I forgot how long I've been going to Mel's I remember when they were in Aurora. Looking back I wish…read moreI had known about them sooner. Be patient with them it's worth it.

I was not very happy with my first experience with Mel's Business services. The first time they…read morehad them, there were many errors on them. I ended up bringing them back and they amended it. And then turns out I received a letter from the IRS where there were still more errors. I will be looking to go somewhere else next year. I am disappointed in this as the reviews were great and I didn't expect to have so many issues. I will also add that the time frame provided was not met either.

I've been with them over a decade. It was a messy start because I couldn't get out of the…read moremicromanaging aspect and was worried about everything. I calmed down after a few years and trust them to do things correctly. I moved states and they still handle my personal and business records. If I have questions they might take a bit to get back to me or after a reminder but they were always kind to me.

My husband and I decided to take a leap and chose Obbligato for our tax preparation this year. We…read morewill never go anywhere else after this year!! They were beyond professional and took the time to make sure everything was resolved from our previous firm we used. They really offer quality service. It has been quite some time since working with people that go above and beyond to make sure their clients are taken care of. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an accounting firm in the far west suburbs!!!

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE! What was once a respected institution has been reduced to a complete joke…read more Note, they are now also going by Block Associates, while also still using the Johnson/Harkness/Park name and clout. We had been clients here for 18 years, and before that our families had been there for decades. HR Block bought them out and turned the place upside down and fired everyone who had been there long-term. Then they had no one to complete mountains of filings. Our return was given to them in March- it is now SEPTEMBER and we just got it back, after being initially told "there may be a short 2-3 week extension". At no point did we receive any communication, other than a short form letter saying some of the long time associates were no longer with the firm, conveniently leaving out that they were let go by the firm. We waited months for a call, left messages that were never returned, and finally when someone answered the phone, they sounded about 16 years old with absolutely zero knowledge of our file. I personally had to go in an demand a printed copy of our federal tax extension because they couldn't tell me over the phone that the extension was given, and frankly I didn't trust they had even applied for one. Finally when our return was ready (again, in SEPTEMBER after months of radio silence), they had the audacity to ask how we'd be paying. The worst part was at no point did we receive any sort of apology. They have absolutely no customer service whatsoever. Messages left with no call back, no in person apology or reassurance when I did go in, nothing when I finally picked up. They sure want the long-time client base, but have no interest in communication or customer service. Sad, my grandfather would be irate at what the company his neighbor started has become.

Checked in every month and was told various excuses each time. Finally on 6/22/2026 I was told that my Taxes would be completed by that Friday. I never received a call that Friday or the following week. I picked up my unfinished Tax returns on 7/06/2026 because I obviously don't want people who lie to me doing my Taxes. Ed had been doing my Taxes for more than decade on time every time. Then they let him go and the above happened. I'll never use them again. People who LIE should not be doing your Taxes.
