Horrible CPA! I first started with Travis a few years ago and initially he was nice and…read morecommunicative but the last two years he's done my taxes he's been sloppy, lazy and failed to respond. This last year he didn't even give me my taxes until the day before the deadline to pay even though I had been emailing and admin about them. When I told him I had questions and I didn't want them filed a certain way he told me it was too late and I would have to pay anyways, even if I wanted to file an extension. Now I'm out $12,000 because he filed the wrong way and refuses to correct them. He either won't respond to emails or give nothing but excuses. If you care about having someone who's concerned about your best interest stay far away from this person.

Working with Travis has been a wonderful experience. The first thing he did was to find a huge…read moremistake on our last years taxes filed with HR Block.

Ike I. ran this business for many years, then retired and sold the business to Dakhil. Dakhil is…read moreincompetent and a crook. He botched the filing of my tax returns, causing me to be charged thousands of dollars in penalty and interest. This happened because of an error made by Dakhil in the way that he filed my tax returns. His error caused me to be charged thousands of dollars in penalty and interest. Any respectable accountant who makes a mistake like that will take responsibility for it. This crook refused to take any responsibility. I'm updating my review to respond to a lie told by Dakhil, specifically that my tax return was "dropped off". This is a lie. I have 2 letters from Dakhil, both dated March 4, 2022. In one letter he says that he is electronically filing my tax return with the IRS, and in the other letter he says that he is electronically filing my tax return with the FTB. I paid Dakhil to prepare and electronically file my tax returns and he botched the filing of the returns. Because of his incompetence I was charged thousands of dollars in penalty and interest. In conclusion, Dakhil is incompetent, a crook, and a liar. Obviously you don't want to do business with this crook.
