Rochester Families
A Local Tax Office That Actually Feels Like a Conversation
Rosalie's Tax Service was founded on a simple idea: tax season shouldn't be intimidating. After years working in corporate accounting, Rosalie saw how many people in the Rochester area were either overpaying out of confusion or avoiding filing altogether because they didn't know where to start.
That's why we built a practice around patience and clarity. When you walk through our doors on West Broad Street, you're not a case number — you're a neighbor. We take the time to explain each line, answer every "what-if" question, and make sure you leave knowing exactly what you're getting back (or what you owe).
The Difference Is in the Details
We know there are plenty of places to get your taxes done. Here's what makes Rosalie's different — and why people keep coming back.
Transparent Pricing
No surprise fees, no "additional complications" charged on top. We give you a clear quote before we start, and that's the price you pay. Period.
No-Jargon Explanations
We explain your return in plain English. You'll understand your deductions, credits, and refund — not just see a number on a screen.
Year-Round Support
Tax season isn't the only time we're here. Questions come up in July, February, or March — we're a phone call away whenever you need us.
Convenient Location
Right on West Broad Street in central Rochester, with easy street parking and close to public transit. Walk in during business hours — no appointment needed for simple returns.
What Our Clients Say
Don't just take our word for it — hear from real people in the Rochester area who trust us with their taxes.
"I've been coming to Rosalie's for four years now and I wouldn't go anywhere else. She caught a deduction I'd missed for three straight years. Friendly, patient, and genuinely cares that you get the right answer."
"As a freelance graphic designer, my taxes are way more complicated than a simple W-2. Rosalie took the time to explain every schedule and made sure I wasn't leaving money on the table. I actually look forward to tax season now — can you believe that?"
"I got an IRS notice last year and was panicking. Rosalie handled everything — she wrote the response, followed up, and explained exactly what was going on. I slept soundly after that. Worth every penny and then some."
