Dave Minhas and his team has added great value to my business's. They look after all my employees EFT payments, T4's, ROE's, and much more. It saves me to having to hire permanent staff because the nature my my business is seasonal and stock driven. They continue to help keep my overhead low. Pivotal's experts in many different financial areas have come in handy for me multiply times. Its nice to be able to have one stop shopping at Pivotal with fair bills.

For nearly a decade I have entrusted Pivotal LLP (formerly Heywood Holmes) with all of my business and personal accounting needs. I am warmly welcomed each time I call or drop into the office and every time I meet with Dave Minhas, my Accountant, I learn more about my own financials; Dave explains what the numbers really mean and that information, along with his guidance, helps me understand what is happening within my own business. I trust Dave and the whole team at Pivotal - I know that they care not only about the success of my business but also about me and my well being.

Pivotal has been an asset to our business. We interviewed accountants accross Alberta and have been through a few previous accountments we were less than satisfied with. We met with Dave Minhas and he immidiately was able to point out some key points we needed to take action on with our group of companies. We have a unique corpate structure previous firms have had trouble keeping up with. Since hiring Pivotal Dave has not only been an asset in accounting but also as a trusted advisor in many areas incuding growth and strategy. A huge diference we have had with this firm is the priority you are

Our group of companies have been with Dave Minhas and the Pivotal team for about 2 years now. They have been helping us clean up our systems and continue to work with us on direction moving forward. Dave is not only our accountant but someone we can call and brainstorm business strategies and operations with. I truly consider Dave as a intricate part of our team and without question the best accountant I have come across. Highly recommended!!

Our accountant Dave MInhas at Pivotal LLP is an incredibly intelligent accountant. We've been through a few accountants over the past few years. We had a major issue with one in particular. After that terrible experience we interviewed a few major firms around Central Alberta, and Dave was a last minute request. He came in without preparation or knowing our business model or much about us. In his interview he asked us dozens of questions(that no one else even brought up), related to accounting, management and what our future plans were. He set us on a path that without him we wouldn't be where
