Though I had many recommendations and referrals for other accountants, I chose to work with Rose because I chose to specifically support a woman and minority owned business. One piece of advice from Erin Benzakein from Floret about hiring a bookkeeper and accountant was that if you feel dumb or awful after meeting with either, then it's time for you to hire a new accountant/bookkeeper. I was having a hard time managing my own bookkeeping and was inquiring about this service. I met with Tara and she was condescending, defensive, and was gaslighting me when I started crying on the call after she went on a diatribe about the importance of bookkeeping. I also disagreed with her statement that "Bookkeeping is the backbone of your business." Unfortunately, Rose was also on the call and there wasn't any intervention. I would recommend Rose Brown only if you were just working with her and Darin, but would stay away if you are on a call with Tara.

This year I did not receive a letter, and when I Googled them I saw that their website shows that they are providers of educational tax seminars. If they changed their business that's fine, but as a long time client I would have appreciated being notified that I would need to go elsewhere to have my taxes done. That's why I can only give one star.

Outstanding Service…read more My husband, John and I have been using KMS to do our taxes for the past 20yrs. Rich Strauss, our tax accountant, is a highly trustworthy and ethical business man. He is a savvy accountant and he stays abreast of all of the tax changes happening each year. The office sends out notifications throughout the year reminding you of the more significant changes that will impact you favorably or negatively so you are not surprised come tax time. But if you happened to miss an update there is no doubt Rich will be reminding you when you meet. At our annual appointments Rich is patient, and answers all of our questions thoroughly or commits to finding out the answers he may not know. We leave at ease knowing that Rich and his team are doing our taxes and that his first concern is to make sure they are done right, and that he is minimizing our payout. If you are looking for a new tax accountant I highly recommend KMS.

A friend who temps at Block recommended one of the women in her office. I gave Block 2 stars only…read morebecause the woman was competent and pleasant, but my general experience with Block would have not been one star. For one thing, they chose this year to roll out a new procedure at the office I went to. It's entirely on line. You are expected to summarize your data (income, deductions, etc.), and to scan and upload all relevant documents (like 1099s). Basically, you do their work for them. (No clue if this results in a smaller fee.) If you are the type who likes to bring a box of receipts and documents to a tax preparer and to go over everything, you won't like this new procedure. After everything is uploaded, an "assistant" of some sort looks over everything and you will have a phone conversation with him to see if anything else is still needed. (But NO advice as to accuracy.) (The new system supports a smart phone, so if you have one and know how to use it, you can take pictures of all relevant data and then upload it. If you can't use a smart phone, you can use a PC. If you can't do either, you can take everything to the Block office and one of the minions will scan and upload for you. I have no idea if they charge for that.) I had everything relevant, including the conversation with the "assistant," scanned and uploaded a full month early. And heard nothing until April 14 when, in response to a "where are we?" email, my advisor called to ask me if she could file for an extension because she never completed my return. (And I was due a refund which now I have no idea if I'll ever see.) There is a $99 charge for filing for an extension, which she claimed would be refunded. (We'll see.) So I can't tell you if their charges are reasonable. I can tell you that if you cooperate and give them your data well in advance and they still can't file on time, that ought to be unacceptable for a tax preparer.

In December 2024 state gave notice of underpayment for a previous year. They charged interest and gave us less than month deadline to pay. We told H &R BLOCK. THey said to pay and then peace of mind would research. We paid what hnr block said we were supposed to. Months later we gad to follow up with H R block heard nothing. They said give state more time to reply. Again hear nothing and told it will be escalated . September 2025 is now approaching and I am still sending inquiries about getting our money back via peace of mind. Not what I was expecting to get for paying for guarantee.
