Do you like big surprises and really hard spankings? Do you enjoy confusion and humiliation? Are…read moreyou looking for someone to judge you and then send you a really big bill? Then Teena Takata is your new accountant! My experience with Teena was special right from the beginning. She dismissed all my questions by telling me she "doesn't keep that information in her head" and would charge me to look it up ("What's the income limit for a married couple to have a Roth IRA?"), or to go ask a lawyer. That was when she answered my questions at all. Twice, I asked her to estimate our tax bill with plenty of time before taxes were due... she didn't. Then, on April 14 at 7:00 PM, we got a text message to "write a check to the IRS" for almost $20K. I love surprises! Especially when I get to scramble to put a large sum together overnight, that's the peak of life experience! Most of my emails were answered with wonderful jabs at my intelligence without actually providing an answer, creating more emails, more questions and a higher bill. We got a bill for almost $6,000 for that year's tax prep! Super great! We had so many enlightening experiences with Teena, I particularly liked hearing about my character flaws throughout all that, so helpful. Teena Takata is awesome! For a fun, expensive tax time and truly excellent, professional-quality humiliation, there's no better accountant than Teena.

I strongly advice against engaging this firm for any tax help. One of their employees having…read morereceived all the information from me, nearly 2 years ago, is yet to get back to me with an official response in spite of many e-mail assuring that she has been talking to IRS. I have an e-mail chain that clearly shows how negligent they are in providing services they promise to provide!. My repeated requests to return the papers that was given to them for tax exemption filing has not happened either. Due to their negligence my organization ceased to receive tax deductible donations for two years. This has caused disruption to the services we were providing to the poor and needy students. My next course appears to be a legal route . Please stay away from these guys and avoid unnecessary distress and anxiety. K. N. Murthy

The folks at Winther & Co. have handled my taxes for over 8 years and most recently I had the pleasure of working with Michelle who turned out to be as knowledgeable as I have come to expect from Neils. Michelle is friendly, patient and professional. Britney answered my schedule request sent via WintherCPA.com and helped gather all my old records and arranged my appointment via multiple emails. I have yet to meet one single grouch at their office. I enjoy having my taxes done about as much as I enjoy a root canal but the people at Winther & Company make it nearly painless. One thing really touched me as I was leaving my most recent long overdue appointment; Neils was leaving for the day and after the usual small talk he says, "Welcome Home", and I have to say that they have always been so kind and compassionate that it is like having family taking care of my CPA needs. I highly recommend Winther & Company, Inc. for anyone looking for a good CPA. Good help is hard to find but look no further for your CPA needs than Winther & Company, Inc.

They always filed an extension even though his taxes were not that complicated. My accountant is able to get a more complicated return done in a timely manner. When he passed away they took over a year to finish his tax return. Every time I called they said it would be done in a month or so, but it was not. While they didn't mind keeping us waiting, they were not about to wait for their money. They do not send the return until they have received their payment in full. Not happy with them at all.
