    Unprofessional, Unresponsive, and Arrogant We hired ****** Desarden to handle a tax correction. Initially, he was confident, but once hired, he became unresponsive to my wifes emails, forcing me to step in. After weeks of delays, the *** issued a balance due, which we paid, assuming the matter was resolved. Then we received a collection notice.After 8 days of silence, ****** finally responded, telling us to refile the exact same amended return. My wife confirmed shed pick up the paperworkhe ignored her. That evening, we got an IRS Notice of Deficiency stating no correction was possible. When I called, he had no clue who I was and then smugly told me I "dont understand how things work" because he has 30+ years of experience.He admitted he ignores clients when theres no "progress," falsely claimed my wife never responded (we have proof), and then stated we were not a priority because we dont have an investment account. His lack of communication, professionalism, and accountability is unacceptable.Avoid ****** *********************************************** & Associatesfind someone who actually values their clients.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
