Listen. I don't know where you're at in your search for a CPA, but I can only hope you're researching various tax preparers and stumbled across Wendy's Yelp reviews prior to soliciting her services. If, by chance, you're looking at this after the fact, oh man, I'm so sorry.
Wendy Smith is an incompetent, argumentative shrew, who defies the stereotype of an "accountant" by completely lacking an attention to detail. One small example: She misspelled "Cincinnati" on my return. Wow.
