Tax Guy Albert is the best tax service I have ever used. Albert and his professional staff work hard to maximize your return where other places would just process your return with minimal deductions. I have recommend friends and family since our first year and that was five years ago. He also offers a variety of other professional and legal services to meet your needs. Congratulation Albert and I wish you continued success! read more

Been doing my taxes with Albert for over 10 years, wouldn't change my tax preparer. He's professional and has answered all my questions. He is the Best! read more

Terrible terrible customer service! They never call u back and give you the run around! All is great when they are preparing your taxes but when the IRS does an audit on you, no one is available and no one knows where your paper work is and have you explain your story over and over again! Do not do your Taxes here!!!!! They give you an appointment and when you get here they are out to lunch!!!!!! What a horrible an exhausting experience this has been. read more

The most outstanding, fast, friendly awesome person I'm talking about Ben from Riverside. Highly recommend.

Been coming here for years already wanted to thank Albert for all the help he has done for me and family and of course our return as well thank you Albert much love read more

I highly recommend the preparer named Robert. Been a 5 years Customer of this place. Me and my husband travel from Ontario to South gate or Downey office whichever has availability. These are your guys when it comes to taxes. They are highly knowledgeable when it comes to tax preparation. No crookid or fishy stuff. Very professional staff and they explain everything to you. They have these huge XL computer monitors so that you can follow along and see what they are doing. Very smart dudes and we are always happy with the outcome. Friendly, professional staff with sense of humor . The fee is reasonable considering the professionalism and clarity. They also confirm your appt a day prior and not alot of businesses do that old fashion foot work. read more

In order to have a good experience at an establishment there needs to be a understanding of expectations and also a level of comfort. I was in a terrible and scary situation with the IRS, I hadn't paid my taxes in a few years and to be honest I was probably months away from being garnished. Working with Albert was the best tax experience I've personally ever had, he was able to calm my nerves and made sure all my paperwork was submitted on time and most importantly he did a great job with the follow up with me and the IRS. He worked a miracle with my situation and I'm going to continue with recommending him to friends and family. There's a great and welcoming environment when walking in, all staff members are friendly and professional. read more

these guys are a joke. the boss, albert completed my taxes and forgot to send one of my w2...guess what? i owe the irs 5k. so i call back, and they charged me to fix the issue they created. this delayed this years refund, i have to pay the irs still in all 3 appointments i had to wait 2+ hours!!! after an appointment time! NO ONE apologized for this oversight. im glad MY time is counted so cheeply worse yet when i asked why i have to pay or them to fix a problem they created i was told " i dont have to explain myself" WTF? what kinda bizz is this!? STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! OR IRS will be seeing you soon! read more

I had an appointment with "Carlos". A half hour after the appointed time, he called me in to tell he'd overbooked and wanted to re-schedual. Having taken the day off to attend to business, I walked out and did a walk-in at Pascual's Tax Service in Lynwood. Nancy took care of me right then. If you want to get jerked around, go with these guys. If you want good service, take your business to Lynwood. read more

This place took forever. I didn't get seated until 2 1/2 hours after my appointment time. After being seated, the tax person was not apologetic Like another Yelp reviewer, you could tell that they over book these appointments. To add insult to injury, the main guy, "Albert", in some way let my family member know all my personal information without my consent or me being there. I am sure this is completely contrary to any business ethical code and is probably illegal! TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSE WHERE! THEY OVER CHARGE, TAKE TOO LONG, AND WILL SHARE YOUR INFORMATION TO GET A FEW LAUGHS! The reviewer before thinks these people are hard working for staying up till 12:30; however, they wouldn't have to stay up so late if they wouldn't over book! read more

Albert knows every in and out of the tax world. The guy who helped me was David, been going to these guys for over 4 years and every year its like visiting old friends. Very welcoming and wonderful people. Make an appointment in advance, and if its your first time going, take your taxes from previous years so they can double check because they helped menget MORE back from years prior when i did them myself. read more

A business that does not stand by its appointments is not worthy of my business. A two hour wait is uncalled for. My time is valuable especially as a new mom. I had been a client of TGA for over 8 years. Our wait time continued to increase year after year, but I figured well it's only once a year that I have to wait this long, so, this year I decided to try a different route and drop off my taxes for completion a week prior to my scheduled appointment on February 10th at 10:30 since I have an active 21 month old. I freed up time during my work schedule to be available for the conference call. The time came and went and no one called. When I called the following day the "office staff" for lack of a better word informed me that my taxes had been worked on but they had not been completed. At this point I was patient and asked courteously when I could expect them to be completed. I was told they would call me back with that information. I never received a call back. Every time I called, I received the same response with no call back. I decided that I would take my business elsewhere so I stopped by to pick up my paperwork. I was denied my paperwork with invalid promises that were kept. Since I was already there and pretty desperate at the this point to get my taxes done, I asked to schedule with Felix rather than Albert the owner. I trusted that he may provide a better service since my sister and parents are clients of his. When I requested to see him at that time he was booked nevertheless and Albert communicated with me via his office staff that he wanted to complete our return personally. The only way I would accept was if he offered a discount for the inconvenience and he agreed. I gullibly accepted as I was told they would be completed by the end of the week. The incompetent girl who works the front office gave me her personal number to text her to follow-up on the status by the end of the week. I guess she doesn't know her number because she gave me the wrong number. When I called TGA's office she still had the audacity to confirm her number when I repeated it to her. What nerve. A week passed once again and I followed up on a Monday. I was told that Albert had a few questions for me and he wanted to schedule an in person appointment. I was livid to say the least. The availability of appointments wasn't until March 13th at 3:00. Two weeks later. I received a reminder the previous day of my scheduled appointment at 2:00....I was like they can't schedule appointments either! What kind of business is Albert running now? I think since his sister left the business a lot has changed and not for the better. When I arrived for our appointment my husband had already begun the process not with Albert but with Felix. I was really disappointed that after all I had been through he would not even make time in his schedule to mend the matter. I guess he really did not value our business and the referrals we had provided him. When Felix completed our return I told him that Albert had agreed to a discount for the inconvenience. Felix tried calling and texting him, but of course he did not reply. Felix offered a $10 Starbucks gift card, I honestly began to cry because I was so upset at the fact that I was lied to numerous times and that the owner of this company could care less and not show face. WHAT A COWARD!!!!!! This is truly unprofessional, untrustworthy, unreliable and far from mediocre. This is an honest and sincere review. I was told by Felix that he was going to have Albert follow-up with me regarding the issues. For what? at this point I am having a bottle of wine and moving on with my business elsewhere. I'd rather pay a higher price for ETHICAL services. read more

Being that it's tax season, I thought I'd warn everybody how badly these folks f*cked my taxes up for one of the previous years. I basically got screwed and ended up having to pay back a lot of money I had to fork out when I got audited. Obviously, I trusted they knew what they were doing so I did not bother reviewing their work. I was not offered the interest they should be liable for nor a reimbursement for their f*ck up. After I informed them of the issue, I kept getting the run-around and never received a response. I'm sure there will be more reviews of this sort from others in the future. Sad. read more

I have been going to Tax Guy Albert for years! He is efficient, great attention to detail and gets you the most out of your refund! Highly recommend! read more

Been going to "TGA" for years. Amazing service! I'm not one to trust others, but i can honestly say I trust Albert in handling my taxes. Always helpful when ever I have questions, and never makes me feel rushed like other places I've gone before. read more

These guys are pros been going with them for over five years. Albert and Mario is the business. Well all of them but I been going to them. Check them out and you will not regret it. From a satisfied customer. read more

Best tax place in town. The knowledge and experience this business has is outstanding. Will not go anywhere else to trust my returns. Jeanette is so knowledgeable and helpful with all the paperwork and questions read more

Got audited and they did NOTHING, hard to get in contact. They are the worse, how are these people in business?!!!

Great place. Although the area may not be pleasing at first sight, the inside is absolutely clean, cool, and vivid. You feel relaxed in this quiet and professional environment. There's a spacious restroom and waiting room. Albert Ortiz, is the funniest guy around! Do your business with TGA, and you won't regret it. read more

Walking in to the business I was very pleased that it was very clean and welcoming. The wait time was a little long, but worth the wait! He takes the time to go over every section and make sure you understand. My appointment was with Albert, well he finished up with his client he had another tax guy, Carlos get my fiancé and my taxes started. I think I just found a new tax guy!! Ah-maz-ing!! read more

I had to push myself to write this review because I'd hate to know others are in a similar predicament to mine. I gave TGA one star because that's as low as it can go. I foolishly went against my instinct when I had Albert work on my taxes. His shady offerings were a red flag but I still continued my services (stupid me). I'm writing this not to put TGA's business down but to encourage prospective clients to seek tax services elsewhere. It may seem appealing at first, but when the IRS is taxing you because of inconsistencies in your taxes (years later), Albert and his team will avoid you like the plague. Any reputable business will never indicate or suggest any fraudulent acts to "help" you. If there are any reviews that will dissuade you from a business, let it be this one. read more

I came first my first time today and I met with Felix. This was the best tax experience I have ever had. He really helps you understand everything and takes the time to make you comfortable. I was even given some delicious Starbucks coffee! I will definitely be coming back! read more

The "appointment" times are meaningless. They are satisfactory at filing regular taxes. DO NOT go to them for audits or other services. I was charged for an audit handled incorrectly and left to fix it myself with the state. read more

First time at TGA. They squeezed us in last minute, they were done by Marlene. She was very helpful and got us our biggest return yet. Will definitely be returning next year. read more

I love doing my taxes with Mario! He has so much experience and is very professional:) I highly recommend coming to him, he will take care of you! read more

Very happy with the service we receive here. We've been coming to Felix for a few years now, and he never disappoints us. He is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and patient. We've referred several friends and family to him and they are all happy with this service too. I already booked my appointment for next year! =D read more

This is officially the best place I've gone to prepare taxes. Over the years I've tried many other big name companies and small family owned places, but this one has to be the best. All of the staff is super friendly and welcoming. I was helped by Ms.Miranda, which works fast and efficiently. She was able to explain to me in a way I'd inderstand, not just telling me numbers. Usually i just sit there and they run numbers and done. She made sure i understood what, why, and how. I've very pleased with this location. Will be defenetly returning yearly. Thank you! read more

TGA is the best tax office out there. Jeanette, Albert and Felix are by far some of the most knowledgeable tax preparers that I've ever came across I've been doing my taxes here for the past five years and this guys really know their stuff there is a little bit of a wait do to the fact that they have so many clients but it is definitely worth it. I have got more on my refund here than anywhere else and these guys know how to cross their T's and dot their lines very thorough on making sure that everything is in line very thankful to have his guys on my side. I always recommend all of my clients and all of my family members to Tax Guy Albert office their the best. They even amended my taxes that were done elsewhere and got me money from things that the other tax preparers we're not knowledgeable on what more can I ask for. read more

I have been going to TGA for 3 years now and love the work they do. Felix was recommended to me by a family friend who has been going there for a long time. I had some poor tax work done in the past and Felix looked at the work and showed me how certain deductions like my tuition were not being applied correctly. He is professional yet has a spunky personality that makes it a joy to do your taxes. Some reviews below complain about the wait times, yes this can be the case but its tax season and some folks don't come prepared or on time. Its unfortunate but when its your turn it will be worth the wait for the quality of work you receive. I would recommend him over and over! read more

I've been coming here for a few years now. My guy Felix always delivers great customer service and helps me get my max refund. Don't be fooled by those Tax Commercials. Come in and let these guys help you out. read more

I have came here with Felix for three years. Awesome person! Takes his time to ask questions regarding your taxes. I have recommended him to family and friends and everyone is pleased! Tax Guy Albert is place to be to get your taxes done! I am happy with the services. read more

Great service! Felix was able to look over my taxes for the past three years and able to fix all the mistakes my previous tax guy had made. Definitely recommend their services. Don't forget to schedule an appointment! read more

I was referred to this place by a co-worker of mine and I feel forever indebted for the reference! Its not easy to find tax accountants that spend the amount of time these guys do with each and every client. Sure, their is a long wait even with an appointment, but who cares!? These guys are saving YOU money! I would have waited 4 more hours without a problem. Albert amended my taxes and found several errors in previous filed years. His charge was very reasonable. After I received my amended 2011 tax return, I tried scheduling an appointment with Albert. He was booked till April! (even on weekends). That is how good he is. So I scheduled an appointment with Benjamin. He was just as knowledgeable and spent the same amount of time with me as Albert. I will go back for as long as I live in Los Angeles and highly recommend this place to future colleagues and friends. read more
