Would recommend them. Not sure why the negative reviews (competitors possibly posting fake reviews, maybe?), but either way, we have used this company and they are very good. I have no complaints and price wise, it was comparable to other accounting firms for tax prep etc. When you are asking your accountant to do more than simply file your return (e.g. look at your books etc), there are additional fees as accountants charge by the hour, so that may be the misunderstanding with these other reviewers who left negative feedback. Accountants / Tax preparers do charge for their time as they have staff etc to pay, not to mention rent for their building, utilities, etc. They cannot give you time for free and I think that may be the discrepancy here. So many people want something for nothing, and take it out on the business with a fake negative review because they couldn't scam the business

I called this company on 1/6/2021 and left a message with the receptionist. She advised someone would give me a call back. I was contacted the following day 1/7/2021 by Ed McSweeney. I initially asked him if they were accepting new clients. He stated that they don’t normally accept clients that aren’t referrals. But he told me to proceed with my questions.

I then inquired what their fees were and at that point he told me that I should go somewhere else. First of all, any business that has information for public view should either state in a website that they only take clients upon referral or after he stated that fact in the beginning of the call he should have ended it there. Secondly any time you are offering a service it is customary for someone to inquire about the rates. Now I understand that any quote he would have provided would have been a starting amount and it may have increased from there. I would caution doing business with anyone that is this unprofessional and rude to a potential client.
