My husband is a musician who does lots of gig/freelance work and we wanted to get professional eyes on our taxes as our situation has become more complex. We had an intro call with Sandy who assured us she could help with our situation. We then decided to take the next step and provided all of our documents within their portal on March 3rd. After submitting we heard nothing back from them for weeks and so we called towards the end of the month to check in. When we did this they only then started asking us for additional documents and wanted us to reformat all profits and losses within their specific document formats despite us already providing these 4 weeks prior in our own format. We asked them if they could just use our existing documents and they said that would be an additional bookkeeper service of $300. At this point we were very frustrated that they took an entire month to tell us all of this after we submitted initial documents. We ended up filing with an alternative.

I am a professional dancer and I found Harlan after doing some research trying to find a CPA that had experience dealing with people in the biz. I always had to pay money when filing my taxes due to the large amount of 1099s I deal with. I have a business degree and I felt comfortable doing my own taxes, however with Harlan's guidance I have learned so much about what I can legally write off as a self employed person. He is a pleasure to deal with. . . friendly, professional, knowledgable, and reliable. He is also a great teacher with a ton of patience. I never feel silly asking him questions and he always promptly responds in detail. My taxes were done the day after I left his office this year. He not only provides excellent, timely service, but he truly cares about his clients. I even got a recommendation from him of an insurance agent to check out when I stated what I was paying for car insurance. If that isn't going above and beyond, I don't know what is. I would never think of going to anyone else to prepare my taxes and you shouldn't either. If you want to feel confident in your return and you enjoy exceptional service than Harlan is your man.

He charges $350/hour. He took the job, filled out and filed the forms, and the IRS rejected them. I originally chose him because of his 5-star Yelp reviews. After filing he went client hen I followed up, he kept pointing me to IRS Advocates -- people who couldn't make sense of what he'd filed. His response to my frustration: "The Advocate is the only solution that has worked for me in cases like this." Meanwhile, he admitted his own go-to CPA colleague "couldn't figure this one out either." His excuse for not calling the IRS directly? He couldn't get through -- too hard to bypass the automated system. That's not my problem to solve. That's what I paid $350/hour for. I knew from the beginning that a 1040-NR was the right path. He ignored that for an entire year, burned time on the wrong strategy, and only admitted it when the deadlines had already passed: "Now we finally know that a 1040NR is our only option. We didn't know that before." The only thing that got him to respond was a negative Yelp review. He called, promised to finish the work if I deleted it and paid more. I made the mistake of trusting him -- deleted the review and paid him more. He delivered nothing. I eventually had to handle everything myself. When I did, I was told his original filings were done incorrectly from the start. I left a second review. He called again asking me to remove it in exchange for finishing. I refused. One more thing: the address on his profile -- 10717 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 904, Los Angeles, CA 90024 -- is not a real office.
