I don't normally post negative reviews, but I have to for this business…read more 1) they made an error on my state (MD) return. They calculated that I would get a return of $308. When the state processed my tax paperwork the state calculated that I actually owed $246.31. Depalantino made an error of over $550! 2) when I inquired with Depalantino about this error their response was "we will get back to you." They did not. I paid the state, and never even got so much as an apology from Depalantino. 3) three months later (July) I got a "payment past due" notice for their tax preparation fee ($280). When I reviewed my Discover Card account I confirmed that I had actually paid them the $280 only five days after they initially billed me in April. Summary: error on tax preparation, failure at customer service, and they can't even keep track of their own finances.

Whatever you do, stay away from John Cataldo and associates. He makes a living off the fact most…read morephysicians and dentists don t know anything about running their businesses and then cons them for unnecessary services while refusing to divulge what he is doing and how much it will cost. Then when you call him in on it he yells and threatens. Case in point, I just got charged $600 for two phone calls! My attorney, who is quite pricey, doesn't even charge that much. My bill with John YTD is almost $5,000 dollars just for filing my taxes. When we told John we got a letter from the IRS that he was off by $14,000 (!!!!) in the IRS s favor on our returns he told us to just ignore it. My wife had to handle the issue because John couldn t be bothered. We asked John to give us an estimate before providing services and he refused. Then he hires his daughter and she gets put in charge of my account. What are her qualifications? What is her experience? We get told not to ask. The first thing she does is completely reconfigure my chart of accounts. With no notice and no explanation. It was fine for last year and fine for John for the first 11 months of this year. Now suddenly it has to be completely revamped for no reason. And I get billed for it. John was asked to provide notice and reasons for services, not to just do something and charge us for it. John's response was he does what he wants and anyone who doesn't like it can leave. When John was told this was unprofessional he just exploded and hung up the phone. This guy is predatory. Lots of others with similar experiences. Stay away! ****Just an update on John P Cataldo. After publicizing Mr. Cataldo's unethical and unprofessional behavior, he has resorted to sending me harassing emails, calling me names and even making veiled threats of physical violence against me and members of my family. And I quote: "I will be dealing with you.". I have reported him to the police. In this day and age you just can't be too careful when someone starts making threats!!

The Law firm of Rubin and Badame is an awesome awesome law firm!! You cannot get better service, attorneys, paralegal teams, and people anywhere else!!

Paul Badame represented me through the SSD process that lasted two full years. The process was…read moreunexpectedly extended due to COVID-19. My case was initially denied & appealed with a hearing. In the SSD world, a denial with an appeal is usually expected unless there's an automatic diagnosis. Paul & his associates have always remained attentive towards my questions/concerns during these 24 months. Paul is an experienced professional, but one that carries a humane & empathetic personality (this is rare to come by in the legal world). He remained confident & secure during any challenges that the case was faced with. The final decision was an approval of benefits. I highly, highly recommend this team to anyone desiring SSD representation.

After we paid the tax and filed the return, the estate attorney and our financial advisor looked over the return and were appalled with the manner in which Mr. LaSorsa completed the tax return. I emailed Mr. LaSorsa several times about it, and he didn't answer my emails. When I was finally able to get him on the phone to ask him about the manner in which he prepared the return, he was very condescending and insulting to me.
