I've worked with Metcalf and Hodge for 2 years. Both years they sent me outrageous invoices. This…read morelast year the invoice was for more than 8000 dollars. I asked them for some sort of a back up or break down, they said they would work on that and to this day I haven't received anything. I feel they have been dishonest with me. Also, I received a letter from the IRS that stated I owed interest and penalties because my return wasn't sent in on time from Metcalf and Hodge. I took the letter to Metcalf and Hodge and they said to not pay it that there were a lot of people with the same letter and they would fix it. Well they didn't fix it and the IRS sent it to collections. Lastly, the communication is horrible! They don't communicate with each other or with me. When you do finally get a hold of someone they have plenty of excuses but never get anything done. I've since switched to an accounting firm that cares and communicate.

Excellent communication, professional, and timely when it comes to taxes and end of the year planning for my business. While they may not be the cheapest (the best usually aren't), they are comprehensive and honest. Put simply, If you're looking for a reliable and proactive CPA firm, this is it.

I would give Jamie infinite stars if I could. I had a piece of escrow document that needed to be…read morenotarised and, literally, overnighted to California. Not only did Jamie try her best to accommodate my incredibly tight timeframe, but she also offered (she absolutely didn't have to!) to drop off the mail at Fedex for me using her own address - so the mail would be considered domestic (instead of international from Vancouver), faster and cheaper. We met on a Saturday morning near the border (she drove to Blaine, which is 20 miles closer to me, to meet). Had Starbucks together - other than getting the work down flawlessly, we also had a great conversation. She's very easygoing, sweet, and professional, and on my drive back home I was thinking to myself, "I need to give this wonderful woman a 5 star review", which is rare because I almost leave exclusively negative reviews on Yelp. She's great. I can't recommend her enough. *screams* Thank you again Jamie!

I asked to have it cancelled and did not realize I was being charged for it for MANY more months when I was not using it.

Joyce was a lifesaver! Knew someone that lived in Vancouver and needed a legal document notarized…read moreand recorded in the United States. That person initially got the notarization in Canada, but the recording office rejected the document stating that we would need to obtain an Apostille for use in the United States from the Global Affairs Office. Reached out to the Global Affairs Office and the turnaround time was close to 4 months! Found Joyce through Yelp, and she was very friendly and accommodating. Got this done without any hassle. Highly recommend anyone living in the Vancouver area in need of a U.S. Notary to drive to the border town of Blaine and reach out to Joyce. Make sure you call in advance to schedule your appointment.

Within the first two weeks of having hired this Law Firm, it was apparent that Michael Kleps had…read moredifficulty answering questions but said he could help me right away if I paid an additional 20%. Which I did. But I would email questions and not get answers and have to resend the same question and get charged again. At a time when the only reason I'm seeking their assistance is due to the death of a loved one, I expected there to be at least some kindness and helpfulness extended. There never was. I would email the same question two and three times and never get an answer, but always got corresponding charges. I started looking my questions up on the internet. Things we're at a stand still for a while, as I sold property and then needed Michael's help to finish up. Again, he would not answer questions I emailed and I even remembered asking him those questions a year earlier when this first began. He complained that my bill was high because of my constant emails. I advised him that the emails were repetitive questions. I couldn't believe that he wasn't aware of this, but now I'm certain that he was very aware of what he was doing. He was nickel-and-diming the estate and finally I had to speak with his Superior who at first refused to speak with me. When I sent him an email expressing my displeasure that he even refused to speak with me and that there was no recourse he answered and said, Michael told him that he was able to handle the situation but he knew good and well then that Michael was not handling the situation because I had sent him as a heads-up, particular documents, also complaining that Michael would not answer questions. I had to speak with his boss two times. I ended up paying twice as much as what I read online a probate should cost and we hadn't even gotten into the difficult work, when the costs would really rise. We started working on, what would he called, the Financial Statement, where he refused to include my wages as part of the financial statement. He had assigned a secretary to work with me to try to prove that I was receiving a fair payment for my work but after disbursements were made between beneficiaries, there was no money left to pay my wages. He refused 6 times to include my wages in the financial statement, all the while charging me for this repetitive work of six times, which finally pushed me to firing the law firm of Carmichael Clark. Michael had tried to get me to drop him but since I am out of state, I did not want the difficulty of trying to find another attorney but he forced me into a position of having to fire him, which now I see so clearly why he wanted me to fire him. He never told me that being out of state, I was required to have an agent. He said that I could easily finish it on my own, but Washington law does not allow for that, which I did not know and Michael knew that I did not know that. There is so much more I could say but you get the general idea. I strongly urge anyone to look for other representation. They are only interested in nickel-and-diming the client and not doing any work for it.
