KIRK IS THE BEST! I was super stressed as I worked in multiple states over the course of three years and didn't file in those three years. My previous tax guy got me audited by the IRS and I was terrified of going through the process again and trusting another accountant to help me. Kirk got it done and put my worried soul at ease. He is great at his and even better at being a human being. EVERYONE GET YOUR TAXES DONE BY KIRK! :-) read more

Best financial management service out there! Very warm and professional! Service is top notch.

Amazing !! Love Jackie Folk! Been with them for almost 20 years . They are so efficient .

I found Derek thanks to my fellow Yelpers. It was actually quit a challenge considering the fact that there was a lot of options to sort thru. But in the end, I decided to go w someone without any negative reviews figuring that would be my best bet. So I called and got a lot of useful information from Derek without him even offering me any service. Honestly with all the information he provided I felt like I can actually do it myself. But due to the fact that I'm actually doing this for my aunt, I decided not to take any chances and let an honest professional do it is probably much better then me doing it lol. Plus the price he quoted was more then reasonable so here we go. After going through all the information I needed, he asked me to email him the info I had along with my number and he will call me back. That my friend was on Friday. By Monday when he still hasn't called, I thought maybe he didn't receive my email. So I called and he was in a meeting but the receptionist confirmed that he did receive my email and he will call me back after his meeting. It is now Tuesday and he still has not yet returned my call. I'm not sure if my case is just not attractive enough for attention or maybe it's just too much work but how unprofessional. Seriously now i wished he would of just turned down my case so I could find someone else that's capable. One extra star for the free well informed consultation but I'm so confused on why you don't call or email your potential customer back :( read more

Went to Williams Tax & Financial today for the first time and am glad I did. I happened to randomly Yelp this place and made an appointment. I worked with Mr. Derek Folk which we happened to coincidentally have met in passing a few times elsewhere. Derek is a knowledgeable tax professional AND all around awesome guy. He provided helpful advice from the moment I called and was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. Not only did he provide excellent advice, but also helped me clear up any confusion and mystery around how to properly handle my taxes going forward while maximizing any applicable deductions. Extremely helpful on so many levels. I highly recommend calling and asking for Derek Folk. The man knows his shit and can help you with whatever tax services/advice you may need. The cherry on top is that it's a black owned business....which honestly can be rare nowadays. Fantastic service, by fantastic people. Call 'em ASAP! WAKANDA FOREVER! read more

If I could give them negative stars I would. It took over 4 months to make an appointment then once we had the appointment they never actually filed the taxes. After 3 months of trying to get a hold of someone we had to take our taxes to somewhere else because we could not get anyone to call, or we mail us back. Worst customer service I have seen in a very long time. read more

Kirkland is the best and he's really funny! Very nice office with a professional staff.

(The review below is to be read in your best "Morgan Freeman" or "Dramatic Movie Guy" voice.) "Serendipity" Definition, the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way. Words you would never associate with accountants or tax preparation...(dramatic pause)...until now. (Okay you can read in your own voice now.) By chance, (actually more like, by algorithm) I found Williams Tax Inc on...wait for it "Yelp" and I'm extremely glad I did. Derek Folk is extremely knowledgeable and prepared my taxes quickly with a friendly and personal approach. He was even able to get me a small refund. It was one of the best tax experiences I've had in years. That's why the entire experience can be summed up in one word, Serendipitous. read more

I'm writing this review because if I could have, I would have given this company 10 stars! I've had the same person taking care of my financials for the past 7 years so of course I was a little reluctant when it came to finding someone new. Williams is a bit above what one would consider the average rate for services however this company is worth EVERY penny! I'd rather have my financials done correctly than to save a few pennies and end up in a mess. I met with Derek Folk and from the time I walked in, he was so kind and warm. He got down to business and he even gave me some crucial advice for moving forward. I would advise anyone who's in entertainment and/or media to seek assistance from a company like this one that specializes in what we do and knows the ins and outs of the business. I'm happy I went to Williams and I will continue going to them from now on. If you need help with industry biz financials, Derek is the man for that job! read more
