Working with Kyle Clark has been a standout experience from start to finish…read more After a deeply frustrating experience with another financial advisor program, I was cautious about starting over, but working with Kyle has been a complete 180. From the start, Kyle was thorough and patient. He walked me through transferring all of my existing funds, helped me establish clear savings goals, and gave me concrete, actionable guidance I could actually act on. What impressed me most was his timing: all of this unfolded during a period of significant personal transition for me, and he handled every step with professionalism and calm. The results have spoken for themselves. My portfolio has reached record highs, and for the first time, I genuinely feel in control of my financial future. If you're looking for an advisor who is competent and steady under pressure, I can't recommend Kyle highly enough!

Every year, tax season turns into a full-blown family group chat meltdown. My parents aren't…read moretech-savvy, patience is not in their vocabulary, and with my mom's disability, the whole process becomes overwhelming fast. So naturally, everything gets shipped off to me like I'm some kind of IRS whisperer. This year though? GAME. CHANGER. From the moment I called, Yvonne answered like a ray of calm sunshine, friendly, patient, and not at all phased by my "help, I'm doing my parents' taxes and I need adult supervision" energy. Then Liz followed up like the organized queen she is, making sure I had every document lined up (honestly, better than I've ever had my life together). And then... Andrea. The CEO herself. ICONIC. Not only did she walk me through everything like a pro, she broke things down in a way that didn't make me feel like I needed a finance degree to understand it. We talked strategy, future planning, and somehow--SOMEHOW--she got my parents the biggest return they've ever had. I'm still not over it. What used to be the most stressful time of year turned into one of the easiest, smoothest experiences ever. My parents are happy, I'm stress-free, and we've officially become those people who won't shut up about their tax office. 10/10. Would trust them with my sanity again.

I spoke to a tax person named Allah at H & R Block in Santa Monica on Lincoln boulevard and she was…read morethe worst communicator and just so unprofessional. I had a phone consultation with her to see how much my taxes would cost to have done and told her as an independent contractor how many 1099s I had so she could give me a price when she added the details onto the computer. She said she needed to call me back and she would leave me the price on my voicemail if she didn't catch me in person. So she called me back and the message said that the estimate cost of my taxes would be $200 that she left on my voicemail. I called back to their office and asked Amber the clerk if Allah could email me a estimate of the $200 that she gave me on the phone. I thought to myself in my head that if it was a little bit more even $250-$300 that it would be okay, if it went a Little over the estimate. The front desk clerk Amber came back to me and said that Allah said that it would be between $400 and $500 for my taxes to have them done. I told her that I Specifically had talked to Allah and have a voice message that it would be an estimate of $200 maybe a little bit more. Alllah went back on her word and was a Horrible communicator and maybe just said $200 in order for me to get into the office there and then they would have charged me more. She told me she never said that it was $200 and I said I have your voicemail I've listened to it a couple of times. I told them to cancel my appointment. And by the way, she had gotten that estimate of $200 for ONE 1099 form. I found out with my later conversation with her. I Specifically given her Three 1099 forms of the information that I had in order for her to get the right financial information from the computer. Allah doesn't even know how to communicate. Why is she even in this business if she doesn't know how to speak to people and give them the clarification they need and be a professional?
