I knew Pam and she prepared my taxes at Frank's office in Norcross for years, then she licensed and went to work for McHugh and I followed her. Pam has always done a great job and I trust her and she is very knowledgeable and highly recommend her and McHugh CPA Group. They always take initiative and email me to remind me when taxes are due or tell me if I need to file an extension and make suggestion on ways to save money or better way of doing things that works within the tax law. I trust them.

We had been using these guys for years, and for the first few, it was fine. Over the last year, it…read morehas been TERRIBLE. In just the last few months, their online timecard system (that they charge extra for) kept applying hours to the wrong people, and we had to fix it every week, until we cancelled it. One pay period, they paid everyone TWICE... and then tried to blame us for it, which isn't even possible, because their system locks you in after hitting submit. I had to literally argue with people for over an hour, to get them to return the money. Then, a couple weeks ago, the checks didn't arrive, and when I called they said the currier would be back on Monday (checks were due that day), so we had to drive over and get new checks for everyone... and I am glad we did, as the currier didn't come back for another WEEK! Now, this week, we submitted the payroll a day early (yesterday), and today they said we never submitted it, which they charge a penalty for submitting late. Now, while all of these things are terrible, the people make it worse. Every time there was an issue, the people on the phone argued with us about it, blamed us for not knowing how to do it (despite that we had done it every two weeks for years). And even after today's disaster, it went all the way up to some director, who started off very nice.... and then suddenly became just as combative as the others. An hour later, I got a call from another guy, who basically told me that it wasn't their fault, and I told him we were switching our multiple locations to SurePay. SurePay has been handling our California locations without issues, and now they will be handling the ones here. AVOID! UPDATE! The next morning, after we cancelled business with them over the issues, my business suddenly had a 1 star review, from a non-customer, who just happened to post a 5-star review of Corporate Payroll Services, at the exact same time.

They give me the security I need with timely tax deposits and accurate payroll checks. Payroll and taxes are headaches taken away by CPS that is definitely worth their reasonable fees. I highly recommend them to service any business no matter how small or large. They've got your back.

Ellison Insurance Agency is the reason I'm writing this review…read more After Mercury Insurance canceled my homeowners policy in error--based on a low-resolution satellite image with red circles and no context--I asked Wayne Ellison, my independent agent, to connect me with someone at Mercury who could explain the decision. That never happened. Instead, Wayne told me that he was the only person I could talk to, and that any communication with the carrier had to go through him. Yet he later sent me a letter from a Mercury representative that included her name and email address. Naturally, I reached out to her directly. Shortly after that, Wayne called me after hours and chastised me over the phone for sending that email. I recorded the call. His tone wasn't professional--it was condescending. I was spoken to as if I had done something wrong by contacting someone about my own policy. I was never disrespectful. I simply wanted answers about why my coverage had been canceled and who had the authority to reinstate it. To this day, I have not been given clear documentation of who made those decisions or why. If you're considering Ellison Insurance Agency, ask yourself this: if something goes wrong, do you want an agent who limits your access, controls the flow of information, and reprimands you for advocating for your own home? Because that's exactly what happened to me.

I would never recommend them. Yesterday I needed them to send my documents for refinancing and…read moreWayne said that I HAD to renew my AAA membership for him to be able to send ... I have a company car- I don't need to pay for that. I told him that. He got very irritated and raised his voice saying I wasn't understanding and he wasn't going to send my documents unless I paid my renewal so I told him I would cancel. Today he sent the documents but also added the fee for AAA membership that I said I wasn't going to renew. He also emailed me "apologizing " and saying that if I didn't admit that it was my fault just as much as his that he would cancel my policy right then- which is NOT legal. I told him to hold until new policy started and I would let him know when that was.. he then emailed saying it was cancelled... and I did not give him approval!!!!! That is illegal!!! Do not use this agency! Absolutely worst costumer service !!!!

I contacted Mr. IBraheem's office in March 2024 for my tax return filing. Upon Mr. IBraheem's…read morerecommendation, instead of filing as an LLC as I had done for years, I filed as an S-Corp. After the filing, I got a letter from the IRS informing me that they had issued my business a new EIN because of the change in our filing. In July 2024, I contacted Mr. IBraheem because I needed two financial statements as part of a loan approval. I also told him of the difficulty the new EIN was causing with the loan process. He told me that the new number should not have been issued and offered to help me get it resolved. I paid for the financial statements and made the decision to sign up for the accounting services for $300/month. In August 2024, I asked for Mr. IBraheem's assistance with the EIN issue. I was asked to send the IRS letter again. I sent it again. I was told the fee would be $250 for this service which I paid. In September 2024, I asked if there was any update and was told to check back next week because they were busy. I called and was told someone would get back to me. In October 2024, I asked if there was any update and was told that they are "tied up" and someone would get back to me. I called again and was told someone would get back to me. A few months passed, and on Saturday March 15, 2024 we met in person with Mr. IBraheem for our tax filing. I was surprised when he had no idea what I was talking about when I again asked about an update on the EIN issue. Once again Mr. IBraheem told me he would check into it and get back to me. During the course of our tax meeting, I mentioned that I had been sending my statements each month, but had not seen any reports. Mr. IBraheem then told me that monthly reports are not included with the $300/month accounting service. Only a yearly report is included. I asked Mr. IBraheem if he would please send me a list of what accounting services are included in the monthly fee. On Friday March 21, 2025 I again asked for an EIN update. I also asked for the 2024 yearly reports that Mr. IBraheem said were part of his $300/month fee. I was told I would receive them by April 25th...FOUR MONTHS into the new year. I also asked what accounting services are included in his $300/month fee. Again, I did not get an answer. On Monday March 24, 2025 after not receiving an answer to my accounting fee query, I requested that Mr. IBraheem please cancel the accounting services. I told him it was because I did not see the value of paying what equals $3600/yr for one yearly report. A report that I don't receive until April of the new year. On Monday March 26, 2025, Mr. IBraheem's office called. I was expecting an update on the EIN issue and possibly a more clear understanding of what accounting services his fees cover. Instead, it was someone from his office calling to request payment for the tax filing invoice. I told them that I am happy to pay the tax filing invoice if someone could please give me an update on the EIN issue and send me a listing of accounting services included in the $300/month fee. I was told that Mr. IBraheem would get back to me. On Saturday March 29, 2025 Mr. IBraheem emailed me to say that the reason nothing has been done with my EIN request is because his office never received payment. I asked Mr. IBraheem to please check his records because I did pay. After not hearing anything back, I had to stop my normal workload to get on my computer to sift through my records and send him proof that payment had been made. After being shown the error, not once did Mr. IBraheem, nor anyone in his office apologize. No one offered me an explanation for the delay either. To resolve the EIN issue, Mr. IBraheem said I would need to sign a POA. I told him that before I authorized him to act on my behalf with the IRS, to please tell me what specific steps he would be taking, so that I could get a general idea of what the process looks like. And again, I asked what services would be included with the fees for accounting and the EIN fix. Mr. IBraheem did not answer my question about the EIN fix, and rudely told me that the $300/month fee covers accounting services which he typed in bold letters. Clearly frustrated with me for asking the questions. When I pressed him on this further, he said that he has been in business 24 years and he will not change how he communicates with clients. He then refused to file my 2024 tax return and also refused to help sort out the EIN mess with the IRS that his advice helped create. So now as a result, I have to scramble around to find another CPA to file my taxes and unravel the mess Mr. IBraheem helped create. In one year, I spent over $5k for poor communication and a yearly report. Unfortunately, Mr. IBraheem seems to prioritize collecting his fees above delivering customer service. And because of it, I'm left with an expensive mess to clean up.
