If you are looking for top-tier tax planning and preparation, Roslyn and her team are absolutely…read morephenomenal. I came to them with a pretty overwhelming and highly complex tax situation that required digging through multiple years of past transcripts. Roslyn didn't just handle it; she completely took the stress out of the process. She was incredibly thorough--catching missing documents, identifying potential deductions I would have never known about, and actually taking the time to outline a solid tax strategy for my future filings. What truly makes Roslyn different from other CPAs I've encountered is her patience. She has this amazing ability to take complicated tax jargon and break it down so it actually makes sense. Her experience and track record speak for themselves, but it's her personable approach to getting the work done that makes her the best in the industry. I couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend her to anyone!

She is also very kind and professional, and she even gave us a discount price, which we really appreciated. It shows she values her customers and wants to build long-term relationships.

Thai is a very dishonest person, in 2023 I contacted him to get my business taxes done. This was my…read morefirst mistake as he had no experience working with a property management company. He marked my business revenue as over $1 million when my business only made around 200,000 that year and I was forced to pay an astronomical amount of taxes which I needed to hire a new CPA to fix in the following years not only this I did not decide to continue with his services and he did not contact me for two years then randomly one day he decided to send me a bill of over $14,000 claiming that for the past two Years he had been reconciling my books keep in mind there was zero communication between the two of us for over two years and then randomly out of nowhere he sends me an invoice for $14,000 and threatened to sue me. If I do not pay, I refuse to pay since there were no services provided and now he decided to file a claim in small claims court, but is only suing me for $6000 I offered to reimburse him for a QuickBooks subscription that he had on my behalf but he did not accept and is asking me to pay him over $500 per month for reconciliation services on a bank account that has zero transactions monthly. Please avoid this CPA at all cost. There are much better options in the Bay Area.

I needed several 18"x24" signs printed for a wedding. I got several quotes from other places, and…read moreFast Signs was on par with all of them. It was an easy process. They were very responsive to my multiple emails and questions and checked the designs to make sure they'd look fine when printed on the foam boards. I was nervous because the designs looked fine on an 8.5"x11" piece of paper, but I worried they wouldn't look so great when enlarged. Abe reassured me that the designs would print exactly the same. All the signs were printed quickly and perfectly. One of the signs needed to be redone because of a mistake I made. They were kind enough to reprint it without charging me again. I can't say they'd do this for all customers because that could amount to a lot of lost revenue, but I am grateful that they saved me a little money.

Horrible service! I was recommended to this firm from the next door app which I will be posting…read morethere too. I was in dire need of getting my 1099 for my small business completed. I was already 6 days behind completing them. Melissa -the daughter of the owner- knows how to swindle you especially when you are desperate for help. I was told when I came in to pay $350 up front which they never told me that was just a deposit. To my knowledge it was to perform the work. All the work. And she also had said she could do it in a few days (3). Ok so I paid and I put my credit card down for them to keep. Big mistake. Never leave your card for a vendor to keep! After the 4th day I was wondering what was the hold up. They needed two more ein that Melissa never emailed on. I had to reach out and she finally responded after a day. Then she preceded to tell me since she just gotten the new ein number it would take another 5 business days! After two weeks I was asking when they will be done. I know they were slammed and trying to buy time or charge me for that time. I was right when they finally called that they were ready after 2.5 weeks they said my invoice was $1900!! They processed twenty-eight 1099s for me. I was flabbergasted. I said to the front lady Patty which I am sure she is use to swindling people for the Chan's that I was not told it would be more. She said oh yes sweetie we charge by the hour. When the invoice finally came in there were no hours listed!! It was just a straight preparing and rechecking etc all for $1900. I said I'm not paying. I ended up doing my own 1099 through a phone call with Intuit. How long did it take me less than 2 hours! And I'm a novice with QuickBooks. If I can figure it out anyone can. The only advice I can give is to do your due diligence on this firm! This mother daughter team is a modern day Bonnie and Clyde! **Update** see forms below. A picture is worth a thousand words! Do you see deposit or hourly rates listed on them?

I requested that these folks help me determine my tax liability for 2023 after a huge life event…read morethat caused me to cash out a lot of stock. I am not rich, and I was worried about having to sell my home to pay for taxes. I involved these folks from August 2023, and as they looped in my ex inappropriately and basically just sent some emails with no results, I did not expect to be charged. Even if I was to be charged, they never talked about fees or costs or anything and I did not sign any agreements. Then, in February 2024 I get an invoice dated 12/31/2023 for $750 for work done in 2023! I email the person I was working with and they stated that they would "void" my invoice. Then I get an invoice again on 02/29/2024 for the same! These people have not acted professionally and I would not recommend them at all. If I have to pay, it is sad that they have neither heart for my precarious financial situation, nor do they honor what was stated in email as an agreement. Either way, $750 for a few emails and minimal follow up seems extremely expensive and I am glad they did not complete my taxes or anything else, as it will already cause me to choose between paying them and being able to pay my monthly expenses, such as eating. I hate writing negative feedback, but I feel that this firm is just after my money and could care less about the people they say they are trying to help. I wish there was a less than 1 star I could give for this, and it pains me that I have to resort to reviews when they are so unresponsive and uncaring. I should add that I am giving them one last chance to make this right. If I am forced to pay and not have enough to eat I will be reporting this to the BBB, Dept of Consumer Affairs, and anywhere else I can, like the AICPA.
