Melissa has been helping my family with our tax preparation for years. As my financial situation…read morebecame more complex and I can no longer trust myself with TurboTax, she expertly took over once I provided all my documents. She was able to reduce my liability. The e-filing process was simple and paying what I owe was a secure and seamless process. She has given me peace of mind through the years and I trust that she prepares my taxes accurately as I have never had any issues with the IRS. I plan to continue working with Melissa as she has been helpful with tax saving strategies as my life situation changes.

Welp. I'm updating my review because I wrote the review yesterday. She emailed me with the copy of…read morethe 2024 as I requested, but 12 hours after she said she sent it to me. (I checked my spam and mentioned that i will hadn't received it.) She was kind and considerate, until I said that I was at a wedding and couldn't respond. I am now pretty shaken about the exchange I had. You can judge for yourself if you want her for your CPA. I tried to delete my review, but I was met with an error message. To be clear, I never asked her for a refund for what I paid her for her services. I never said quoting a price was illegal. I'm not sure why she said that, honestly. I think people that receive a service should be paid in full, which I did. I wasn't trying to skirt out of any payment. I was going to edit my entire review. Instead, I'm trying to delete a review at almost 1 in the morning because of this exchange I received and it completely ruined my whole night and happy wedding/celebratory mood and replaced it with unnecessary stress because she wanted the review removed before 3am.

Used Rudy for a notarization on an affidavit. First visit, he flagged that my name needed to be in…read morethe body of the document, not just on the signature line. Fair point -- I went back to the attorney who drafted it, had them add my name in the body, and confirmed the document complied with California notary law . Came back later in the day with the revised document. Rudy looked at it and said "something seems off." That was the entire explanation. No identification of what was off, no specific provision he objected to, no questions about my ID or the underlying transaction. Just refused. Took the same document to another commissioned California notary that same day. They reviewed it, verified my ID, administered the oath, and notarized it without any issue. Two visits, two trips back to my attorney for revisions he requested, and ultimately a vague refusal with no actionable feedback. A notary's job is to verify identity and witness an oath. If specific concerns exist, communicate them clearly so they can be addressed. "Something seems off" after you've already made the customer revise the document once isn't professional -- it's wasting their time.

This review is a little long overdue but my experience is a very positive one…read more We worked with Javier after contacting the business through yelp. I was provided with a quote after saying the service we needed. The price was reasonable and there were no surprise charges. They don't make appointments because they are a walk in service only. Nonetheless, it was a very smooth process. We basically sat there, small talked, and we were finished in less than 30 minutes. No major time consuming financial questions were ask because we provided all necessary documentation. After all the information was added, we confirmed all of our information. The best part about our experience was the knowledge we gained from working with someone like Javier. We were unsure of how our responses on tax forms made a difference in our return so for Javier to make sense of that us was worth it. We anticipate returning this upcoming tax season, and I would recommend anyone who is unsure about taxes give this place a try.

We committed to working together, I felt they were unresponsive once we started uploading docs…read moreetc., and they then suddenly told us they'll no longer work with us with no explanation and didn't respond to any follow-up questions. We're now left with very little time to find a replacement and we'll probably lose a lot of money as a result of this surprise from them. Facts: we agreed to work together at the start of this year. They shared a portal for us to upload docs into. It took us a few weeks to get started uploading those docs but we're still within their purported time-frame in mid-February. We had some access issues that, for myself, they fixed; that was not fixed for my wife and we had to bug them several times in the last week before our scheduled tax prep meeting. They then reached out to me, saying that they can no longer work with us and that they'll delete all the files I uploaded to their vault. When I asked them why, they did not respond.

I've been working with Akram at All About Your Taxes since 2021, and I can honestly say he is the…read morebest tax professional I've ever had. Before finding him, I was going to a lady in Chinatown because her prices were cheaper, but I quickly learned you get the kind of service you pay for. Mistakes were made on my taxes, and I needed someone reliable and knowledgeable to fix them. That's when I found All About Your Taxes, and Akram helped me amend the errors and get everything corrected. Since then, I've stayed with him every year because he is extremely thorough, detail oriented, and professional. The entire process is always smooth, seamless, and stress free. Akram truly goes above and beyond. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, answers all of my questions, and always acknowledges my emails. Akram gives great advice that is tailored to my situation. I always feel confident that my taxes are being handled correctly. I am so happy I found Akram and I highly recommend him and the team at All About Your Taxes.

We have used BOL for two years and decided after last year it wasn't for us. The first year we had…read morean alright experience with Gary but weren't able to get comprehensive answers for the questions we had around real estate. The next year we were essentially assigned to someone else because who we saw previously was no longer accepting new clients...but we weren't new. Reaching whoever they assign you to work with is nearly impossible. After an initial apt weeks went by for very basic things and I was calling or emailing every few days in a panic as the deadline to file quickly approached. Eventually an extension had to be requested when all needed documents had been completed in Feb. The back and forth email and call correspondence was time consuming and ridiculous. We kept having to reach out to check the status and after weeks would get a response to schedule yet another appointment. Not personable, not friendly, poor communication. They likely take on too many clients because they care about profit over people.

I can't recommend Jon Van Wormer highly enough! Tax season used to be one of the most stressful…read moretimes of the year for me, but working with him has completely changed that. He made the entire process so much easier to understand and handled everything with such professionalism, patience, and clarity. From start to finish, Jon broke down all the confusing forms, explained everything in simple terms, and ensured I was getting every deduction and credit I was entitled to. What used to take me days of frustration now takes just a couple of smooth, stress-free meetings. It honestly felt like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. If you want someone who's knowledgeable, trustworthy, and makes income tax less complicated (and even kind of enjoyable!), Jon at Liberty tax is the one to contact. I'll definitely be returning year after year. Also, to anyone who cares, I recommend not to wait til the tax deadline. I was stressed free in February while everyone was scrambling to get theirs done in April.

I've tried to do taxes on my own, but the problem is, if you're not working in this area daily, you don't know all the questions you should be asking yourself. It can even feel embarrassing to ask certain questions. Except with Millie. She makes you feel empowered and grateful at the same time. I only wish we could clone her so that there's a Millie in every city!
