I didn't have time to research a tax law so I engaged this firm. I was told a special form was…read moreneeded to be filled out in a non standard way and they would do it for $1500. They then called and said they used up the $1500 and would need $1500 more. At that point I researched the law myself- took no more than 1/2 hour in google searches and determined they had given me incorrect advice and I didn't need to complete the form. Upon calling them back, they said yes of course I didn't need to submit the form. But they had already spent $1500 in what seemed to me trying to find ways to charge me more. Seems unethical to me.

Unfortunately this firm mixed my bank account with another client, this having me receive two…read morerefunds. Instead of righting the wrong, I was asked to write a personal check to the client rather than having the firm account for their error. The first problem is that my data was given in error to another client. The second problem is that I was asked to write a personal check to their client. No ownership was taken for the mistake. I instead had the errant monies refunded to the IRS, which is the proper channel. Certainly more tedious for the other client, but the right thing to do. This firm's suggestion of me writing a personal check put me in potential auditing by IRS for "double dipping" if you will, as it would show me having two refunds in the same year. I have made my complaint to the board of accounting for the state of Maryland. I would suggest treading lightly given the lack of discretion and ethics used by this firm. I have moved on to a much more sound practice.

The Buchanan Group helped to create a planning and engagement strategy, through a series of…read morefacilitated discussions for my nonprofit. Once we had agreed upon our messaging, approach, and implementation we were able to bring in the people who are responsible for day-to-day communications whether it be developing and managing social media, and other outreach activities so that this could be presented to those who fund the program, as well as implement engaging strategies on a day-to-day basis. The benefits are that the Buchanan group is able to tailor both the facilitation and expert recommendations so that we have our very own plans, strategy, and processes so that communications can be fully managed in-house. The staff also provided special training for those who may be in particular roles whether they speak to the media, or managing social media on a day-to-day basis. This substantially lowered our costs and increased greater efficacy and impact.

Brett is exceptional, talented and caring. A really great combination for a coach!…read more The past 6 years for me have been a real Sh*t storm. People are always commenting that they would have been crushed by what I have been through. And, yes, I went through it (still am going through it), but instead of counting my victories, I counted my challenges. It was ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER. Half the time I could not set my feet long enough to counter punch. Sometimes all I could do was jab; Pivot to the next problem and return, quickly, to the initial problem just to parry what was still developing there. Eventually you ask "why me"? -Really Bad Question, that one; 'Cause your brain MUST answer questions. My brain said, "Because you are a loser". That was more crushing than the totality of all of my problems. But after half a decade of getting crushed... you weaken a little. Brett quickly assessed me, my situations and my talents. He was like: "Dude! You got it all wrong! Your Crushing each and every battle... They are massive. They are relentless! You win every time!" He made me see that these were all external forces. I had NO control over them and my responses were amazing! I suddenly saw all of the WINS I had been amassing all along the way. With his help, once I started counting my victories instead of my challenges. I was crushing life!! -Still am :)

I called…read moreseveral days ago - when the opened and was told that the primary contact would be in touch with me by end of day - that was a lie. I did not receive a message back until shortly before 9 pm on Friday. When I called back, I heard automated message saying they are all out on vacation for next couple weeks. It's hard- no - it's impossible to get any kind of decent service from "un"professional tax (experts?) around here. I'm taking my business to Virginia where my friends get good service. I don't trust the reviews here as they don't correspond at all to my experience with borges. Horrible lack of service and availability.
