I had a very good tax-preparation experience with Debra Simmons. I was a new customer this year,…read morehaving my 2015 taxes done by her. Things happened very promptly, and as promised. I had a fairly complicated tax situation this year, and Debra spent time on the phone with me and we communicated through email getting things squared away and helping me get prepared and organized. She spent time making sure I understood my situation and how she planned to file my return. She had good follow-up and answers questions promptly via email. If you are a person who prefers a face to face meeting with your tax preparer, Debra may not be your person. I never met her in person, and worked with her through email, telephone, and by dropping off and picking up paperwork at her mailbox location. She did things promptly and efficiently, and I got a favorable result. I would recommend her if you're OK with dropping off forms and working without face-to-face contact.

I first worked with Nick when my father's trust needed revamping. He was going into hospice so I…read moreneeded things done ASAP and Nick and his team were able to get things done in time. 4 years later, after learning a lot of intricacies that surfaced while updating my father's trust (like how my disabled sister would be better off having a Special Needs Trust created for her to receive her inheritance), I decided to update my own personal trust that I created with another attorney a decade ago. What I appreciated most about Nick Montalto, is that he's detailed in his explanation but not in a way that the average layman wouldn't understand it. I also appreciate that even though he's a practicing attorney, he was also a CPA at one time which means he has a broader understanding of the tax implication that most estate attorneys do not necessarily have. His making your Advanced Healthcare Directives available in a portable USB drive or "credit card" drive to carry with you at all times is a proactive and potentially life-saving measure that most attorneys don't even think of. Sandy, his paralegal is also great in assisting with the less than complex questions for those times Nick isn't available. I will continue to recommend Nick and his team to anyone who wants superlative customer service and the confidence that their estate planning is in competent and capable hands. Thank you again Nick & Sandy for all your assistance all these years.

I promptly sent over our last two years of tax returns, as requested by the assistant, believing they would be reviewed ahead of our appointment. ​Based on the many good reviews on Yelp, I definitely expected a great experience and trusted that the $275 consultation fee would be money well spent. ​We were required to pay a non-refundable $275 consultation fee for a one-hour slot before the meeting even started. ​About 25 minutes into the consultation, after receiving only general, easily-Googled answers ("it should be better if you get married almost surely"), I asked for specific calculations. The accountant revealed he hadn't reviewed any of the documents I had sent. ​I was stunned. The entire point of sending two years of tax returns and paying a high up-front fee was for him to be prepared to address my specific financial situation. When I pressed for the specific calculations I needed, he quoted an additional cost of nearly $300 per hour just to review the questions and returns--work that I had already paid for him to do in the first place. ​The "consultation" ended after 30 minutes, feeling like a complete waste of time. I left feeling utterly scammed out of the $275 consultation fee since no preparatory work was done and I received zero specific, actionable financial advice. ​While I appreciate they got me in the same day, I would have much rather waited for an appointment with an accountant who actually took the time to review the materials provided. I wouldn't recommend them and definitely won't be returning.

He walked me through my options and what each one would mean for my taxes, so I could make the decision with my eyes open. It was honest, practical guidance from someone who cared about my overall financial picture, not just that year's return. Since then, I have never needed to look for another person for handling my taxes. One year I was running late getting my documents together and hadn't said a word to him about it. Without me even asking, he filed an extension on my behalf and then let me know it was handled. I didn't have to scramble or panic, he just took care of it. He's diligent about every detail, and he explains things in plain English. He's also very responsive, answering emails and calls quickly even in the thick of tax season. Every year he finds deductions and credits I would have missed, so my refund is always as high as it can be. What really sets him apart is the personal touch. He remembers my situation from year to year and genuinely looks out for me, so I never feel like just another file on his desk. The peace of mind I have knowing my tax filings are in safe hands is a value that cannot be estimated. Five stars, easily. Five stars, easily.
