I have been dealing with a mistake on my tax bill for almost 3 months by now. I called Assessor's…read moreOffice many times stating January. Receptionists were always super friendly and nice, but you need to talk to a customer services representative in order to get an answer. You always have to go through a receptionist first. But even when you get to customer services, it can be tricky. Even though they keep a record of all your calls and requests in the system, it is challenging to get the info on the phone, especially if you are talking to different people every time and have to start your story from the beginning of times.... So today, after talking to a receptionist again, I decided to go to the office and talk to an actual person. Only one person, not 5 or 10. I didn't expect much. I was ready to be sent from one department to another on different floors. So I put on my comfortable tennis shoes on and off I go. To my surprise, I was the only one in the line. I was talking to Customer Services within 5 minutes. Prior to this visit, I had a consultation with an attorney. According to him, mistake was made by Assessor's Office. Turns out, he was wrong. I was assisted by Darlene Lamkin who showed me all documentation, confirming that mistake came from Tax Committee in Baton Rouge. She was very patient with me explaining how it happened, what I should do next and asking questions making sure I understood everything. She also mentioned, that everything has to be in writing to keep a paper trail and helped me to write a letter to Errol Williams, Assessor. Also, she gave me her direct number so I could call her if I had any questions. What a pleasant surprise. Thank you for you help!

One assessor. Wow what a difference…read more If you're a homeowner in New Orleans, you've dealt with the assessor's office. Honestly every experience I've had with them has been professional and easy. I KNOW a government office, who knew. When I bought my house, we were still under the old 7 assessor thing...which honestly was mostly confusing. Everything was paper based and staff scoffed when I asked about submitting anything via email or even fax. I let my homestead exemption go when I stopped living in the house I owned for a few years and when I needed it restored, it couldn't have been easier. I called the one assessor and they mailed me some documents and I sent them back. Easypeasy. FF to now, the housing prices in my 'hood have gone bezerk so my reassessment, which I knew was coming, was harsh. So I went in (open enrollment is July 15-August 15) spoke to a staff person with paperwork in hand and 30 minutes later had a small adjustment and they had the correct dimensions for my house. Whew. Also, I love that the database is all online, so I can find out who actually owns the houses around me. Good job!

I always did my own taxes.. Until 2012, which was so full of changes for me that I wasn't really…read moresure how to proceed. I figured I finally needed a tax professional to make sure I was doing everything correctly, but life was so busy I missed the April 15 deadline, probably partly because I felt so overwhelmed this year. Then I received a super scary letter from the IRS about a very large amount of money that I supposedly owed from 2011. And by the time I actually got around to opening the letter, (yeah it's been one of those years) the deadline was in three days. And it was Sunday. I called Miriam first thing Monday morning. She told me to come on in, no problem. She was calm, friendly, and instantly made me feel like it was all going to be ok. She finished all of my 2012 taxes in just a couple hours, navigating easily through what I would consider one tricky circumstance after another. I had expected to potentially owe money this year, but instead she found me a substantial refund! She solved the issue with 2011 the next day, filing an amended return to meet the deadline, despite the fact that she was booked that entire day! I imagine she must have worked a lot of overtime to help me out, it was so above and beyond, I was amazed. And for all of this she charged me a very reasonable fee, with no additional cost for the rush job. She figured out that I didn't actually owe anything, in fact she got me an additional refund! I can't say enough good things about my experience, basically Miriam took away all my stress and left me with a whole lot more money! Bottom line- I will never do my own taxes again, I will be going back to Miriam forever.

This year; however was different (in a bad way) and the only variable is that fact there is someone new working with him on our return. He submitted an invoice for an astronomical price...for the same type of return every year. He said it was because of increased computation fees and one out of state W2. Without going into detail, I will say our professional relationship ended today on a sour note due to tax preparation greed. When I questioned the charges and his reasoning/motives, he dropped us as clients. He then threatened to send us to collection, involve his lawyer and counter sue us if we sued him. We've already decided not to use his services anymore because of the discrepancy. Prior to this experience, we never had any issues with him but he has changed. As I've said, he was always solo and never shown such contempt but today he was in rare form and sadly I saw the true character of this once good guy. He NEVER told me he billed by the hour UNTIL I disputed those unscrupulous charges. This year was the first time hearing this $175 per hr rate.
