I've worked with Hamlin & Co. At a few different businesses over the years. They helped me set up payroll at a company I was managaing and was the first place I called when I purchased a business. They are very accommodating to questions and are always available when I need something. Even if they don't directly deal with the question I am asking they go above and beyond and help me find the right answer or the right person to talk to. I've dealt with many different employees at Hamlin and they all are a pleasure to work with. Other places I have worked with wouldn't respond or would take days to get back to me. Hamlin and Co. Are very professional and courteous and always there when I need them. I wouldn't trust my accounts with anyone else. read more

We have been using James Hamlin for our personal and business taxes, CPA, and payroll services for years. What sets them apart is the personal touch they bring. Any time we have questions about ANYTHING, their response is prompt and professional. They have helped guide us through the minefield of corporate taxes, simplified our payroll, and given us back precious time that we can devote to our business. Special shout out to Jack, who over the years has taken my call/texts at 9pm and had my answer when I woke up in the morning! read more

$225 a mo is what my detailing business paid and now I just paid off the IRS $2,500 which I was automatically stuck paying when I left the accountant. I tried to dispute it with the IRS but that didn't go well. I asked the Hamlin company to help me establish business credit and I wanted to keep my business separate from my home address. Nope, now I have another $9,200 attached to me personally that the accountant said WAS separate from me personally. This might be confusing because there is soooo much to it. You'll see, go ahead. Found out they did the same to an old friend of mine where the accountants didn't have anything to give back to him when my friend switched accounting firms. I saved every last documented to back me up and I will gladly display everything for the world to see. How the Hamlin company works is simple... you will do things their way and they will see to it that you pay regardless. Even the companies that don't have any issues with these people, how much you paying? I paid a lot of money for a dinky little business I can only imagine what a real company is paying. Do you know what your paying for? Is it necessary to pay such high fees for such simple bookkeeping? They did nothing for my company except act like it was a roaring monster drawing in millions of dollars a year. You got me, now I know scam artists really do look like dirt bags. read more

I've been using Hamlin & Co. for 4 years now. I utilize their payroll dept. and accounting. I couldn't be happier with their service! The payroll dept. handles all my payroll needs and answers all my questions fast and courteously. The accounting dept. has kept me up to date with periodic meetings throughout the year to keep me abreast of my business needs and tax requirements. The fees are competitive and the personal are always professional and easy to talk to. Wouldn't go anywhere else! read more
