DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY/ACCOUNTANT firm AS YOUR TAX ACCOUNTANT. I REPEAT DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY…read more YOU WILL REGRET IT. MAYBE HE IS GETTING TOO OLD AND HE SHOULD HIGHLY CONSIDER RETIRING. HE CAN NO LONGER DEAL WITH A HEAVY WORK LOAD. I am so upset i don't even know where to begin. We hired this company back in 2017. They were on point and helpful in the beginning with filing our taxes and giving good advice. But fast forward to 2021 and 2022. He filed our taxes extremely late and missed tax deadlines for both years, causing us to get hit with major fines for late filings. He was fully aware of us purchasing an investment property and needed additional loans to complete the project. We informed him that our tax returns needed to be completed for the year 2022 in order to get qualified for the loan. It's bad enough he waited all the way until August to be ready to file our taxes, he requested our information in August.. We sent the information to him to file in August 2023, and he filed extension in October of 2023, and still missed both extensions. 1 for our personal tax returns, and 2 for business tax returns. In OCTOBER OF 2023, We applied more pressure, explaining to him if our taxes are not filed, we will have to hire another accountant. He basically f**KED us by filing a ZERO tax return on both our personal and business tax returns, he E-filed the returns at that, (SMH). At this time we were unaware what happened, and didn't know how hard it would be to E-file our taxes, after the filing of the zero tax returns. Until he told us to Hire another account. So we did just that, We hired a highly professional accounting firm. Who helped with all of our needs in 3 days. As our new accountant goes to file our taxes. Our tax returns for both business and personal tax returns were returned from the IRS. Stating that the taxes were already E-filed. THIS WAS A BIG PROBLEM FOR US, Because the bank needed our filed returns with all the numbers and income that we received. The bank actually pulls IRS Tax transcripts to verify the tax returns and income. Now we have to wait 4 to 6 months for the 1040x amendment tax returns to be updated by the IRS ON the tax transcripts, PREVENTING us from not being able to secure the loan needed to COMPLETE our investment home project. (SMH.) We begged this man everyday since August to please file our tax returns. He never did. I had to contact my bank recently to reverse a payment I made to him in August due to services never rendered. I think Bruce needs to hang it up and retire. leave the accounting and tax game to the young people. It's time to travel with your wife and sip Margaritas on a beach somewhere. This game is no longer yours my friend. It pains me to have to make a comment like this online. But you have causes us pain and disappointment. and i want you to know it was me. hopefully this will be a lesson learned and for others to be aware of you. But on a humble note thank you for the services you did provide over the years for us. But these last 2 years I'm sorry to say that the experience we had has not been a pleasant one. Wish you all the best.

I had a merchant dispute with a travel agency that i booked a vacation with. After I paid the trip…read morein full the company changed the dates and refused to refund me my money. I put in a dispute with my credit card company and unfortunately, I lost the dispute. The credit card company said that because i agreed to a nonrefundable trip, I could not get my money back. I knew that this was illegal business practices as the merchant broke the contract then refused to refund me. I contacted Ronald Cook law firm for help. His assistant advised me to send him an email with all details of the case. I sent the email as instructed by his assistant before I spoke to Mr Cook. His office scheduled a call to have a conversation with Mr Cook. I thought that we were going to go over the details of the case based on my email. Before we even talked Mr cook had drafted me a Demand Letter for Refund with all the details from my email. We then spoke on the phone about the letter, and he sent and told me what to do. He said to send the letter to the merchant and the credit card company. The one thing that stood out to me was when he told me "DONT GIVE UP, you have to FIGHT". He gave me confidence I needed and felt he had my back. We only talked on the phone for maybe 30 mins and I left the phone call feeling so good about having the tools to get me results. I followed Mr Cooks instructions and waited. Within 15 days the credit card company re-investigated the dispute and they refunded me all the money. Without that Demand Letter that he drafted for me I would not have had the success in getting my funds back. I can't thank Mr. Cook enough for being so efficient and getting me the results I needed without dragging the situation out. Just be patient, listen and you will Win. He will be my go to now if i ever need legal intervention for anything in the future. Thank so much Mr Cook.
