Doing your company taxes yourself may save you money at first, but the IRS implications later on really add up. I learned the hard way to leave the important accounting up to the professionals. Heath explains things very well and not only did a fantastic job on our company's taxes, but also made me understand how to improve our accounting system. I remember my first consultation with Heath and his team in 2015. I explained my company's situation, and they did not even charge me for their time because they said I could wait till the following year to use their services. I appreciated the honesty, and was so happy that they did not try to nickle and dime me, which I would have totally fallen for. Thank you for being a great business and part of the Pacific Beach community!

He seemed very "scammy" overall and after reading the other reviews I know that I am not alone in my experience. Please keep sharing these experiences because word is bound to spread hopefully. He has a younger assistant that I thought was his daughter... it was his girlfriend. Opps. So that he cannot say I was not a real potential client, I use a different name on here so he and other I badly review cannot attack me personally.

I've been coming to Berry at The Tax Service for almost 20 years now--back when I was working…read moreretail and my taxes were pretty straightforward. As life got more complex and I started my own business, my returns became a lot more involved, but Berry has always been right there, ready to adapt and grow with me. Now, heading into my 18th year in business, I can honestly say Berry has been one of the most consistent and reliable professionals I've worked with. He's knowledgeable, approachable, and makes even the most complicated parts of tax season feel manageable. If you want someone who really knows his stuff, who takes the time to understand your situation, and who's in it for the long haul with his clients--Berry is the guy. Highly recommend!

The AI agents were horrible, kept sending me through the same loop, and ultimately I gave up and left a 3*. After their prompt response by a real person to set up an appointment, I decided to take down my review to potentially leave a better one if things went well. I was scheduled for an appointment about a week out, and at the time of the appointment, I called the number and received another virtual assistant (not AI to my knowledge), who told me that the person I had the appointment with was on another call. I left my number and was never contacted, until about 3 weeks later, by email calendar invite, telling me that another appointment had been set up in another week or two. I already got my issues handled by another CPA and will be working with that other firm in the future. I hope this firm here gets their virtuals and artificials straightened out soon

I contacted Brian through Yelp a couple weeks ago and made it VERY clear from the beginning I was…read morelooking for a quote for tax filing/preparation only for this year. My initial message: "Hi Brian, I am just looking for a quote for 2023 tax filing, not to actually start it yet. We will be needing help on a couple of tax situations this year." His exact response: "Understood. I will provide a quote for 2023 during our call. I just sent the questionnaire." He then emailed me the questionnaire; I put I was interested in "Individual taxes" and sent it back to him, I NEVER put I was interested in Investment management or any other kind of financial services. So he knew this whole time I only wanted tax preparation. He still proceeded to call me today and asked a few questions related to our tax situation. Then at the end of the call he asked if I was looking for someone to manage our investments, I said not at this point...we are only looking for tax preparation now. His tone completely changed and he abruptly told me in a condescending manner we are not a good fit because they are saturated with tax preparation clients and he's looking for clients who want investment management. I was pretty shocked at the change in his tone and his annoyance once I told him I didn't need someone to manage our investments. Again, I made it VERY clear from the start I was looking for tax preparation services only from my initial message AND the questionnaire he had me fill out. I honestly don't know why he still called and was rude when he knew he couldn't take on any more clients who only wanted tax filing.
