Lisa seemed good when we could talk to her, but we would fail to get any response for weeks. This occurred multiple times with no one else to talk to. The most unorganized tax office I've ever dealt with. I'm afraid what my new CPA will say when they see the taxes J&J submitted. Very expensive, not worth the money.

Update: I have no idea why being a good tax practitioner depends upon who referred me, but just to…read moreclear the record, I did tell her who referred me. I also asked her IF she could also do my partner's taxes. They were not to be filed together, nor did she HAVE to accept either case if she knew she could not do the work. Lastly, she had ample time between when I last submitted my paperwork until she finally stated that she would be unable to file. I would also like to point out that my new tax consultant took all of ONE hour to complete and FILE my taxes. For her to try to justify her actions just shows what type of person she is. Truly Unbelievable!!!!!!

I am a trustee and a small business owner. I had been engaging Chapman and Associates for three…read moreyears in regards to both tax filings. I contacted Linda in late February regarding a very pressing concern that I had. A serious error had been made--not Linda's error, to be clear--but the situation made me very uneasy and I wanted to address it ASAP. I reached out again to Linda a few times in March and she told me not to worry; it will come together soon; that the tax deadline had been extended and that she was in the weeds helping other clients file for unemployment, etc. And then another month passes and it's April 19. I reach out again. In her response, she cuts/pastes an explanation that she is sending out when someone inquires about their tax prep: "As a result {of the COVID-19 crisis}, the tax preparation business has been mostly postponed until our clients have the government assistance in place to keep them afloat and keep their businesses from closing down permanently." At this point, I was frustrated on two levels: First, why wait for me to check in again on April 19 to share this information in regards to the delay? Wouldn't it be more professional to notify the clients you know are waiting so that they have the opportunity to work with someone else if they feel their needs are also urgent? Second: I am a struggling small business owner who would greatly benefit from some guidance right now. I only recently found out about a few different opportunities (not from Chapman) but I found out too little and too late. When I expressed my frustration, she told me to find someone else and flatly refused to file any returns on my behalf. As tempted as I am to paste our entire email exchange into this review, I don't want to breach confidentiality. But I would characterize her tone as sarcastic bordering on abusive, which seems especially inappropriate coming from someone whose services I was counting on, and who failed me on different levels. In a time of crisis, I hope you have an accountant you can count on. I have learned that lesson the hard way.
