If you want to over pay and get ripped off for the lack of tax saving advise you deserve.than this is your firm. Because they have a few high profile clients they feel entitled to charge heavily and advise you to overpay the IRS so they will not have to defend you in potential audit or suggest more complicated tax strategies. So many mistakes on the bill pay and business management side and you would never know if your bills sent directly to the office for payment. Run from this firm and find a reasonable and capable CPA

Ok supposedly their speciality are salads, a $20 all you can eat, but they go beyond salads and simple lettuces, soups, wins, cheeses, creams, and well you must go and experience.

This place is far too expensive. If you have the money, why spend it? If you don't - they won't even give you the decency to tell you it might not be in your best interest to not file taxes this year. And I get the feeling that since they are paid hourly, they drag out conversations between their clients. I wouldn't recommend it. Sorry ZZZ.
