Yes, this is long, but business owners deserve a clear warning…read more I've owned a business for over 30 years, and this has been the most disorganized accounting firm I've ever worked with. This firm handled my personal and business taxes for three years. Every single year, I received notices from the IRS and the Department of Revenue stating that my returns were filed incorrectly. Communication was another constant problem. Nearly every scheduled meeting was canceled due to an "emergency." This happened year after year. The first year, after I emailed all required documents, I was invoiced to review and respond to IRS and State of Oregon notices caused by their own mistakes. Even after paying for their review, the issue was not resolved, and I am now making monthly payments for taxes that should have been handled correctly from the start. Document management was equally troubling. After sending complete records by email, I was repeatedly told they could not locate them, as if they had never been received. Most recently, I learned that in 2023 the CPA failed to check the box to file an extension for my returns. As a result, I am now responsible for paying the penalty for their oversight. I gave this firm three years, hoping things would improve. They did not. I have since switched to a new CPA. Other entrepreneurs should think carefully before trusting this firm with their livelihood.

Daveed and his team at Anvil Tax have been helping my company with taxes since 2015. As a small…read morebusiness owner with a rapidly growing company, I was unsure of how to handle the different taxes for operating in multiple states. Daveed's team helps me monitor my finances monthly, and their expertise has been invaluable. Daveed is extremely knowledgeable and helpful in many areas of my business, including succession planning strategies. When I first came to him, I had numerous letters from the state and IRS that I didn't know how to handle. I was unsure, confused, and completely out of my element. Dealing with taxes and finances was nerve-wracking, but now, I am confident in my finances and the direction we are headed after our monthly meetings. Since Daveed is an ex-IRS auditor, he knows exactly how to protect your business in an honest and professional way. If you want your taxes done right by someone who is very informed and knowledgeable, this is your team. It's easy as a small business owner to avoid and overlook tax letters, but although Daveed and his team are extremely helpful and give you the advice to follow, it is your duty as the business owner to handle your responsibilities. Anyone who has left a poor review for Daveed likely did not follow the advice given, because my business has grown and become more protected over the years by following their advice. There are so many moving pieces when it comes to running a business, and having Daveed and his team deeply involved in my financial decisions brings me peace of mind. I am so grateful for their team and wouldn't take my business anywhere else. They assist me with taxes, bookkeeping, and financial analysis and planning. If you're looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable finance team, I highly recommend Anvil Tax!

Yvonne responded quickly, and provided us with very helpful information that was necessary to file his taxes accurately. Yvonne was kind and said that while she'd like to prepare his taxes, the fee probably wouldn't justify the effort since he had already completed 90% of the work himself and all he needed to know was if he is allowed to claim his wife as a dependent for the whole year even though she passed away in February. I'm grateful for business owners like Yvonne who provide valuable services, but not at the expense of someone who just needs a simple question answered. Thank you Yvonne for your kindness during a very difficult time for our family!! I'm hoping that this review helps bring you many paying clients, and my brother will also be switching his business tax prep to you should anything change with his current preparer.

TLDR: Kershaw & Associates cost us just over $14,000 in missed deductions, gave bad advice on…read moreretirement & HSA contributions, took 4 months to complete our return, and had terrible communication throughout. We're in our 30's, have a family, have had the same basic tax situation for 6 years, and are middle income earners- we don't need a genius CPA but we were hoping to build a relationship with a firm who we could grow with and become smarter about our financial picture. Kershaw is NOT it. We used them for the past 4 years, and their service has gotten worse and worse as the firm transferred ownership. In 2016 they missed a HSA deduction- when I found the miss (and did the paperwork myself to amend it) we came out with an extra $2,100 in refunds THAT THEY MISSED. So I asked them to file the amendment with our 2017 taxes and Dawn wanted to charge us $300 to file it....for paperwork that I did myself, on a deduction that they missed. I should have just stopped there, but it was already February 2018 and taxes were due- so we moved ahead with engaging them for another year. During which they moved offices in the middle of tax season (why would they do that?) and as I was eager to get an answer on an IRA contribution we wanted to make before the April 18th deadline I followed up asking for her advice and Dawn kept saying she'd have it by week end or that she'd temporarily misplaced our paperwork. Dawn did eventually get us an answer just before the deadline, telling us not to make a contribution for that year. So we followed her advice and did not. April 18th came and passed, and after chasing her for another few weeks, she told us she had filed for an extension for our taxes- but did not provide an ETA, finally on JUNE 26th we got an email from Cindy that they were ready. I'd also like to note that not once did she request missing information from us- and our new accountant said we were very organized so our documents/info wasn't to blame for the extra time needed here. When I went in for the tax appointment, Dawn lectured me that we should have made an IRA contribution- so I showed her her own email where she told us not to, for which she said she was mistaken- but since it was June there was no way to fix it. She then went on to explain how "generous" she was by not charging additional for the amended return (which was only needed because of their mistake)...and that their fee had gone up by $100. She provided no credit for the extended time, terrible communication, or bad advice that caused us to miss a retirement contribution. The reason I'm writing this review now is because we finally pulled our head out of the sand this year and choose a new accountant. Who at our first 1-hour meeting, pointed out another $7,000 in deductions that Dawn missed. Save yourself time and money and stay far, far away from this firm.

I cannot speak for all the staff, maybe most of them are great, but if you want informative, coherent information, stay away from Kevin. I felt a little greasier after having left his office. Maybe it was the privilege of watching him clean up that thing he called lunch after I entered. Or the way he treated the nice front desk lady with dismissive spite, as if she forgot to buy his favorite creamer for the break room. But it was mostly the way he avoided my pointed questions by answering just about anything else other than what I was asking. Want to pay over $100 for an 'educational' meeting where you come out just a little bit stupider? I found just the place. Somehow, every time I asked a question, he circled back around to the same point regarding state taxes. Okay, cool, calm down, Rob.

I carried my remaining brain cells out of there and never returned.

For the past two years, Matt's been doing our taxes, and I'm so happy with his approach. It's efficient, friendly, and streamlined. I always know where I stand -- how long it's going to take, what's involved, what I need to do -- up front. He does his research, too! He knows the recent changes to the laws and how that will affect our taxes. And, as a solo business owner, I can't tell you what a relief that is! He also keeps us posted throughout the process and always lets us know the ballpark figure for the cost, which is quite reasonable. The main thing I can say about Matt is that you can trust him to do your taxes right. Need I say more? ;)
