We've been going to this CPA for a few years now (never worked with Joe directly but have worked…read morewith many others), and each year I'm less and less impressed, so this past year will be our last with them. Communication has gone downhill. Asking for clarification and getting zero back, or truly waiting a month for a response. Asking for advice on taxes and getting no advice back, while owing more and more in taxes each year with still no advice from them. I've been paying them for what I can do on my own with the automated version of TurboTax. A bummer since our friend referred us, but may be they were better many years ago.

As a tech entrepreneur in Plano, I've relied on Hill Durnin CPAs for over 6 years, and they've…read moreconsistently exceeded my expectations. Steve and his team have been instrumental in navigating the complex tax landscape that comes with running a growing business while balancing personal finances. What sets Hill Durnin apart is their proactive approach. They don't just file your taxes; they're true strategic partners. Their monthly CPA plan has been a game-changer for my business, providing real-time insights that have helped me make smarter financial decisions year-round. They've saved me thousands annually through smart entity structuring and identifying deductions I would have missed.

As someone who values efficiency, I appreciate their embrace of technology. Their secure client portal and virtual meeting options save me time without sacrificing the personal touch. They're always responsive, whether I have a quick question or need to discuss a complex issue. What truly impresses me is how they seamlessly handle both my business and personal taxes. This integrated approach has given me peace of mind and freed up my time to focus on growing my company. If you're a business owner, busy professional, or recent transplant to the area dealing with multi-state tax issues, I can't recommend Hill Durnin enough. They have the expertise to handle complex situations and the personal attention that makes you feel like their most important client. In a sea of accountants, they stand out as true financial advisors who are invested in your long-term success.

They took the time to walk us through everything, answered all of our questions, and made the entire process feel stress-free.

We truly felt taken care of and would not hesitate to recommend Barg & Henson CPAs to anyone looking for a trustworthy and personable tax team.

Andy (owner) is an absolute nightmare of incompetence…read more Beware; Don (passed away) and Henson (sold partnership) the founders are no longer owners of this company. Andy admitted to me he has never filed mark to market 475(f) which created a misclassification of income costing me $100k+ in taxation of earned income that should have been tax deductible had he known what he was doing. He does not provide itemized billing so no clue what he's charging for and unethical billing practice in calculating invoice.. he guesses at what sounds best to him.. he bills for work he is unqualified to file then will claim "I have no fiduciary duty"--there is always a fiduciary duty to do what's in best interest of client especially when directed by client. He bills without scope of engagement then claims "work was not included in scope of engagement or I would have terminated contract". Mind you; he was terminated by me for his incompetence when he began back-stepping his liability.. He filed claim with his E&O insurance before I even hired my Attorney. They won't protect what's coming once I have calculated all damages to the penny. My tax attorney contacted IRS private letter ruling October in denial of late election relief due to monetary injury to govt by reclassification (another lie by Andy that I could go through courts--no such IRS courts as it's filed through filing PLR) stay away from Andy.

Whatever questions we have they patiently field and answer with good advice and we always appreciate their guidance. We had a personal business as well as our W-2 jobs and their help made all the filings very simple. They demonstrate lots of experience with any curveballs we have thrown their way. Their processes allow you to securely upload tax documents at your convenience and then one is able to easily handle tax return prepping usually by email or Zoom conferencing as needed. I would recommend them to anyone who needs some help with their taxes or business tax questions.

Never heard any progress on my return and found out that they had filed an extension without giving me any notice or update. Finally, after my calls and emails were not returned, I showed up on his doorstep to inquire as to why my return had not been filed as I knew that penalties and interest were accruing. His answer to me was, "I dont know." This bozo caused me many days of anxiety and basically cost me several thousand dollars in tax penalties in addition to the total lack of concern and communication he displayed toward me, his client. If you are looking for a decent, honest, and professional CPA who cares about your tax returns, avoid this guy at all costs.

Contacted from ad for CPA services in Out North Texas 2024 business directory. Made the mistake of…read morecalling them and had three chaotic attempts with contract receptionists who wouldn't say if they were in the CPA firm or a pooled resource. Was forwarded to voice mail to another person not listed with Ron Allen in their ad. Struggled with unprofessional and incognizant receptionist who wanted to act as an information filter to send Mr Allen a message. I finally checked their website which didn't list the other person they had finally allowed me to leave a message on voice mail for, so I'm now totally confused. But I made a 4th attempt and used the web contact portal to describe my needs for CPA services which were several and my timeliness for getting a yes/no response within a few days. It's the 3rd day and no call back, text, or email whether they are available, interested, or unable to engage for any reason. Having been a registered professional engineer I find this pretty abysmal since there was no "out of office" voice mail greeting. At best they need to work with their receptionist. At the worst they need to check their Voicemail and consider getting a clerk who can marshal their front end business interface who knows which CPA services and customers they want or will take and not leave people hanging. Long and short I spent time asking professional friends ing for CPA references and I believe I have a tax CPA who meets muster. I don't recommend anyone who runs their business in this way without the courtesy of response as I believe that we were a good match from Mr Allen's advertisement. I have friends who are CPAs and who work for CPAs and I know how busy and hard they work, so perhaps it is just growing pains here. Good luck in any case.
