THE BEGINNING
Stephen Blake founded Bristax in 2009 with the goal to help people save money on their taxes. Since then, Bristax has become a valued resource for regular clients, as well as those who have had their taxes prepared elsewhere and find themselves needing them “fixed” to avoid an audit or other trouble.
Originally serving clients in Brisbane, Bristax has since digitally expanded to cater to the needs of every Australian. Wherever you are in the country or in the world, you can receive tax return preparation and tax advice services via phone, video call, or online.
