My family has been doing their ersonal and business accounting with him since 2003. This year I consulted with them and paid them to do my business taxes and they took a lot of money to "change a business title" WHICH THEY SPELLED THE NAME OF MY BUSINESS COMPLWTELY INCORRECT, then claim they need more money to change something else (which made no sense) then they went ahead and make some unauthorized and illegal changes and when I found out, I respectfully emailed them asking them why they did that and NOT ONE CALL OR EMAIL RETURNED! Finally, the secretary became the middle man and would email all the back and forth emails by calling Mike and asking him how to answer and sending it from her email!!!!!! Why couldn't Mike and Josephine do this themselves!? Instead, they hid behind a secretary and forced her to do it! She repeatedly told me "I'm sorry ma'am I am just doing what they ask I don't understand any of it". After 3 months, it took one of my family members to reach through to them for them to say they can't work with me anymore because I accused them... well...THEY WERE RIGHTFULLY ACCUSED!!! THE PROOF IS IN THE GOVERNEMENT DOCUMENTS!!! They could have the decency to tell me this in advance so I can find another accountant in time before taxes are due!!!!!! They also told that family member in order to work with them they need $300 upfront or Mike will not allow them to return calls or emails or work with them! SUCH A PENNY PINCHER! The truth about them wanting to stop working with me is that he realized I can sue him for what he has done so he decided to go MIA thinking I cant sue him, but the lawsuit is definitely coming his way for the money he took and didn't do anything but mess with my business with fake legal documents he made! THEY ARE VERY UNPROFESSIONAL FOR NOT SPEAKING TO THEIR CLIENTS DIRECTLY TO TRY AND RECITFY THE SITUATION AND SOLVE THE PROBLEM!! If you own a successful business and don't want anyone to mess up your taxes or documents then DO NOT GO TO THEM!!

Subject: Formal Complaint Against CPA Justin Kim…read more Dear California State Board of Accountancy, I am filing a formal complaint against CPA Justin Kim regarding unethical and potentially illegal business practices. I have used Justin Kim's services for my 2022 and 2023 tax filings, during which I always paid in cash. However, despite making these cash payments, I never received a receipt. In April 2024, Justin Kim did my personal tax filing and my first LLC tax filing. Justin Kim informed me that the LLC tax filing deadline was March 15 but stated that the first filing would be waived. For both my personal and LLC tax filings, Justin Kim charged original $1,000 for LLC Filing fee but i did personal and llc together so he gave me discount (or possibly $950 or $800 in cash, according to my memory). Additionally, I paid $800 for the Franchise Tax Board fee, making my total payment either $1,600 or $1,750, all in cash. Although I felt uncomfortable handing over such a large amount, I trusted him since this was my second year using his services. Again, I did not receive a receipt. This year, in 2025, I decided to switch CPAs due to high llc filing fees. My new CPA successfully completed my personal and LLC tax filings, as well as the Franchise Board $800 payment, through online transactions. However, upon reviewing my bank statement a week later, I noticed that my bank had processed three separate transactions: $800, $800, and $80. When I contacted my new CPA, they informed me that my 2024 $800 Franchise Tax Board payment had not been made. Shocked by this, I immediately reached out to Justin Kim. When I asked about the missing payment, he denied ever receiving the $800 and, instead of addressing my concerns, became agitated and abruptly ended the call. Following this, I sent three emails requesting receipts for the cash payments I made over the past two years, stating that if I did not receive them within 48 hours, I would file an official complaint. However, he has ignored all my requests. Even if I am unable to recover the missing $800, I believe that a CPA should operate with honesty and transparency when handling financial transactions. Accepting cash payments without issuing receipts is unethical and illegal. Given these circumstances, I cannot trust Justin Kim with any financial matters, nor should others fall victim to the same situation. For these reasons, I am formally reporting Justin Kim to prevent further harm to other individuals, particularly within the Korean business community, where cash transactions are commonly used. I hope that appropriate action will be taken to address this matter. Sincerely, Edward Park
