Do NOT use this tax preparer…read more My main complaint is incompetence and rudeness. I would not recommend her to anyone who expects their taxes to be completed and filed on time. She repeatedly promised to get the job done but failed to deliver. Our tax returns were filed late every year we used her services. What made the experience even more frustrating was that if we contacted her to ask when our taxes would be completed, we were billed for the email or phone call. I felt this was never clearly disclosed upfront. Overall, I found her communication, reliability, and follow-through to be very disappointing. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend her services.
