I worked with Tim and his team over the course of two years. It became increasingly clear that his…read moreteam was unable to handle the complexity given their forgetfulness and lack of communication. I'd often have to ask a question two or three times to get a complete answer. I have an accounting/finance background and know what I am asking. In the second year, I asked them if they could handle the bookkeeping for my business and they accepted the responsibility. They claimed knowledge of the nuances of my business but it soon became apparent that they did not know anything about it. Then one fine day, they charged me $2100 for the bookkeeping (w/o a detailed invoice) and when I objected, they hurriedly gave me a $1400 discount. As soon as the check cleared, they sent me an email that they do not want to work with me anymore. No courtesy call, no explanation. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise because I found an accounting practice that actually knows accounting and more importantly, exudes humility and professionalism.

Melissa demonstrated a thorough understanding of my tax situation and had no problem filing my father's taxes in another state. She and Brittney did a great job for me and were also able to meet a critical deadline which required that my father's tax return be completed before the end of February. Everyone I've interacted with at Apple Blossom Tax Service (Dominique, Candy, Brittney, and Melissa) have always been very communicative, sharp-minded, pleasant, helpful, and conscientious. Melissa has given me some much needed and appreciated tax advice.

We went to Randy after our previous CPA of many years retired. He did our taxes for a few years…read moreand, not paying much attention (busy professionals as we are), we later found out that many of the deductions we should have been taking were not being applied to our taxes. This year we spoke with several other CPAs, all of whom confirmed this for us. We decided to pay a second CPA to prepare our taxes this year after asking Randy if he could apply the deductions for us. Although the cost of paying two CPAs was not insignificant, our savings still exceeded the added expense. Nevertheless, Randy was surprisingly angry and rude when we gently told him we would be using a different tax preparer. Later, his online payment system went down. He notified us that we would have to pay him with a paper check this year. And so we wrote and mailed the check to him. Very shortly thereafter, apparently not having received the check, Randy went straight to threatening us with small claims court over the "late payment". In our process of asking around about tax advice we heard from a number of people that they too had either directly or indirectly found Randy to be angry, vindictive, and to have been inflexible with their tax preparation. Ordinarily, we would not wish to spread negative vibes on the internet, but having received numerous threatening communications from someone we have paid to do work we ended up not using, we felt we should caution others in our community.
