Client Testimonials
“We have been working with Intrepid for over 5 years now, and they have produced significant savings for us. Their engineering staff is extremely knowledgeable, and is very experienced in the understanding and documentation of research and development projects. Their fine work has never been challenged by any taxing authority, and continues to provide value to our firm.”
"The team at Intrepid guided our company through a multi-year R&D Tax Credit project that recovered significant R&D Tax Credit refunds for our company."
"We have always filed for an R&D Tax credit but until Intrepid Advisors got involved we were not fully capitalizing on the value of the credit. We have nine years of returns filed with Intrepid’s guidance and the recovery of R&D investments has been substantial. They are professional and work hard to minimize the workload on my firm. I recommend their services highly."
