About Us
Our Summerville Office
FSU Accounting Group
FSU Accounting Group was founded by Dennis Fish in 1989. The vision for the company is to provide clients with personal service. When we meet potential clients, we always hear how little to no communication exists between themselves and their current accountants. Clients hesitate to call those accountants, in fear of being charged for asking a simple question.
However, we want our clients to know that we won’t “nickel & dime” them. We always welcome our clients to call us with a question, especially if it will impact their tax situations. Our job is to help our clients become aware of current tax law changes that will affect their progress in becoming successful business entities.
Our staff consists of three licensed accountants and two enrolled agents.

Testimonials & Reviews
When a partner takes the time to reply to a prospective client, not once but twice in the same day (and it just so ends up services AREN'T needed based on her well honed understanding of the tax law), THIS is great customer service and certainly a firm you should consider with your taxation related needs.

Michelle is very responsive and always available to answer questions. She’s done our taxes for 3 years and I always feel I’m in good hands!
Kate A.
Do Not use them!!!! Kate Debon failed to file My husband's retirement and it cost us 2.7k from the IRS and 2.7k from the state. Her response was nonchalant and took zero ownership of any of her actions or lack thereof. Sadly we previously used them the year prior and filed a retirement retirement don't just go away...3/5/24Since I posted this review I have been contacted by the business owner. She had taken the time to review the emails and my claims. She apologized and took ownership. I highly respect this. This staff member no longer works here -not because of this issue-. The Owner has fixed the state tax return and offered to send me a check for the penalties I had to pay for the state and federal tax. I appreciate her willingness to acknowledge her employee's error as well as offering to help mitigate the affect it had on our family.

This is the place to go to have your taxes done the right way, I've been doing my taxes with Chris Ulmer for 8 years , he always takes the time to answer your questions.
Maria L.
Chris Ulmer has been doing my taxes for years. He helped me when I was barely subsisting (complicated). He helped me when I was between careers and gig working (also complicated). And he helped me just now, with a life and finances that look radically different yet again. Please consider him for all your accounting needs! He knows what he's doing. 🙂

I have been doing taxes with Chris Ulmer for 14 years and I always had an amazing experience. Not only did he do taxes for South Carolina but he did the one Pennsylvania. The turn around is quick. I bring my folder to him and he calls me when ready. I highly suggest this company and the whole staff.

I thank the LORD for Michelle Moody and Chris Ulmer. I know first hand, what a difference it makes to be given true guidance and help when dealing with any tax problems. If you choose an unwise CPA, you will pay for later. In 2008, a dear friend directed us to Fish, Streyffeler & Ulmer Ltd. Chris Ulmer never made me feel stupid. He had compassion and helped us to get back on track. A few years ago, Michelle Moody took over and greatly helped us recently, through a very difficult situation. Her guidance step by step got us through a REAL storm. They are true professionals. You can trust, Michelle and Chris, with all your tax and accounting concerns. They really care! Holly and Maddy are wonderful too!

John King! Oh how I Love this man. He has been invaluable to me and my business for 15 years.(and personal Tax advise as well.) A GREAT man of integrity and kindness! Worked tirelessly for me to keep everything straight with the State & IRS. ( not an easy accomplishment!!!)Mr. John King, invaluable to any business!
Patricia H.
I have been using them for over 20 years. I have always been happy. Last year I changed who I used within the office, I have been every bit of pleased! And when I fully expected to walk out having to pay taxes, my refund was larger than ever. Thank you for always doing a GREAT job!!!
Terri W.
Ms. Moody did an amazing job with my personal, and corporate taxes. She went above, and beyond to ensure everything was completed properly. I highly recommend her.
Zachary F.
I would never go anywhere else for my taxes!! Mr. King is amazing, and has made my family his own. For this reason alone I wouldn't look anywhere else, but then there's more! This tax office takes time annually to stay current on the laws and changes and they've gotten me back the largest refunds that I've ever had. I love them, and no matter what, I would never go anywhere else!
Lisa W.
I was referred to Chris Ulmer by my parents, who actually began their journey with him in 1999, before he became a partner at FSU Ltd. Their first year with him saved my parents over $3,000. He found deductions for their business that Turbotax (for business) didn't find. From that moment on, Chris has been their 'hero".In 2007, I finally took my parents advice and called Chris. I've been with him every year since then and I can attest to the fact that he really knows tax and tax laws. He's said to me on many occasions that he's not just there for me during tax season, he's there all year long to answer any and all questions that come up during the year. I don't just consider him my accountant, I consider him my friend.
Michael S.
I would recommend Fish, Streyffeler & Ulmer, Ltd. What a great firm. I'm greeted with a friendly smile and professional staff with every appointment. They're proficient, knowledgeable, up to date on new tax laws and address my questions and concerns in a timely manor.
Jennifer M.
This is my second year with Mr Ulmer. He is easy to work with and patiently answers all my questions. The rates are reasonable, the staff is very friendly and respectful. I highly recommend this tax service.

You guys need to go see John. Don't tell him I sent you though. He might start to blush and crack jokes about me. Great work all around and more than worth my time. Low stress and extremely smooth process. Border line vacation experience. Do not waste your time anywhere else!
Jeffrey G.
Great people with great customer service.
Laurie F.
During a difficult three years of my life, this firm helped out tremendously. They were always a phone call away if I had any questions about my finances and taxes. When it came down to doing my taxes every year, not only did it put my mind at ease from not worrying about the ends and outs Tax Laws, but it allowed me to focus on other priorities in my life. They are extremely dedicated and focused on their clients and most of all prompt.

Jackson V.
I have been a client for over 20 years, all the way back to Carmen Fish. He set the bar high for Chris Ulmer and Chris has delivered since taking over on my accounts. As a doctor, I use most of my time learning how to help people with their health, no time for IRS rules and laws; I completely trust Chris Ulmer to handle the tax situation for both my business and family.
Dr. Mike A.
Thank the Lord for Chris and his team, I don’t have to worry about personal and business taxes, or managing the payroll and employees for my business. Their staff is really easy going, professional and Just plain awesome!
Olga K.
I can’t say enough about how superior the service that FSU provides compared to previous firms that I have experienced. From my relatively simple personal tax returns to more complicated business filings, they handle it all with aplomb. They even handle payroll processing and the never ending tax filings so that I can spend less time complying with government and more time with customers. A+ and two big fat thumbs up!! 👍 👍
Neil M.
Great staff! Very helpful, knowledgeable, and polite! Highly recommended!
David G.
