Brandii at BFG came highly recommended on a Facebook group.

The communication between us on the phone was clear and informative. She has a team of experts that work with her and they are all knowledgeable and the nicest people you will meet! They are worth anything they ask for. This company is professional and on top of their game. We had someone else do our 2022 taxes incorrectly and BFG not only amended the return, but we got a refund! A+++ service. They also did 2023 and we are on our way to do 2024 with them soon. My husband and I will use them until we retire! haha Thank you, Brandi, Michelle, Kyle and Lauren!!!! Loved working together and so appreciate you all!

1 Star -- Do Not Give This Firm Access to Your Business or Bank Accounts…read more Based on my personal experience, I strongly recommend avoiding BASC Expertise. This firm is overpriced, constantly nickel-and-diming for basic requests, and extremely difficult to work with. Simple asks routinely come with surprise charges -- asking for a small favor can easily turn into an unexpected $1,000+ bill. Over the course of our relationship, our taxes were messed up multiple times, which created unnecessary stress and cleanup work. Despite paying them thousands of dollars, accountability was never taken. Instead of addressing client concerns, anyone who raises issues is labeled a "disgruntled client" or accused of lying rather than the firm taking ownership of its mistakes. A major red flag: they do not allow clients access to their own QuickBooks, while simultaneously requiring full access to your bank accounts. Even worse, Deirdre inserts herself onto business paperwork, making it intentionally difficult to leave once you realize the relationship isn't working. The most alarming issue: during a legitimate contract dispute, they attempted to withdraw $36,000 from our bank account without permission or prior resolution. This was not authorized, was not agreed to, and happened while the matter was actively being disputed. That alone should make any business owner think twice before trusting this firm with their finances. Communication is another constant issue. Deirdre is frequently out of office or on vacation and often unavailable when you actually need support. Yet the firm has no problem charging premium rates regardless of service quality or responsiveness. Despite presenting themselves as a full accounting firm, there is no licensed CPA on staff. They will still try to operate as if they are indispensable to your business and push arrangements that feel unethical and heavily one-sided. There are far better, more transparent, and more affordable accounting services available that actually employ CPAs and don't lock clients into questionable agreements. Bottom line: If you value control over your own books, ethical billing, clear communication, and not having someone dip into your bank account during a dispute -- go anywhere else. Do not give this firm access to your finances.

Very rude receptionist. I caught CoVID, so I called to reschedule my appointment. Receptionist…read moretold me she will not reschedule again if I cancel again. I told her if she rather have me come in after tested positive? She hung up the phone on me. I am now weary of this office's covid policy. *** Updated reply to Lin Rawlinson Lin Chai, I am glad you replied to my post. I am concerned by your reply by below factors: 1. I rescheduled twice with you before I caught Co-VID due to my busy schedule. It was on my 3rd rescheduling when she told me I could not reschedule again. All my rescheduling with the exception of Co-VID was with ample notice (At least 2 weeks out). Concerns: Your clients are very busy people and when you are pompous to tell your client they cannot reschedule, it tells me your office is not customer focused nor you are a friendly office. Additionally, when it comes to public health safety, it raises concerns on your office's ability to provide a clean and safe environment for visiting clients. Requesting 1 day cancel notice from someone who just found out he caught COVID was not only illogical and unconcerning, it was downright irresponsible as an office that opens to the public. 2. Your receptionist was the one who hung up on me when I questioned your office policy on CoVID. Concerns: Placing public health safety for those who visits your office help build trust and shows care and respect to those who visits your office. For the reasons above, I did not choose your office. I was interviewing 2 other CPA offices that were friendly, professional, and understanding. I have since selected one of them. I hope you will review your office professionalism and health and safety protocol, but equally important, the honesty of the people in your office. It takes a lifetime to earn trust, but seconds to lose it.

Even though my franchise requires mandated bookkeeping services right now, Steven still took the time to help and added real value. He also connected me with a trusted local small business attorney for corporate bylaws and other legal needs, which saved me a ton of time and stress. If you're starting a business and need help with taxes, bookkeeping, or getting set up the right way from day one, I highly recommend the bookEase.
