With more complex finances, we knew we needed someone we could trust and who had the skill set to manage them (a task we didn't have the bandwidth to learn in addition to our own responsibilities). Jamison Hanson was referred to us by a friend and his father who were already clients, and I appreciated the firm's methodical approach. They use a calculated risk at a level we were comfortable with at each stage of life. Money management is all about managing risk and minimizing expenses in the process. Not having a financial background, I have benefited greatly from what I have learned through our partnership with Steven Jamison. I don't feel comfortable with the black box approach to decision-making where I put in money and hopefully more comes out. At every meeting there's a new detail of the evolving tax law and our changing financial situation, which leads to a range of choices to better position ourselves in our retirement. Steven's explanations increase our understanding of our finances, which helps us make the best choice consistent with our goals. We have recommended Steven to multiple people. I believe his greatest selling point is that I trust him! With his measured approach to management, I don't feel like we are gambling; we are managing risk. Most importantly, I trust Steven to have my best interests at heart and give us the best information he has. - Will & Rebecca

Review: * WorkSource * at the employment department in Salem…read more I've been here several times in the past year. The staff are attentive, passionate about their mission, and I have better feedback (resume, cover letter and tactics/tools) than before talking to them. I especially enjoy Wilma, who helps with job searches. She knows about a lot of resources, is tuned in, caring, personable. I am giving a four vs five rating, because at times I've waited a while for my appointment because the persona I was waiting for did not know I was there, although I told the staff. But I will return for more coaching and resources for figuring out my next career move.

Pushed me off to colleague in Portland when I asked for supervisor, he covered for her and also did not offer return of preparation although I brought it up. Very disappointing experience and would never recommend.

Brought all ore paperwork as their website said to bring only to have both of them saying they did not need it, mind you we just started a business and bought and sold a house and just got married. Figured we needed a professional which they are not. Stay away unless you like being treated bad.

I wish I was able to leave a positive review. When I initially went in for the new client…read moreconsultation and met with Stewart, I was impressed with the office and the people there. I initally asked how much he charged and how long he thought it would take to prepare my business and personal taxes. I never got an answer to my question - which should have been my first clue. I received the invoice in the mail, for almost $900. That amount can cripple a small business. The invoice didn't specify or have a breakdown of why it was so much. When I called the office for clarification, I was told the tax prep took almost 5 hours. 2 hours alone to input previous years taxes into "the system." When I asked what "the system" was, I was only told their internal system. The past years filings from previous accountants took 1-2 hours. For a firm this size, I don't see how a simple return can take 5 hours.

I called her office-both offices she works at- and she kept deliberately ignoring my calls and messages through MyBlock.

Would've been nice to know she was incompetent at her job so I could have found another agent sooner but she really wasted my time. Please do not waste your time with her, file taxes yourself using TurboTax because Denise should not be trusted with your tax information.

She asked me to move my car and I told her I would be only 8 seconds and gone. Well, this only ticked her off and then she got that "Karen" attitude as she informed me I was over the line, to which I replied You don't have to be a "Karen" about this I'm only going to be eight seconds. This ticked her off royally and "...maybe I was 11 seconds" but as I'm backing out to leave, out comes her camera with the fanatical attitude that she had caught me in a major criminal activity, as she raised her phone triumphantly and yelled something like "I got it!!!" As a former Corporate Executive, I find this kind of attitude and activity of an employee appalling and bad for business. I would never do business with an organization that doesn't value their potential customer base! There are other tax service businesses in our area, my suggestion is choose another!
