Report
Their rates may be a little bit on the high side however the quality that they produce is Worth the price. I can't tell you how many times they have reduced my tax liability and they helped me avoid audits and penalties I have attempted to do my own taxes for comparison purposes and they have consistently reduced my tax burden each time I've made this comparison.

Avoid at all cost! I was never informed by this company about their extortionate fees. I am a private salaried taxpayer (non business owner with one source of income) and I ended up paying over $2,500 for my tax return! You'll be sorry!
