He cranked through them quickly, answered our questions clearly, and ultimately charged a very reasonable fee. The things I liked best about working with him: * He came to our house on a Sunday afternoon for the initial consultation - that saved us a lot of time since we have kids and work full-time * He is extremely responsive on email * He isn't too old school - he was able to share files using dropbox, scan paper docs, and generally work with us electronically. Not too many phone calls, paper docs, etc that the old school guys still rely on. * His final bill was very reasonable I don't write a lot of yelp reviews, but this was a super positive experience so I thought I'd share.

Complete rip-off, and she rudely asked if I was "expecting" twice. I sincerely hope that at least…read morewas a miscommunication, even if everything else was blatantly bad business. We went to an advertised "free" consultation. I asked a question, and was told it would cost $139 and turn into a tax consult if she answered. So, the free consultation didn't allow us to ask any questions, or else it would become a consultation and cost money...? Make it make sense. I said I understood, she didn't need to answer, yet at the end, after NOT answering my question about realtor commissions counting for cost basis when calculating capital gains, and telling us a tax document was incorrect and sending us on a wild goose chase (it said at the top DOES NOT CONTAIN STATE TAX INFORMATION yet she told us my husband's employer misreported his state tax info, which both other accountants I interviewed caught and explained immediately), she still surprised us with a $139 bill. We paid to avoid a scene as she had other clients, but do plan to reach out and ask for a refund, as we never agreed to pay after being advertised a "free" consult- that contained multitudes of bad information regardless! We were going to be MASSIVELY overcharged had we gone with her, as she was over 10x the price of the lowest option and nearly 10x the price as the next most expensive option, that included audit insurance. We had moderately complicated taxes, due to capital gains on a house. We are not self employed, do not have any investments, own a business, or have any other complicating factor to justify the insane price we were quoted. It took her the full hour to sort through our documents and she still wasn't near done- other accountants ranged from 45 min- 1 hour for a complete consult. She was going to charge us approximately $5,000. Other accountants quoted us from $300-600. (We went with H+R Block due to their audit insurance for an estimated total of $600, which still very much on the high end for filing taxes.) And before anyone assumes miscommunication- she gave us a printed bill with estimated charges totaling $4896. That was not our estimated tax burden, that was HER fee to file our taxes. During the free consults with the other accountants, they both answered all my questions (like one does during a free consult...) and both accountants pointed out factual errors in what we had been told. (See above, some 2024 W2s put state tax information on a separate page/document, and she was unaware of this change, for the most stressful example.) Anne Shade insisted we had to file extra paperwork and called it "difficult" when you sell and buy a house in the same tax year- even though most people who sell a house buy another to have a place to live- and both other accountants explained that in our case we only had to file paperwork on the first house, and any paperwork related to the newly acquired house would only matter when we go to sell. She also gave us information disputed by both other accountants and my own research about the medical exemption to capital gains tax, and the amount of up-front documentation needed to claim that exemption. She was going to file, and charge us for, a ton of unnecessary documents. I do not know how this "free" consult went so horribly off the rails. But I am not the only review online with a claim of being overcharged to file unnecessary documents.

We were sent between several different personnel who work for the office who could not seem to communicate timely and effectively with each other. The accountants were not able to complete services they agreed to complete, and we ended up owing around 20k for a service they agreed to perform but then did not perform. Thankfully we had the money to do so when we suddenly found out what was owed. I wrote an email expressing my concerns to the owner who was quick to just let us go as a client (with about 5 minutes of reviewing the case before responding to us and letting us go) it shows their lack of interest in retaining clients or actually addressing issues within their own company. Poor customer service. I would highly recommend seeking services elsewhere.

I reached out to Mak three times to ask when I could pick up my tax return and was ignored each time. On the actual day taxes were due, I had to chase him down myself. When I finally got in touch, he was shockingly rude and disrespectful, and then told me the fee was $395--even though he had originally quoted me $95. This was never mentioned until the last possible moment, and it honestly felt like a bait-and-switch. If I had known the real cost from the beginning, I never would've trusted him with my information. I'm filing a complaint with the Rhode Island Board of Accountancy, because this behavior is not just unprofessional--it's unethical. Avoid at all costs.

I have to say during the initial stages of talking with the folks in the office deciding if this was the route we wanted to go they were very nice and responsive. We thought their pricing was reasonable and we decided we would try Jonathan Ucran's services. We were set up with a portal. I was proactive getting all of our paperwork together and uploaded. Once it was all uploaded I checked a few times seeing if there were any notes or things posted on our 'to do' list. Nothing. i reached out to the office and I was told they would get to our info soon and would receive a call withing a week. A week passes- no call. nothing. I call back again. Apologies, they said they were busy wrapping up corporate accounts and withing a week, again, we would be contacted. Ok. gain, no call. I had to call again! This is how our relationship went for the rest of our communication in completing our taxes with their office. We were told that our taxes were complete. They asked us to submit our bank account information so they could submit our taxes. I drove to their office and dropped off a check so I was not charged any fees. The next day we received our RI ax return in check format in the mail?! What?! I called the office. Left a message with an employee. No return call. Call again and refused to accept not speaking to someone. Apparently someone mailed in our taxes without our signatures or our banking information! They said there was a mix up in the office?! Also they tried to blame all our return call issues on Covid. To be clear... they were not returning our calls BEFORE Covid started. I have used TurboTax for years. This was my first experience with paying someone for my taxes. Bad experience. We were sure to alert our realtor about the service we received and next year we will not be working with Jonathan Ucran.
