Byrne, Seligman & Co, CPA

Oct 2023

Our company had problems with our tax returns submitted to the IRS and State of CA by Byrne and Seligman. We went to another firm and have been getting great service from them for over a year. Overall, if you have a good bookkeeper/accountant then payment of taxes is simple and should not be costly or time consuming. Review Late: Always last minute. I see in other reviews they claim they were waiting on the tax code to be finalized. They fail to realize that this puts stress on the company to accept the tax return with little time for review. Quality: They failed to inform us in a timely manner that we had to pay the State of CA, resulting in penalties. They missed the fact that converting a company from S corp to C corp should be done at the 1st of the year, not mid year in order to double pay the CA state FTB annual payment. Also, the IRS has told us that they did not receive our 2019 and 2020 returns. We are not sure if this is an issue with B&S or the IRS but we are fixing that now. Price: 4x what we pay now.

I turned in my tax documents and I did not hear from them for a month. Tax deadline day was only a week ahead. I called them and it sounded like they forgot about me. They did rushed and got it done on time. They told me it would be $400 on the phone prior but charged me $600. I asked what was the reason and they said $400 was okay.
