I have used Joan Hodges CPA for many years. She is very professional, extremely detailed, and her…read morepricing is very fair. She is wonderful...

My experience with Joan M. Hodges has unfortunately been misleading & very costly due to her…read moremistakes and her gross lack of professionalism. I paid her last year, as I have every year since 2009 to do my taxes. I recently received a notice from the IRS, she made a mistake. I went to her office two weeks ago & brought her the letter. She said she would call me in a couple of days. I called her again yesterday, she was very rude over the phone saying she did not have time to look over my paperwork. She also said she had not done a thing regarding this mistake she made. There was no remorse or empathy in her voice or anything she said. She did not say when or even if she would care to help me with a problem she caused. This mistake she made is easy for her to fix and she is leaving me in the dark to figure her mistake out on my own. As a result, thousands of dollars owed to the IRS due to her carelessness. Do not let her Southern "charm" fool you. She is not kind, she is just looking out for herself and she will not fix the problems she causes. Please do not trust her with something as precious as your finances. I wish someone would have warned me. There are plenty of reputable CPA's that back their work up and care enough to fix the mistakes they may make. Caring for her clients is not the work ethic of Joan M. Hodges.

Stephen did an excellent job with our taxes! We had lots of moving parts in our taxes this year and…read morethe last, so he reviewed last years' taxes, too, just to make sure we were good to go. He explained things as he looked them up, was easy to talk to, and got them done quickly. I had used Coastal Tax a long time ago when they were a lot easier, so I was glad they are still open in Georgetown and I didn't have to go to some chain like the masses. Ultimately, I like to support locally-sourced businesses :)

Then I got a financial advisor and she told me to go to On Call Accounting & Tax Services out in Hampton Bays, NY. First of all, I'm paying much less than my old guy because I'm not paying Manhattan prices! I worked with Rhonda Cohen on preparing two years of taxes which I was very late on. Because I'm based in Manhattan, I wasn't able to visit their office in person. Rhonda was very helpful in talking to me over the phone and we pretty much took care of everything by email/regular mail. I explained to her that the IRS gave me a pretty tough deadline, and she really worked hard to make sure I was able to file by that date. I'm so grateful I found these guys! I am such a scatter brain when it comes to this sort of thing, and they helped me to feel like I really knew what was going on and how to stay on top of things.

We knew we had given Brice everything but he insisted we didn't and gave us instructions on who to call and if we didn't get the information he would just file our taxes and we could do an amended later. When we received our mail when we returned home there was another document so we called and told the assistant what we received and he said that was not the needed our 1099-R's, kept going on and on until my husband finally told him he would call him back because he was "disgusting" him at that time. I found the copies of our 1099-R's and we took them and the papers we received in the mail down to their office today and we were , IN A NASTY MANNER BY BRICE, THE OWNER THAT THEY WOULD NO LONGER BE DOING OUR TAXES BECAUSE OF WHAT MY HUSBAND SAID TO KALEB!
