I worked with Trip Farmer on a number of projects over nearly a decade and generally found him…read morereliable in the past. Unfortunately, a recent experience has forced me to reconsider that view. In late 2024, I requested a small task -- a file extension -- which I estimated would take 30 minutes. I asked Trip for a breakdown of the time and charges after receiving an unexpected invoice for $650+. I never received a clear response, despite following up. Months later, he sent a revised invoice for $350 -- again, without my agreement -- and eventually escalated the matter to debt collection charging me $842. To be clear: I made multiple attempts to resolve the dispute directly, including offering to pay for the 30 minutes of work I requested. My messages went unanswered for long stretches, and I was given no explanation for the charges beyond vague references to time spent. Being sent to collections over a disputed charge -- without any willingness to engage -- is not something I take lightly. I've worked with many collaborators over the years and never encountered anything like this. I share this to help others make an informed decision. Work with Trip only if you're comfortable with a lack of communication and the risk of escalation over relatively minor disputes.

I've dealt with a number of accountants over the years and they're a lot like lawyers in that they…read moreare slow to give advice/ definitive answers. Oftentimes, you leave their office wondering if their isn't a better resource and why you pay them. HHM is a breathe of fresh air. Yes, you'll pay a premium rate. But good advice/service comes with a price. If you're looking to get a simple personal tax return done, you can probably pay a small fee elsewhere. But if you are a business owner, have ownership in multiple entities, etc., you really need an expert in your corner (there are too many areas that a lot of CPAs overlook or simply know nothing about). With various partners in the firm, each brings a different area of expertise. I've only dealt with Kyle Christensen to this point. He's very professional, personable (yes, a personable CPA) and will certainly point you to another partner if his expertise doesn't match your needs. I recommend Kyle (and HHM) as often as possible. (Be sure to tell him you read Byron's Yelp review, if this was a factor in calling him).

Disappointed with this CPA firm. I initially contacted them for help reducing my taxable income and…read morewas told they could guide me. After submitting all my documents (in two batches), I was later told there was nothing they could do--contradicting what was promised. Their process was disorganized. I received four emails asking for different versions of a file instead of reviewing everything at once and asking for clarifications after. Communication was poor--I was promised multiple callbacks that never happened. When I finally rescheduled an appointment, I expected a phone call and never got one--only to learn they thought it was in person. The front desk is unhelpful and confused, making it hard for existing clients to get support. I was charged $375--much higher than the $275 I usually pay at H&R Block, where I get faster, more professional, and more efficient service. This firm might work for others, but I won't be returning.
