I originally found Darryl Hale on Yelp and had him prepare our taxes the last couple of years…read morewithout issue. This year Darryl reached out directly offering tax planning services. After paying the $2,500 assessment fee Darryl recommended two tax strategies, both of which raised significant concerns: 1) GFX Trading - a complex Series LLC foreign currency structure. This strategy was presented as a way to generate large tax deductions through foreign currency trading. When I asked for written explanations of how the strategy worked, what the economic substance was, and how it would hold up under IRS scrutiny, the answers were incomplete and at times inaccurate. When I declined to proceed, he called me immediately, insisting "everyone is doing this," and became defensive. I later understood that his affiliated company receives commissions from this arrangement, which was not disclosed before he recommended it. 2) DNA Harmony - involving the purchase of gift certificates for Jazz Band Splash red-light therapy. This was presented as a deductible expense through a separate Series LLC structure. Again, I requested information in writing about the IRS basis for deducting these types of purchases, but the responses did not address compliance, valuation, or audit exposure. When I decided not to move forward with either strategy based on the lack of clear documentation and concerns about risk, I requested a refund of my $2,500 fee. The request was denied. My experience did not meet the level of professionalism I expect from a tax advisor. I would not return nor recommend Darryl Hale and will be filing a complaint with the IRS Office of Professional Responsibility and notifying the California Franchise Tax Board.

I recently hired Tulsi Tax Solutions to prepare a somewhat complicated past due return for my…read moredeceased fathers estate. I had been putting the task off unfortunately, because I didn't know where to start, having zero experience with anything other than my own personal income tax returns. I received letters from the IRS and the State, however, asking for the returns, and it was only going to get more expensive if I put it off! Tulsi completely understood my situation and was able to prepare the returns for me with a very quick turnaround time, which I much appreciated. I also had a ton of questions, and since my Dad had past away several years earlier, did not have all the necessary backup paperwork that someone would normally have. Tulsi was able to 'think outside the box' to get the returns completed for me. She is knowledgable, reasonably priced, honest, and her years of experience shows. Thank you, Tulsi, for helping me during this stressful time! I would highly recommend Tulsi Tax Solutions to anyone needing tax help!

If he's THAT busy, than I'll gladly take my business elsewhere. He makes me upload sensitive documents to a website that is "secure". I already felt uneasy about it, but I trusted Leroy. Now, the IRS is coming to me about my taxes bc HE made a mistake. But of course, I can't call or meet him in person bc he's "very busy". I'm not going to text this whole situation over the phone and then wait for a response. I'd rather talk over the phone or in person to get it over and done with. When I first came to Leory, he was polite and nice. Overtime, he became rude. Take extra caution choosing Leroy as your tax accountant.

Probably the best thing I did for my practice. I have somewhat of an atypical psychiatric practice…read moreand Paul (my CFO advisor for almost 3 years now) took a risk by taking on a type of practice that they weren't (at that time) familiar with. Over time, Paul and the rest of the PracticeCFO team has learned the minutia of what we do, and now is able to help advise in a very effective manner. I can't say enough about how helpful PracticeCFO has been. For example, they unwound a nightmare situation with a 401k gone awry. This alone took many many man-hours and countless emails to fix (shout out to Brandon and Paul for that). They have kept my payroll totally dialed in and taxes at the end of the years are a total breeze due to all the planning and adjusting that goes on constantly throughout the year. The accessibility to the PracticeCFO team is awesome, too. If something pops up that I need guidance on, I can get almost immediate assistance. We went from a little podunk practice with 2 employees (one physician and one admin worker) barely breaking even and probably on the verge of bankruptcy, potential tax fraud (sarcasm-not actually committing fraud), and other business disasters. Seriously, my practice would have been dead if I had not stumbled upon Paul and his team when I did. If you are a small practice (dentist, veterinarian, physician, etc.) you are doing yourself a huge disservice by not contacting these guys to help your practice succeed. We as healthcare professionals have been failed by our education and training institutions with regards to how to do anything business minded, let alone run a practice, so let the pros do it. These guys know their stuff and have a nice network of resources. Fast forward after 3 years with PracticeCFO: I have a killer 401k plan blossoming, my taxes are totally dialed, and my practice grows constantly, we are building equity and net worth, and so on. Best of all, I sleep great at night knowing these guys have the $$$ dialed in. Thank you guys so much! Jake Hollingsworth, D.O. https://pacificpsychcenters.com

A couple years ago I got the kind of scary mail from the IRS you never want to see, and it's…read morebecause of a straightforward W-2 mistake David made on my income tax return. He still won't pay me back for it. The facts: - In 2021 I got a decent-sized raise at my job. (Brag?) When it came time to file my 2021 taxes, David accidentally COPY AND PASTED the much lower income from the previous year, 2020. So he underreported my income by a lot. Of course he had my accurate 2021 W-2 -- but he was too disorganized, rushed or careless to use it. - Not only that, he copy and pasted some *unemployment income* from 2020 into my 2021 return, so -- to add insult to injury -- not only did he massively under-report my salary, he also slightly over-reported it with non-existent unemployment income. - I ended up owing almost $10K in back taxes, interest, and an extra-high penalty. - After I paid the back taxes, he tried to help with appealing the penalty. But he did this by sending the IRS a half-hearted ashy letter about numbers that were "entered incorrectly" and he didn't specifically request or argue for an abatement in the penalty. - (I also paid a ridiculous amount of interest.) - Unsurprisingly the IRS rejected this attempt and ruled that the penalty must be paid. - It's around this time that communication with David York became especially spotty, where he said he'll call the IRS...but then he fell off the map and it took weeks to hear back from him. - I paid the penalty by the deadline. - He called the IRS (after the deadline lol) then emailed me claiming that the "the penalty and interest have been removed" and I'm like...wtf are you talking about. That's probably because of what I paid already?? - I've asked him to reimburse me just for some of penalties and interest, $1,852.68 -- which doesn't even include an earlier interest payment or state penalties that his mistake bubbled up. Gave him an address to send a check. But he hasn't. It's been radio silence from David York. - "You should hear back from me by Monday" is the last thing he wrote to me, back in January 2025, words to echo on into the void forever. - Silver lining though, I recently learned Rihanna's accountant also owes her money so now I have something in common with Rihanna. Read the one-star reviews. They'll save you a lot of time and $$$$$ in the future. (Oh, and side note not related to this income tax fiasco -- on a return for my S Corp at the time, he didn't even provide us the full return, just an authorization page that was missing Form 1120-S and the K1, so we were scrambling the following year looking for it.) I also noticed his business has a second profile on yelp, which might help him get around these one-stars. You should choose literally anyone else to do your taxes.
