We've been using HHM for our dealership services for over 7 years. Not only have they provided tremendous value in our tax work but they have been an incredible resource with operations and best practices for our company. Highly recommend their services

I initially contacted HHM for help in settling my father's estate. After that meeting, I decided they would be a great firm to handle my personal taxes & trust filings. With a quick review of my accounts, they were able to suggest some changes that really lowered my tax liability!

Worst CPAs! First, they had me overpay and so I actually got a refund check back. They gave me a price for services when I initially went in, then tried to charge me more than double after the fact. Don't trust them and go to someone else.

I have had the pleasure of working with Trip Farmer for nearly 13 years and I recommend him and his team highly. They're thorough, responsive, and downright brilliant.

Unlike many CPA's I have dealt with in my past 62 years. HHM goes the extra mile get it right the first time and fix a problem when it occurs.

Very similar story to the last post. Error by HHM forced me to have the problem corrected and was told that additional fees would be charged per the accountant. I refused to pay for a HHM mistake and they threatened legal action. Beware and find another firm.
