I rarely write reviews. When I do, it's because of truly stellar service…read more My husband and I came to Michael Raff after 3 other accounting firms failed to help us solve a costly error made by the IRS and a previous accountant. The issue had been lingering since 2020 (2019 tax year). We tried numerous CPA firms and tax accountants. A few claimed they could help ultimately at significant cost to us, many told us to "forget about it". Last fall we decided this was a job for a tax attorney. I read reviews from every possible source trying to find a tax attorney with good reviews. Michael Raff's reviews were 100% great. I was suspicious of that many great reviews. I concluded that there were too many and too varied for the feedback to be fake. Not only that, he has a transparent and meticulous process for the way he bills and updates clients. Others before him pledged to keep us informed but only Michael proactively phoned us (and followed up with an e-mail) at the end of every month. The minimal retainer he asked for in order to work on this problem is still not used up. Michael was able to retrieve the money from the original error in LESS THAN SIX MONTHS, where other large, expensive firms had failed us for OVER 5 YEARS. He is still planning to retrieve money from the IRS on our behalf for the error adjacent money. We assumed he was a specialist only and worked as a dedicated tax attorney. Michael also does regualar tax preparation. It did not take much convincing to for us to engage him as our accountant. If you want an acccountant who is knowledgeable, dedicated, and ethical, I think you would be hard pressed to find someone more skilled than Michael Raff.

These people approved me for a loan had me DocuSign my contract one day, the next day they told me I had to verify my bank info by giving them my banks login credentials. After that humiliation ritual was completed I was then supposed to receive a last step call to go over loan repayment. Instead I received a text from Steve asking me if I had received the final repay call. I responded with a no to which he never responded . I then responded again with do I need to call? Still no response. So I called Steve and he immediately started telling me how he's sorry that he thinks "they walked" on the deal. Do not waste your time or energy with these people. They are inhumane and unprofessional. They go out of their way up until the 11th hour to humiliate you. Don't bother.
