Which I did for an in-person time several days out, and got a confirmation email back. Nowhere was I required to enter detailed background information. A couple hours before the meeting, I got an email saying I could only do a 15-minute phone call. I further got a phone call about two hours before the meeting from Mike Davidow. He was abrasive on the phone, and stated their consultation fee was $400 for half an hour. He kept speaking over me and complained. All poor service. Suggest they start by improving their website and not yelling at people over the phone. Don't recommend this firm.

New client - Had a scheduled call with Darren Wendroff "Director of Communications" LOL For being a "Communications Director" from the beginning of the call, he treated me very arrogantly as if he was doing me a favor. He said to me that he didn't have much time as if he was doing me a favor, I tried to give him all the information I know and could, he then replied with a high tone... If you don't give me accurate information, I cannot give you a quote , pretty interesting introduction to this firm Wendroff & Associates to a new client, if they are willing to treat you in that manner in a introduction, I can only imagine how they will treat you if you have a need, emergency or concern. I politely said to Darren Wendroff "Director of Communications" LOL, that he didn't need to be rude to me and speak in that manner to me... He got quiet and hung up on me - GOOD LUCK if you go with this firm.

I'm of course waiting for my refund and hoping it comes through. Regarding the owner's comments about submitting it close to deadline. I submitted my documents weeks in advance (and ahead of their quoted deadline date for me to provide). I don't appreciate the implication that I submitted my documents late when simple email records can verify I submitted ahead of their deadline. Just say you were busy this year, had to deal with some staff shortages, what I don't appreciate is trying to pass it back on to me.

I was eager to work with him as the owner of a small business in my neighborhood. He was friendly and knowledgeable in our first meeting, by zoom, and I looked forward to working with him not only for tax prep but for longer-term tax planning. The initial back-and-forth, all through texting through the firm's portal, was fine. But as it got closer to the April 15 deadline, his manner turned abruptly rude, "yelling" at me in ALL CAPS when I didn't understand what he needed, and sending other curt messages. When I asked if we could speak by phone to clarify, he yelled in all caps again. Then, when I called him on his behavior, he claimed his caps button got locked - which is ridiculous. When the taxes were complete, there was no opportunity for any in-person or even zoom-like meeting to ask questions about the way in which he had prepared my taxes. He offered only a separate appointment, long after the tax deadline, which would have been useless to discuss the current tax prep (and a separate cost). I am a low-maintenance client, was eager to work with this guy and would normally offer people grace. But I cannot recommend hiring him by any stretch.

His early assistance was prompt, thorough and he also is very experienced with various tax issues. Cons - He has the capacity to be highly unprofessional once his comfort level settles in. I have been on the receiving end of him yelling on the phone, and attempting to scare me into thinking if I didn't hire him and his tax attorney for assistance (for a few thousand dollars) that I could end up in prison. I could go on and will spare you the details, but the bottom line is after several weeks of his subsequent unresponsiveness, I lost a lot of time. The good news is I successfully managed on my own without help and received a favorable response from the IRS in the end. The bad news is I wasted time and experienced unnecessary stress related to Rich's exaggerated 'scare tactics' about my tax situation. While I appreciate Rich's early assistance, over time his professionalism eroded. But don't take my word for it, just take a moment to review his response to the other less than stellar review on here as he illustrates my point himself with perfection. In fact, I suspect he may take aim at me personally as well after reading this and take the same approach, so just a heads up. This review is not to steer anyone reading away from soliciting Rich's services or to imply that others' experience may mirror my own because you may very well receive issue-free service as many other reviewers seem to have had, but as this site is dedicated, largely, to providing a forum for honest reviews on service providers, I am sharing my experience with others so they can make an informed decision.
