I am someone who has always done my own taxes on TurboTax, etc. After getting married, we decided…read morewe needed a CPA and I am now regretting this decision. Things stated off well, Veronica had an introductory phone call with us that went well and she offered some good suggestions. However after that the communication totally broke down and she pretty much ghosted us when we had questions about our tax return. As someone using a CPA for the first time, I found myself wondering why am I paying when I feel like I am trying to figure this out alone (basically felt abandoned). We asked some basic questions back in March, she responded once, and that was it. She then emailed my husband that she's been on a trip to Japan. Going out of country right during tax season as a CPA is a choice and that's fine, just COMMUNICATE WITH US. Anyways on Sunday, 3 days before taxes were due, we still had no reply so we just relented and submitted what she had prepared. Anyways, just disappointed. Not going to her next year. Evidence below.

She has denied me access to my own business accounting. This is an intent to cause harm and damage to my business. I asked for final invoices for my company so we can be complete. She did for my current business and I paid those in full. We are complete. However, she also sent me two invoices from a business I sold over 6 years ago and said I had to pay these before releasing Quickbooks to my current business. First of all, statue of limitations in CA says you can not ask for invoices to be paid after 4 years. Second, she is an accountant and clearly is not good at her job if she wasn't able to reconcile a business from 6 years ago that has been closed out. When I asked for reports for this past business, she refused to send and said, "its tax season, you know I am busy, and that takes time." No it doesn't, its a click of a button. I also asked for reports for my current business and when she sent the wrong report, she refused to send the correct one. I believe I was overcharged and wanted to see my payments to her invoices. Still no response. I know I was overcharged. I got my attorney involved, however Ms. Rattfield has declined to communicate.

With ALL of my business services, I look for the following traits: #1 Trust: Shirley has EARNED my trust through her honest actions and conversation on MULTIPLE occasions. #2 Acumen- With her long and varied experience and continual professional development, Shirley has been integral in ensuring my business is within compliance and up to date. All of my taxes have been done right the first time every time. I even had her return reviewed by a third-party to verify and they were unable to make any additional adjustments. Also, she has proven to be a respected mentor and brainstormer! #3 Compatibility- Every time I come into Shirley's office, EVERYONE is happy and kind. Shirley is fun and easy going. On my last visit, she actually created a specialized card for my daughter- Not the kind of service I received at H&R Block. It is hard to find people who fit the mark in each of these areas and Shirley surpasses all of them by far. I'm lucky to know her and I'm glad she is watching out for my business. Now, if I could only get the same experience from my bank and marketing team!
