We have had Schram do our taxes, both personal and business, for a number of years. This year, they…read moretold us that the person who usually does our taxes was not available. It took quite some time for the very rude receptionist to tell us that she no longer worked there. We were assured that the new person would take care of things, just like always. Except, we could never get ahold of her and we couldn't schedule a meeting until after tax day. When we finally got to meet her, she had no idea why we were there, and was not at all familiar with our return. We will be taking our business elsewhere.

Our tax preparer retired and sent his clients to Schram and Associates…read more We had them prepare our taxes for 2 years. The second year for the same amount of billable hours they increased their tax prep fee 145%, which was very concerning for us. We asked for a review and that they would please find a way to lessen the fee. Their response was basically "no", " Your increased fee is not due to increased billable hours; it is due to correctly charging for the hours incurred by our firm". Also, after filing an extension for us, we had our information to them by early June and it took until early September for them to prepare our taxes. We checked in with them multiple times to check in on the progress of our return. We would not recommend them based on the price and their lack of expediency.

I've been doing my own taxes for over 30 years. It's a pretty comprehensive return with lots of…read moreschedules, and I've been doing fine with it until my son started working last year, we started contributing to an IRA and 401k for him, college, etc. For the first time in 30+ years, there was a "new thing" to account for. Due to a forced 401k distribution/rollover/tax withholding, etc, I was a little unsure about how to handle it. I had an idea through research on the internet (and multiple LLM conversations), but I wanted to talk to a CPA or Tax person to confirm. I sent out a bunch of requests on Yelp to get quotes for a conversation that I estimated would take no more than 15-30 minutes just to make sure my understanding is correct. I got a bunch of replies ranging from $100-$385. Somebody even said I needed to complete an engagement letter to have the conversation! APEX sent me a message telling me how to address my tax issue with filings and what my expected outcome should be depending on whether or not my son owes taxes. He literally said, "You should be able to use Turbo tax to handle...if you have trouble use their support or take it to H&R Block...You don't need a CPA..." No quote. Just good and clear advice on what to do. I currently do not need any other accounting/tax assistance, but if I did, I would go to Apex -- not because they are "any more right" than any other CPA firm, but because they clearly value *YOUR* time and money -- not just theirs. I like to do business with good human beings who, to some degree, treat business like it's part of a community and not just a capitalist market. Recognizing that my need "wasn't a big deal" for their level of expertise and taking a few minutes to type out a solution with no request for compensation speaks more volumes about the business than people who have paid for the service, in my mind. If they can be this complete in answers for a person who isn't paying them a dime during the time of year when they are most busy and can treat this period like a "cash cow" and bill for every minute, then how complete, thorough and diligent do you think they will be for a paying client? At some point, I want to do more real estate investing -- I read in other reviews that Apex also has experience in this space. I will call upon them for sure if I ever need assistance. If you need financial solutions assistance, I highly recommend that you give Apex Tax and Financial Solutions a shot at your business.

Don't! Don't! Don't! Must read entire review!! This guy is a straight up liar, procrastinator,…read morescam artist.. please for the life of you guys.. use my experience with this horrific company and just don't. Whatever his reasoning is below is a sham. He should be embarrassed.. If I can leave a zero I would. I was in dire need of an accountant. I had not completed my returns in a few years after splitting up from my spouse. Finally I reached out to Christian for assistance. I selected him because I wanted to give him some help on Yelp for being a small business owner who had hardly any ratings. He had this speech impediment that struck at my heart strings and I just wanted to give him a chance. Good God has it been a terrible experience since then. I finally got to a point where I am able to purchase a house and the ONLY thing at this point was my tax returns. I work in sales so it takes a while to get to a point where you make enough in commissions that you can show a profit to be able to buy a house. Anyway, it took him over TWO YEARS to do simple tax returns. TWO YEARS! At this point, I'm invested in this foolishness. I just wanted this to be done. During this course, of course, interest rates gone up A LOT!!! Anytime I asked him to fix anything it would take a month to get them back. I think he does that so he can scan us out of money pretending that he was working soooo hard on these files. The $1440 was already inputted into the QuickBooks supposedly.. smh.. the more I think about this, the more I get upset because of his shady practices. It's unbelievable. He took me on for a ride, didn't deliver, took my money, had the lamest excuses why he could not do anything on time or a timely fashion. Shame in him! The supposedly e-filed them. He never once checked to see if the IRS accepted the forms. He assumed that it was accepted but two bounced back. He charged me $1440 for the returns. Which I paid. A couple of months later, I received a crazy high IRS bill when it was supposed to be nothing, I mean this bill is so high, it is the cost of a brand new car. I called Christian and we stayed had to call the IRS.. that was less than one hour. In this call, we found out two of the returns bounced back. To his surprise, from his lack of work, I needed to snail mail my return, and he needed to take my ex spouse off one of them. I saw him play with the numbers on a zoom call adding and removing my ex-spouse in under five minutes. I by is he trying to charge me about her $1500 for all this. So for $1440 you do four tax returns and then now $1500 for a quick one hour phone call and simple removal of a person?? The numbers aren't adding up. It's obvious at this point, he doesn't care about this (me) client. He's slow played me for two darn years and still hasn't gotten it correct. I texted him about how ridiculous this was and how shady his business practice is and you know what he did?? He put his wife on the phone and she started talking mad sh*t to me. He literally sicked his wife on me. She had the audacity to tell me I should have done my taxes. Uhm hello, that why I hired you guys. Not to waste two years of my life hoping this joker would do his job only to take me for my money and never ever delivering on his end. During the two years whenever I asked for him to call me or the status of my returns, he always had an excuse either he was sick, his wife was sick, his kids were sick, or back all over again, or in the hospital or he's in school, or the funny excuse was he was at his real job. I said real job?? I thought he was an accountant?? His wife said he works somewhere as an accountant. He doesn't have his own practice. So what has he been doing these past two years?? Pretending to be his own company?? It doesn't make any sense.. I still don't have my missing two tax returns and he g wants to charge me an extra amount for work he's already completed. People if you are reading this... don't use him. I literally wasted two years. I paid him already for nothing essentially. I have to find a new accountant and pay them to do the work he supposedly did already. So I'm paying double either way but I will not pay THIS man twice who obviously sat on my returns for two years. If I went along with him, I'd be eating probably another two more years. This is ridiculous!!!!
