About Michael Mellace

Michael A. Mellace, CPA is the owner of Pink Harbor, CPA. Michael has been resolving clients tax problems for over 20 years. Michael founded Pink Harbor, CPA on the main guiding principle of servicing clients with compassion and integrity. No one should feel ashamed of owing tax debt, and everyone should have a right to honest, affordable representation. Pink Harbor, CPA has a highly educated staff and all staff members are required to attend significant hours of continuing education each year.

Michael doesn't like those "tax shops" that charge a huge, up-front fee and often deliver results that are far less than promised. Instead, Pink Harbor, CPA charges a small fee to evaluate each client's unique tax situation, and then proposes a course of action to resolve the matter. No set of tax problems are exactly alike,

Pink Harbor, CPA has an educational approach to servicing clients. Our extensive YouTube video collections and blog articles are filled with vast resources. We explain tax solutions to you in common, everyday language. We keep you fully updated on your case, and are incredibly responsive to any calls or e-mails.

Worked on Case Together | Jul 9, 2024
I worked with Mike on a couple of cases. Most recently on a large case to help file several years of unfiled business tax returns (I assisted with the bookkeeping and preparation of the returns) and set client up with an installment arrangement. Mike is very detail oriented, tech savvy, and gives clients a thorough explanation of what they can expect. He gives no unrealistic promises, like settling millions in taxes for for pennies (like some of the other large companies in this market).

Advised on Unpaid Taxes, Tax Return Mistake | Jun 24, 2024
Michael from Pink Harbor resolved some lingering tax issues that I've had for years. He was able to amend returns with issues and he got a bigger refund this year as well as some past years. Very easy to schedule an appointment with him and takes the time to review the documents. Love his office, so clean and great cookies. I highly suggest hiring Pink Harbor!

Pink Harbor is the best! Mike helped me with my taxes going through a divorce. I told him things would be complicated due to this and things related to alimony, child support, extra taxes and IRS tax problems. Mike handled it all and didn't flinch at all. I highly recommend Mike Mellace without flinching either
