I had two needs of a tax accountant: 1) how to allocate estate assets into two trusts to minimize…read moreOregon State tax consequences; and 2) file the initial Oregon State estate tax return. I connected with Eichenbaum Bateman Larkin in late January. Their commitment was to provide advice on trust funding and then work on the tax return after April 15th. Despite three separate commitment dates, and multiple requests, no advice was ever provided. Nor was any communication provided of the process or timing to do so. I think this lack of transparency and reliability was far worst than the unfulfilled commitments. As the Trustee for these trusts, I was left in the dark as to how to fund the two trusts with no clear expectation as to when it would ever be provided. In fact, EBL did not even provide a "preliminary" list of its needed documentation until 6/11. And even then, communication was unclear until 7/27 when EBL stated the need to file an extension for the tax return (recognizing that it had yet to do anything to provide the needed guidance to allow me to conduct the initial funding of the trusts...leaving the Trustee in limbo all of this time). Then, after notifying EBL that I had lost confidence in them and would find an alternative to complete the work, EBL sent me a bill. Recognize that they had yet to provide any guidance or benefit; and had yet to even review any of the documentation from the preliminary list of documentation. EBL's lack of performance and undependable fulfillment of commitments may well be associated with my engagement being a small project. I really don't know. But my experience demonstrated a lack of professionality, lack of expertise in trust administration and lack customer-centric service.

When I caught the error and stopped paying, it triggered a large "overdue/penalty" from the state, which I have been fighting for a year. Dealing with the state is a nightmare.

Pretty disappointing experience with this business. I called during the business day and had to…read moreleave a voicemail, I explained I am new in town and I need to begin managing my own and my mother's finances (which I now manage as a fiduciary). I got a callback a day later, which is reasonable I suppose. The person offered an hour session to explain what they do for $150. I explained that having a professional manage my finances is new for me, and I was even sure if the services they offered applied to my scenario - And that I'd want to have a brief explanation of what they do and how that applied to my situation before proceeding. I think that's also reasonable. I don't care how good you are or how busy you are, charging me for a sales pitch isn't how you do it and I cannot believe they have any sense of customer service or care about their clients. In my professional experience I have worked with and hired top-notch consultants who are in high demand, and I have never heard of such a thing until now. Yes, I've paid for scoping, but that's after they pitched me as to why I should go with them...

He was very rude and accused me of thinking I wanted free tax advice. Wow! Go elsewhere for your tax needs this guy's got a huge attitude problem. And he won't stop emailing me! I've had to mark them as junk...really unprofessional! By the way I just looked at my phone history and I talked to this guy for 14 minutes yesterday not a half an hour. Can you imagine how he would have padded the time he spent actually answering my questions? Then telling me it would take 2 hours to answer questions that would take a professional less than an hour... I did not balk, all I did was ask how many hours he guessed it would take. I was never expecting his advice for free. That's why I gave him my mailing address at the end of my email. What a jerk.

The whole process of transferring documents back and forth in a secure system went was very convenient. I had several questions along the way and Steve always seemed happy to address any and all of them without any issues. Taxes are always intimidating to me and I never look forward to doing them.
