Bob and Charlie have benn preparing my ex husbands taxes decades. However upon my separation from…read moreex, he had stolen my 1099.Went in person seeking my 1099, per usual they informed me that ex doesn't file until October.Instructed them when he brings in his taxes DO NOT FILE WITH HIM, he's living a double life with another and don't want joint filing when we are not a couple anymore.Was told they would do as I asked. Well they filed with ex ]. Ex called telling me he would forge my signature per his usual dishonest habit. So called Kriegers office demanding reason why they went ahead and proceeded with this, when specifically requested they DON'T ?? Charlie told me he'd mail my 1099, declaring only made 5.000 ? Wrong it was just over 10.000 Still Charlie said mailing it. Well that was October 2022.They failed in mailing still haven't ,it's December 13 2024.Contacted them regarding all taxes filed jointly,Charlie said that wasn't possible? Told him legally you must provide me with all jointly filed taxes with forged signatures, may have signed 3-4 ex has habit of forging my signature amoungst other illegal habits. That was last year still haven't received 1099 or anything So they will be answering courts as why. So seek any other Accountant Firm before you consider Krieger,they also hadn't filed appropriate forms accountants are required one year.If they could not do that ? Would you trust them ? if they couldn't return call, or mail my 1099's and do as they deemed appropriate filing with ex. Just a friendly heads up

I used this person as the preparer for a joint return with my now ex-husband, at the recommendation…read morefrom one of my ex-husband's friends. Since I was at the time employed in financial services, I was the point person to deal with Mr. Cushman, who for some reason seemed displeased from the start. He repeatedly ignored numerous phone messages from me - for weeks. When I finally sent an e-mail (so I'd then have a paper trail) indicating that his refusal to respond to my voice mails gave me pause, he quickly phoned me back and told me to get another accountant for the following year. There was nothing wrong with our return that I know of, but Mr. Cushman's blatant rudeness and refusal to work with me was beyond mention.

Joe is the BEST thing we did for our company, Altared Visions. I found him through rave reviews and…read moresuggestions on the SouthCoast Girl Photographers Night Out group on Facebook and I could kiss everyone that sent us to him! Joe will meet with you and learn all about your business. He acts as an accountant, financial adviser and business consultant all in one! His advice has helped up clean up our back end and finally tackle sales tax and all the other things that made tax time a nightmare in years past! His rates are great, his service is fast and prompt and he is so easy to reach. We really couldn't ask for more. Thank you Joe, for all you do!!

Nakata Consulting is an essential piece of my business life!!…read more But for the rest of this review let's just be on a first name basis and talk about Joe. I would have probably given up the whole self employed business long ago if not for Joe. I found Joe through some other colleagues in the Boston photography network years ago. I'll admit I was more than clueless about how to keep my bookkeeping organized and he took me under his wing, took the chaos and made sense of it all. Now I do most of the bookkeeping on my own and he gives it a look once a month to make sure I'm on track. In a "teach a man to fish...." sort of a way. Monthly, quarterly and annual taxes are a breeze now and I can confidently make business purchases and know the overall health of the business. If you're a small business (he has a keen knowledge of the photography business - take a look at his client list!! http://www.nakataconsulting.org/links.php ), but also for restaurants, etc... He'll do your sales taxes, bookkeeping, consulting and all at reasonable rates. I've referred him to friends (non-business owners) as well and he'll definitely take care of you. So walk right past H&R Block and call Joe!

Absolutely, DO NOT use H&R Block in Amesbury. I don't recall having a worse service experience…read morewith any business in the past. If I could give negative stars I would. I got charged way more than was appropriate for the service I rec'd. And my tax pro Mike A) couldn't do the job himself and B) NEVER initiated a call. I dropped my stuff off on April 8th and got it back in early June. This was a very basic filing. Every call was met with "oh, I was just finishing up xyz for you..." It was an absolute joke. The manager of that HR Block runs many of them throughout the Newburyport area up to Portsmouth. I would recommend NEVER using any of these if you want decent service. I was promised a credit over a month ago. No one ever followed up...and when I just called, I got "i'll call now and follow up on the credit". Absolute Joke of service.

Had an appointment for 5:00PM with Dudley at H&R Block In Amesbury. Arrived at 4:50 and was told…read morethat Dudley was wrapping up with another customer and would be right with me. At 5:20 I approached the reception desk to ask about my appointment. The receptionist went to Dudley and I heard him say "Tell him to leave" I departed a few moments later. This is very unprofessional. I departed my job early to make this appointment. They should schedule longer appointments instead of making customers wait. This is the 1st (and last) experience with H&R Block.

This one is serious…read more Had a contractor go bankrupt on us several years ago resulting in a loss. Wasn't sure my current accountant would be up to the task of a complicated business loss filling, so I inquired here (can't remember exactly why). This accountant advised in a somewhat flippant and condescending manner that such a loss was not deductable. Having done a whole 45 seconds of online research on the topic I was fairly certain she was wrong but debating the issue was a non-starter. Which led me back to my original accountant. Who confirmed that yes indeed, this was a deductable loss. Boy did I feel guilty for going somewhere else first. Oh, and the deduction saved us 12k. 12k! I still can't believe this actually happened.

Over the past year+ at times there has been a wait. Obviously due to them not being open inside. Each visit I can't say that there's ever been any problems. The staff that I have interacted with have always been friendly and accommodating. Yesterday, later in the day I went to make a purchase and realized my debit card was missing. Had I lost or misplaced it? Well, I have no idea but called and had it cancelled ASAP. Earlier today I stopped in at the Seabrook NH branch to have it replaced. The staff member who helped me was excellent and any wait wasn't long . I was out with my new card within maybe 15 minutes. Very pleased!
