Report
I hired this firm to prepare my 2020 taxes and they completely messes up on some of the basic elements of the prep and filing, costing me personally a significant amount of money and putting me at risk of being flagged for an audit. For example, upon written request and confirmation from them that the payments would not be made until May 17th 2020, I found tens of thousands of dollars pulled from my account one month earlier in April.
