We obtained them as our CPA for Individual with S.Corp Partnership. I would say obtained services but I did all the tax prep, data entry and better ways to max deductions, still unsure what services they provided that cost $1300.00, which I requested a copy of the invoice that I've yet to receive. They made a HUGE error on our estimated tax payments for 2022 which has resulted in us owing $30k for 2022, along with multiple accounting errors/discrepancies on the 2021 filed return. I emailed them the specific amount to use to formulate the 2022 estimated payments for distribution income. Instead, Folkers used their own report and based it off "2021 statutory requires" which only reflected 3 months worth of distributions. There is more that 3 months in a year and they didn't catch this error prior to filing and shockingly this was reviewed by 2 different associates. I'm not a CPA but since they were again having me do the tax prep that is how I found their error. I understand mistakes happen. I wanted to work on a solution, better understand how this error happened and ways to prevent future errors. I emailed them to confirm that what I found was indeed an error on their end as I provided the email I sent telling them the monthly distribution amount to use for 2022 estimated tax payment. After a couple hrs, I received a call from R.M. asking for some additional information (I didn't have access to or wasn't ready- K1) to see if there were solutions to lower the $30k owed. Our conversation started to take a turn as I was wanting to discuss how they missed this, why wasn't it questioned/evaluated/executed correctly. I only expressed concern in my tune during this conversation and explained I'm not angry, mad, I just want to understand. R.M responded "I don't think we can meet your expectations" then proceeds to tell me "the conversation is done" "I have other clients I need to get to" even after hearing that I still tried to reschedule our call for a day he is available and he absolutely refused. This validates everything I said in my opening statement. Folkers & Associates has unethically walked away using "unable to meet our expectations" as their reason and knowingly left us in the middle of tax season with a HUGE TAX DEBT we originally expressed and wanted to prevent when we hired them!

Margaret talked us from our proverbial cliff, then painstakingly went through our entire paper trail for 2012 with a fine-toothed comb. She insisted that we not be at the audit (no argument there) while she went to bat for us. Margaret saved us thousands of dollars on our audit, and many hours of stress. I've learned the hard way the importance of an honest CPA that really knows what they're doing.
