PLEASE DO YOUR OWN SIMPLE VERIFICATION BEFORE YOU PAY THIS FIRM FOR VA AID & ATTENDANCE…read moreBENEFITS!!!! I will try to shorten this review in hopes that every would-be client reads this and has a much better experience than my family did. We were referred to Burgos & Brein to help obtain VA A&A Spousal Benefits for my elderly mother. My sister and I had our initial Zoom with Gaberial Burgos back in Jan 2024 to go over the items on the check list and see if Mom qualified. Gaberial spent an enormous amount of time with GREAT detail on what actions needed to take place in order for Mom to qualify and still stay in her home and receive $1500 a month. In depth instructions were given on how to move money from her account to pay myself, make sure everything is kept separate in case of an audit, on and on......you get the instructions..wink- wink). He continued through the checklist and said mom would definitely qualify. "Our fee is $2000, and we will walk you through the process." After a family discussion we felt that we would have been deceitful and dishonest pursuing this aid, as we felt that Mom did not meet the criteria at this time and we would reach back out when the time came to file. FAST FORWARD TO APRIL 2025...... Mom has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease and is in need of Memory Care. I reached back out to Gaberial and did another Zoom on 4/9/25. (A year and 4 months later). He again assured me that Mom was a qualifying recipient, and I paid him nearly $2000. He said a case manager would contact me and go over the paperwork via Zoom. 3 days later on 4/11/25 Grace and I had a Zoom call, and she discussed all the paperwork that needed to be submitted. We DID NOT get halfway through the list when she asked if Mom had ever been remarried. I answered yes and she immediately said I'm sorry, but she does NOT qualify. I was dumbfounded that this very important part of the initial checklist was NEVER asked nor discussed while I listened to Gaberial's lengthy requirements on 2 DIFFERENT Zoom calls. Had I spent 15 minutes researching the 4 M's of receiving A&A spousal benefits I would have known that Mom did not meet those requirements. That was a very expensive mistake. My Dad died in the line of Duty in 1981 leaving 4 kids under the age of 6. My mom remarried nearly 15 years later for a short time. This disqualified her and we COMPLETLEY understand that. Case closed!! Yet, Gaberial skipped over this required information twice! 3 days after paying nearly $2000 dollars and a heated exchange with Gaberial who did not want to admit any wrongdoing and only wanted to offer $1000 refund, we are more than disappointed with this firm. No refund was issued at all. We hope this review will help others. We will be filling additional complaints with appropriate parties as well to save another family from losing money that is much needed during this very sad chapter of life. PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION BEFORE YOU PAY THIS FIRM FOR ANYTHING!

The best! If you want to protect your family assets, and not run out of money give them a call.read more

Let me say that I am not a tax expert nor do I care to be. I seeked out the help of Pauline and her team for assistance with my company in early stages of growth. From the moment I walked in, I was spoken to as if my business was not appreciated. They are absolutely not on your "side" and it is more a transaction for them more than anything. I needed help understanding some of the basic concepts regarding tax structure for my business, and Pauline failed to explain, and inform me in an appropriate manner. To add to this horrible customer experience, in times of need, specifically during covid pandemic tax issues, they were not by my side. I can go on and on. But I'm not going to because you should save yourself the headache and take your business to an accountant that will appreciate your business, guide you no matter where you are, and be on YOUR team. We are all business owners, and if I treated my customers the way Pauline and her team did, I'd go out of business. I gave this accounting firm over $1,000 of my hard earned money as a small business owner and regret every penny.

It was hard to find a place with reasonable prices that had availability for the 2020 tax year. Enter Eva. I had a great experience working with her virtually- everything other than the initial phone call was done by e-mail and her secure portal. She walked me through the whole process and went back and forth several times to show different options I had and what the difference was monetarily. She took a great deal of time to go through tons of documents for us, and got everything e-filed quickly and we received our refund via direct deposit pretty quickly. So overall, I highly recommend Eva for your tax and other accounting services including business taxes.
