'll actually do the work, then quote a flat fee same day. If the fit isn't right, no pressure — we'll tell you who in the Inland Empire might be a better match.
Serving small businesses across Riverside (population ~320,000) — including the Riverside Unified School District + Alvord USD service area. Notable local: UC Riverside, Riverside Community Hospital, Mission Inn.
