I discovered Mark Stanhope when I moved to the area in 2016 and found that my tax situation had…read morebecome too complex for me to handle alone, and while using a well known tax preparation software. Mark told me what documents I would need, including returns from the preceding 2 years. He submitted amended returns for my previous 2 years and got me refunds on both. He then filed my current return and although we did owe some money, I now had much higher confidence in the accuracy of the filed returns, both federal and state. Since that first year, our situation has continued to grow in complexity and I no longer worry when tax time comes 'round. I fill out Mark's annual summary survey and return along with my receipts and am amazed that I typically get back my completed return, ready to file, in just a few days. Though we have had a few years where we owed money on our returns, this year (2021) was very tough for my wife and me. I had a job change and my wife had 2 job changes, we sold our house and moved from MA to NH. Coupled with some 401K rollovers, and our tax situation was even more confusing and beyond my ability to manage. Mark, again, looking closely at all options, found us a surprisingly large refund for the year. I was thrilled this filing season to learn that Mark will be able to continue filing our Federal and MA returns even though we have moved out of state. Mark is personable, professional, and very knowledgeable. I have no reservations whatsoever in recommending him to anybody who is looking for any of the services his firm offers.

In my almost 40 years, I have never written a bad review of a business. Today is a first. The…read morequality of the customer service I received from O'Connor Maloney warrants me wasting time out of my day to express my concerns and warn other potential clients. At the beginning of our meeting, I told the CPA that I already started filing my 2020 taxes on TurboTax, but it said that I would owe the state of Massachusetts money, which I did not think was right. That was part of the reason why my (then) fiancé and I sought financial and tax preparation advice from a CPA. At the time, I was a full-time student and had earned about $1500 in 2020 working part-time. Filing as a single person, I was technically below the poverty line. The CPA told me that because I withdrew from some of my investments, I still needed to pay capital gains, even though this money went towards the purchase of our home that year. My fiancé's returns would be a little more involved and would cost $350; there was no mention of an additional $350 for mine. At one point during the meeting he said my returns "will not cost anything", or words to that effect. For someone, who I assume has been in this industry for some time, he should have known after a cursory glance at my paperwork (for very simple returns), that I would end up owing that year. After having already completed the necessary steps to file on TurboTax (at no, or very little cost to me), why would anyone then pay a firm $350 to file on his/her behalf? That is not a financially sound decision, and it was the CPA's job to convey that. He did not do so. In fact, he did the opposite. I would never advise one of my clients to make a decision that was not financially sound, especially when it was readily and obviously apparent to me. That is irresponsible and a very poor business practice. Not that it matters to such a large firm, but my husband and I will not return to O'Connor Maloney for services again and I will certainly not recommend this firm, either. They wasted no time depositing $350 of my hard-earned money without even an acknowledgement of the concerns that I voiced in my letter to them. They clearly do not have their clients' best interests in mind.
