Listen, I hate taxes more than anything, and I go through this every year. It's a long story, but…read morethe guy who did my taxes for years since moving back isn't doing them this year so my mom and I had to find a new person to do it. The gentleman (Alan) who does the taxes here bases his prices off how complicated they are. He has an MBA from Harvard and is super cool to deal with, along with being reasonably competitive with his pricing compared to other accountants. My mom and I went together and he took us at 7PM on a Friday night. He had mine done (the easier of the two) in 15 minutes and my moms (who's more complicated) in about 30 minutes. We both sat with him separately to go through each item and things went smoothly. We both paid by check, as I don't believe he takes any other form of payment. You can ask, but that's what it is. Overall, he filed it electronically and he said I should get my refund in about two weeks. For me, I spent about $225 for everything, and my mom's was $390. Most places we called were a flat fee of $400 to $450, so this pricing is fabulous compared to what's out there. Alan's located in downtown Berkley and I do recommend him!

UPDATE: January 27, 2025 - Being 78 years old and wanting to get records of my personal income tax,…read moreI called this place today to download my complete tax records on my PIN drive to transfer to another tax agent. I was told by, I assume, the owner of Downriver Incomtax that ALL of my tax records were deleted. I believe deleting my tax records from their files is illegal since they must keep records for the IRS for possible auditing. I believe any reputable company would keep tax records for at least 10 years. Is something illegal happening that I am not aware of? Did this company cook their books to avoid paying taxes on my payments over the years? Those are questions that popped up in my mind. Anyone in their right mind may have the same thoughts, along with the IRS. My right is to post my beliefs without being condemned and taken to court. This guy said that he talked to an attorney. I believe that he wouldn't have to talk to an attorney if he did nothing wrong. The beliefs are simply beliefs every American is entitled to. The following was posted on Aug. 20, 2024: Retired with fixed income. DON'T WALK AWAY. RUN AWAY. If I could give minus five stars, I would. I wanted to enter tax-deductible info in my 2022 and 2023 personal income tax DURING THE 2022 & 2023 YEARS, but this company failed miserably. This company failed to enter this info, causing a loss of A RETURN FOR over $300. I notified them after I realized THEIR mistake and asked for a revision to be filed at their expense since it was THEIR MISTAKE. They said I would have to pay $75 each year to file the revision. Are they sick? It was their mistake. They received the info on time during the respective years with their cocky attitude. IT IS EASY FOR THEM TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A RETIRED 77-YEAR-OLD.

I found an ad from Robert Babut on Craigslist.I dropped off my Taxes (2012-2014) around April 1,…read more2015.I asked him to just tweak my State 2012,first.It was already completed.I made my first call to Robert on May 17, 2015, a 10:02 p.m., asking him if he was done with the 2012. He never answered I called him additional times (July 14, 29).I then called his Partner(at another number) asking him to tell Robert to please call me (July 14,29). I left the following text message: "I have been trying 2 get my taxes either started, completed or just pick them up done or not.Would U PLEASE let Robert know.I REALLY NEED MY TAXES! HE HAS HAD THEM SINCE APRIL.THANK U SO MUCH! PLEASE,PLEASE." This was at 9:25a.m. His Partner called me back and Robert did call me (I believe) giving me all kinds of excuses, but said he was working on them. After many, many other calls (asking him if he knew how to do MY taxes, did he lose my taxes, what's going on) and attempts( could I be of some assistance, when can we meet, etc., I have all of the text messages I sent to Robert in August, etc. (it is NOW September), I demanded that Robert just give me my taxes--COMPLETED OR NOT! Robert kept saying HOW BAD HE FELT (tons of excuses concerning his health (his feet or legs) or else he had to WORK his OTHER job, or else he was going out of town.I don't remember exactly what happened, but Robert FINALLY ADMITTED THAT HE HAD LOST MY TAX FILES and finally found them (around Sept 2-I have a text from him). He did say he would do them, for less than $200.00 (because he felt so bad about the length of time), but I TOLD ROBERT that I just wanted them in MY possession BEFORE he went out of town (again, this is around Sept. 10). I could always come back AND WE, HE AND I WOULD JUST SIT DOWN And at least complete the 2012, in 2-6 hours. He said to call him after he came back from his trip to visit his elderly aunt. Well, because of my financial situation, I did call Robert back on Thurs.,Oct.15 12:52pm: "Hi Robert, I am finishing my classes in about 8 days. Would U B interested N trying taxes again? Not offended if answer is no. Let me know asap.", I texted him again on Thur.,Nov 5, 8:14 a.m., Sorry to not have heard back from you Robert.I did hear from the IRS and told them what happened.They are sending me papers to file a complaint if I wanted. Just wanted you to know." Robert agreed to still do them (He sent me the following text on Nov. 5, 9:02 a.m., "Hi jo,when I got your first text I was on the road and forgot to respond. If you want to get together and look everything over let me know.". I texted him back the same day asking him if Tuesday, next week was ok. I texted him again on Wed, Nov 11 at 9:50 about getting them done before Jan. 15, 2016 and before the upcoming Holidays(remember, he was never available or had excuses why we couldn't meet).Robert, texted me on Wed.Nov 11, at 9:52 a.m., "I will check my schedule.Next week should be ok. I will be going away thanksgiving week." I texted him back on Wed., Nov. 11 at 11:41 a.m., "I kinda thought that Robert. So let' do this! PLEASE. I will have my brother drop me off. Please have the dogs (somewhere else)".On Nov.12 at 8:15 a.m. Robert texted me saying, "How about next Thursday in the afternoon?" On Nov.12,at 8:17 a.m, I texted the following, "Yes, but I would like to complete everything at 1 siting". On Monday, Nov.16, at 2:12 p.m., Robert Babut texted me the following, Jo, I hate to be the bearer of bad new, but I am flying out to Seattle on Wednesday night for a hopefully lucrative job interview.This just came in this morning." I texted Robert the same day at 2:25 p.m., the following, "WOW! REALLY?THIS IS HOW U R GOING TO TREAT ME? Robert U either can't or don't know how to do my particuliar taxes. OR U just don't want to. U'd think I would get the "hint" by now, but I am a Business person also and I HAVE NEVER TREATED ANY1 EVEN PEOPLE WHO HATE ME OR MY RACE THIS WAY. i just wished U would have told me in April. Why can't U do them when U come back? All of this drama and waiting. This has been horrible? Well, it is what it is, Isn't it?" This is Robert Babut's Response Text, "Jo, I would have gladly met with you when I returned. You were the one who wanted them done this week. I did not plan on flying out to the west coast this week. Plus, next week I am going to New York to spend the holidays with my 88 year aunt. I am offended that you mentioned race. One thing for certain is that I am NOT a racist.At this point in time I think it is best that we both move on.Good luck."I texted him back, but he blocked me.I took my taxes to be completed by Robert Babut and the above was my experience with him. I met him in April of 2015 and it is now November 17, 2015. He knew my funds were limited and thus THAT IS THE ONLY REASON I PUT UP WITH HIM. Although, I didn't spend any money, I lost so much more.
