I would go elsewhere. I first came to Bob at the recommendation of a co-worker 3yrs ago. He seemed…read morefairly priced and his credentials made me believe I was getting a deal. I even recommended him to a friend. It seems Bob screwed up my friends return and would not help him when he was audited by the IRS. The co-worker who originally recommended him to me ended up having their identity stolen and had a difficult time getting things sorted out. Today I received a letter from the IRS saying I owe them a couple thousand dollars because Bob neglected to enter one of my wife's W2s. I'll never go back to this guy again. TurboTax will be getting my business from now on.

We now have taxes that can result in paper trails up to an inch thick or more each year, and after reading on the internet that Egon specializes in gas and oil leases I was in. He had me fill in a large sheet of tax information to get started and then helped me fill in the blanks when I had questions or concerns. Egon is great at communication and works hard to make sure you get the tax deductions that you qualify for. I did some freelance work last year and he helped me to deduct my freelance expenses with no problem. His final paperwork post-return is organized and helpful for future tax years. Getting to his office is a bit of a potshot, as you have to watch the street numbers on Koenig very carefully and then turn in quickly to the driveway unsuited for 45mph turns and angry tailgating-in-the-right-lane drivers. However, his office is clean and comfortable once you get in. He's one of those guys that I imagine fitting in really well on A Prairie Home Companion tapings - tall, blond and stolid.

He knows his stuff and always gets us out ahead. Very trustworthy, efficient, punctual, nice, and helpful. His fee is really not that much, either. In case you think you need to have complicated taxes to use his services, that is not at all true! Feel confident in you filing and use Egon.

Here's my experience. Took about 2 week for my accountant to get me the proper documents. When I…read morefinally uploaded everything it took another 2 weeks to get a basic reply back. I had to go into the office in person multiple times just to get a response. Multiple people deflected me to other people who didn't help. Could hardy get someone to answer the phone. My accountant was incapable of sending me an email for most of the process. Almost 2 months later my return was finally ready, and the cherry on top is they charged me almost $400 for an individual basic return! I would never recommend this business to anyone. Stay well away

He has actually pointed out different scenarios that I could start taking advantage of for future filings. Over the past 5 years David has made a FEW mistakes in regards to communication...S#%t happens. I told him- he apologized- case closed. I WOULD recommend David to others who are subcontractors/1099 etc. Just remember though, HE IS A TAX GUY. I tell him every time "I hate being here!" I hate paying a whole bunch of money to the IRS just like everyone else. On another note his pricing is fair, and I do believe he does a lot better job than I could do myself!

Ellen claims she doesn't treat everyone poorly, only me, but my experience with this CPA has been…read moreanything but enjoyable. I reached out at the very beginning of 2023 for her help to sort through some previous issues with my tax filing a previous year and to catch up my taxes for 2021 and 2022 because I was behind. I expressed to her how important it was that I got the finance stuff under control and it was something I needed to take care of ASAP so I could move through 2023 with better tools. She ensured me she would take care of me so I agreed to work with her. Come April, she barely finished my 2021 taxes and said she was filing an extension for my 2022 taxes. Needless to say, my taxes were filed ON October 15th, which she blamed me for, for not signing the paperwork as soon as she finished it at the end of September, but I just wanted to be able to look over what she did before I submitted which I believe is fair. She said she was setting me up with a payment plan, but my payment plan was never submitted even though she told me it was. She also suggested I file as an s-corp and mentioned this multiple times and I said, "ok, just let me know what you need from me." but nothing ever came of that so I'm sure I'm paying more in self-employment taxes than I need to. I owe the government money for multiple tax years and I received a menacing letter from the IRS to which she responded, "It's not a big deal. That's just a scare tactic." But, it very much IS a big deal to me, my bank account, my business, my goals, etc. Also, it took me texting 3 weeks in a row trying to get ahold of her to ask about these letters from the IRS. I finally got fed up and asked if I needed to find a new CPA so she finally responded that she was recovering from surgery so she didn't respond even though the read receipts showed she saw my texts immediately after I sent them. I specifically asked her if she was familiar with Profit First because I wanted to use that model of accounting and she said she did know it well and we should have a zoom meeting that she could charge me for to talk about it. I agreed thinking I would get the information I needed, but when we got on the call, she stated she actually didn't know anything about Profit First, but she did some googling prior to our talk and then just told me things that I already knew from reading the book. I wanted specific information regarding MY business and the way MY books were, but she just told me generic percentages that didn't even work for me. She repeatedly told me how much time she took out of her personal life to try to learn this just for me as if I owed her for doing her job which she actually lied to me about knowing. I also don't think an accountant learning about another form of accounting is something SO crazy for an accountant to do that it should be brought up over and over, but maybe that's just me. When this all finally came to a head with the IRS documents and her refusing to help me sort it out quickly because it was "no big deal," I asked if the way she was treating me was typical and she then told me no, that it was just me and I am one of the most uncooperative clients she has. (I expressed to her early on that my office days are always Mondays so that is when I can catch up to anything I have missed during the week as I'm out in the field most of the week.) So she would send me a text late on a Wednesday and then text repeatedly if I didn't respond immediately. Even though every time I asked for help, she would claim she was way too busy to respond to me. She always said she had SO many clients to help ,she just didn't have time for me and then if she needed a response from me about something, it had to be right that moment or I became the "difficult client." As a small business owner myself, I would NEVER call someone uncooperative because they didn't text me outside of business hours. And in my opinion, her choice to wait ALL YEAR to start my taxes isn't MY FAULT. If she would have been working on them when they were supposed to be done, she wouldn't have had to rush to get them done by October. My advice to you, if you're someone looking for an experienced CPA who cares about their clients and their money, DON'T HIRE ELLEN. You will lose progress you have made and then be even farther up the river without a paddle and you won't have any idea what to do and she won't care. Hire someone else.
