Pricing is not the only questions asked if we are assessing for your companies capabilities which judging by your responses to these poor reviews, is not much. Gave them a call to assess if this would be a good choice to file my taxes this year as i am new to the area/state. Upon calling, she answered a few of my questions but continuously referenced me to the website in which i did have open. I proceeded to mention that chatting is easier for me to understand and will look at the website after. As i paused a bit, she commented that if i didnt have any other questions, there are a lot of phone calls coming in. Well, if the initial encounter isn't good, i cant imagine the rest.

So they did my taxes and did them accurately. I'm not so sure that they saved me any money, but…read morethey didn't cost me any extra either. The problem came when the IRS did not post my final payment. I received a bill from the IRS saying that I owed them over $2000. I sent the letter and the proof of payment to them and asked them what happened? They told me that I had to call the IRS to find out why they didn't post my payment. I even reverified that they were not going to make that call for me. My taxes are complicated, and I have had a CPA prepare my taxes and electronically file them every year for the past 30 years. Things like this don't happen often, but when they do THE CPA IS THE ONE WHO CALLS THE IRS ON MY BEHALF!! If there were an error on the preparation of the document, then I would have been at a loss to explain it. I ended up waiting on the phone for 4 hours and was able to get it straightened out myself. However, I am now looking for another accounting firm because this is not the level of service I require. At the same time, as I said, they prepared my taxes accurately, so I don't think it's fair to give them just one star. I'm not sure I would recommend them though, just based upon the fact that they aren't going to help you if anything goes wrong.

I was referred to John due to the complexity of my 2021 tax return, but my return was ultimately prepared by another member of the team. An error on the return later resulted in an IRS audit and over $1,500 in penalties and interest, which I paid in full. Following this, I had significant difficulty getting timely responses or assistance despite multiple follow-ups. Overall, this experience caused me to lose confidence in the firm's attention to detail and client communication. Based on my experience, I would recommend carefully considering other CPA options in the San Diego area.
