This firm handled our taxes for years, and we always looked forward to working with Dave Christiansen. Since selling the business to an "Umbrella company", as they called it in a letter they sent to us last year, this firm has turned shady in a surprising way. Dave no longer returns calls or emails, and we were shunted off on an EA (not a CPA) named Jack who was pretty careless and clueless. Nevertheless, we were charged Dave's rate ($480), which is hardly worth it when working with someone like the guy they paired us with. In addition, someone else's name (Jung) appeared on our tax returns as the preparer. We have never met Mr. Jung, and so we considered this business practice shady. Our actual tax preparer Jack couldn't even figure out how to adjust a W-4 to reduce our tax bill, and we were charged CPA rates so a CPA we have never met could put his name on a tax filing he never prepared. We will never work with Christiansen Russell Christiansen again because this mysterious "Umbrella" company has corrupted what used to be an honest business.
