My late husband and I have used Thompson Greenspon for our personal tax returns for at least 15…read moreyears now, and we have been extremely happy with their services. My husband was financially savvy, and I was happy to leave management of the family finances to him. But after his death, I needed a great deal of help from my Thompson Greenspon accountant - and I got it! I will always be grateful to them for their patience in helping me through that difficult time. Now in my old age, I again need extra assistance from time to time; Thompson Greenspon always provides it. These are not only excellent accountants, they are great people.

This office shouldn't exist. No one there is qualified. It's a joke. Say one thing and do another. Don't pay cash they lose and forget your payment. And make sure you quote them on what they offer. More often than not they deny and have no clue. The only thing they know is when your payment is due. I know auto insurance is a scam but this is another level of mix negligence and stupidly and you get Itzabel Mayrant State Farm insurance 0 Stars ! Please save your self the time and trouble.

I called in in need of my payroll taxes reduced as I knew I was paying too much per paycheck. I was booked for an appointment super quick., Madina realized I'm in Maryland and opted to do a virtual meeting. She actually gave me a great discount and the price was way below what I thought I would pay. They advised it would be $55 for 15 mins. They stuck to exactly what they promised. In addition, I had quite a few follow-up questions and some adjustments had to be made after my initial virtual meeting. They didn't inconvenience me by making me meet again, Madina got things taken care of and only called me to advise that my questions were resolved. She offered to meet again for free if I wanted to speak to the CPA again. I was not ever charged for additional work or time to re-review the questions I had. They fixed every single concern/issue. My payroll taxes are now reduced. I'm thrilled and grateful for the outcome of using this CPA company.The best part, Madina did it with the most gracious and kind attitude. Kindness is for sure her super power. I would recommend this company 10 times over! If you're thinking about using this company, reach out to Madina!!! She will get you taken care of promptly, kindly, and handle all of your needs/concerns without missing a beat.

During my first appointment with Make my Day I was met initially with an the CPA's assistant who…read moretook all my forms (which they had asked for) and talked to me for some time. This was weird because over the phone the appointment was said to be made with the CPA herself. So just be sure when you make an appointment that you know who it's with and what will occur. The assistant after looking at all my tax papers gave me a quote for $350- 375, then a quote for $450- 475, then a quote for $550- 575, then was told that I would you would need to charge by the hour to look at one thing. I'm a small business owner, and they advertise specializing in small bushiness, so I'm not really understanding that why I would need to pay her to research something like that. For each increase in price I was told that it was because she didn't notice that my taxes would require "additional work" in certain areas. She gave me the first quote after looking at all of my papers and no new information was provided the first quote to the then open ended quote of apparently I'm guessing $550 + hourly, but we don't know how many hours? Not a great way to run a business in my opinion. I liked the CPA but when it comes down to it they're going to have to run their business like a business- they can't increase the price 4 times during a meeting. They should be able to read the forms, ask some questions, give an estimate. (Edit: I don't have a ton of "issues" as the buisness owner below says, I'm just a small business owner. In fact the first increase was because "they didn't know they needed a schedule c" even I know that and I wasn't pressuring them for a quick estimate, I was happy to answer any questions). Also, the office setting is not professional. It has a really bare bones feeling. We met in the lobby (I would a private setting) and sofa was super uncomfortable, painfully so. They say that people can come in and DIY taxes with someone helping to answer questions but the little cubicles were totally empty while I was in the office- probably because this DIY area had absolutely nothing to offer- they didn't even have coffee! How can someone focus on taxes without coffee!!? (Edit: yes I brought the end of my coffee at first but did need more and didn't know they had any- I couldn't see it, I did look for it).

Karan Malhotra at Agog Financials is fantastic! He is friendly, efficient, professional, prompt,…read morepatient, straightforward, and very easy to work with. He actually makes filing taxes and discussing financial concerns a pleasant experience, which we did not think was possible. Whenever my husband and I have had questions, Karan has offered sound and timely guidance, has been to the point, and is very knowledgeable. Technology wise, this couldn't have been any easier - quick email responses, a shared Google Drive folder for all your paperwork, and virtual consults, if needed. Having used other tax firms in the past, I can also say that the pricing here is more than fair. I'd highly recommend Karan and his team for your tax and accounting needs.

Please do not reach out to or count on this firm. We worked with Steven for two years without…read moreincident - I wouldn't say he did a great job or was particularly communicative but our taxes always got filed and we aren't aware of errors. However this past year he dodged my emails/phone calls, my husband's emails/phone calls, and my elderly mother's emails/phone calls (we all file separately). He once picked up the phone and then pretended to be someone else when he realized I was calling for an update on my taxes. He lied to us about filing for an extension and took forms from my mother that he never returned. Ultimately he stopped replying entirely and we had to look for a new accountant, several months after the filing deadline. I just got a notice that I owe several thousand dollars in late filing fees because it turns out he also lied about getting an extension. I don't know what is going on and while I wish Steven no ill will, please do not work with this firm or him. I don't want this to happen to anyone else.

Update 2/13: A partner at Capitol CPA reached out to me to apologize for the situation and explain…read morewhat happened. I was more than satisfied with their explanation and eagerness to earn my business and trust. I've taken them up on the offer to work with them so have updated the review initially and provide a final review once completed. ______________________________ Let me say the reason I reached out to Capitol CPA is because of their excellent reviews and they were my first pick. However, it's difficult to go with a company or trust them with your taxes when they can't even respond to you in a timely manner or at all. Let me detail my experience below: December 16, 2019: Send an inquiry through their website asking about availability for new clients. Receive a response from Steven that they're currently evaluating their capacity and will get back to me in a week. I respond immediately asking if I should follow up in a week or if they'll let me know? *CRICKETS* December 26, 2019: Ask for an update. Hear nothing, follow up with an inquiry through their website December 31, 2019: Receive a response from Steven apologizing for letting this slip through the cracks. They have room for new clients and ask for information. I respond an hour later with the information. *CRICKETS* January 19, 2019: Another follow up. Ask for an update. *CRICKETS* January 31, 2019: I give up. I reached out to three other companies and they immediately responded, asked for my tax information which I provided, and... immediately responded. So thank you Capitol CPA for wasting my time.

Sorry to bother you Mitch! I paid him over $1000 to prepare my brothers 2023 taxes and the IRS still hasn't processed them. Mitch won't return my emails. All I can say is DO NOT do business with this man. He is unkind, unprofessional, and expensive. Virginia you can do better.

(I am a pretty accomplished attorney, so this wasn't an issue of me asking things like, "What are taxes?" or "What is money?") Then, out of the blue, I got an email from their admin telling me they had a staff shortage and were jettisoning clients - including me. It didn't actually matter, since I had no intention of returning, but it's not a great way to do business. I know they have past good reviews, but I would heed the staff shortage and the curt piss-off email as a warning and look somewhere else for your tax needs.
