  Complaint: 19557051
  
  I am rejecting this response because:
  

  I am replying to this email in terms of the dispute I filed on *********************** of Burton Partners.  I do not consider this issue resolved.  Firstly, I do not appreciate being threatened by him via email or in response to the BBB in terms of allegations of defamation or that he is going to seek legal counsel for a cease and desist, 
  
  I have every legal right as a former client to request information important to closing my corporation for which he was at the time the accountant who filed my corporate taxes.  I have multiple emails from him stating I have to pay an additional amount for the information and then the most recent response to the BBB saying he is not in possession of said documents and that it was never his responsibility to check the information he received.  ****************** has also stated on record that none of the expenses I am questioning were not deducted.  However, a document in my possession from him via email on 9/15/2022 clearly states the amounts I have in question under the category he made of DUE FROM HOUSE ACCOUNT. I received the below information from him last year after my accountant found this information on the corporate records and said I could not close my corporation until this amount was deducted.  The information is shown below:
  
  Checks:  2/21/13  transfer 5,000.00  
                  3/12/13 Eagle hockey club 585.00
                  4/15/13  ****** title  10,000.00
                   5/20/13 Withdrawal new property 70,000.00
                  5/21/13  Withdrawal new property 112,000.00
                  5/31/13  AT Properties  new property 1,000.00
                   9/25/13  transfer 10,000.00
                   9/30/13  transfer 10,000.00
                   10/15/13  transfer 10,000.00
                   11/20/13 debit transfer 15,000.00
                   11/26/13  **********************; 75.00 
  
  TOTAL DUE FROM HOUSE ACCOUNT:  243,660.00
  
  I am requesting that ****************** issue a letter that is signed stating that all money that is listed as due from the House Account WAS NOT USED AS A DEDUCTION on the corporate taxes he prepared for Children's Therapy so that I can move forward and close this corporation and protect myself from having to pay taxes on this money if I am audited. 
  
  I would also like ****************** to stop threatening me with legal action for requesting information that is my legal right.
  

  
  

  
  Sincerely,
  
  ***************************

  an attorney and file a charge of harassment, ****************** is clearly aware of the fraud that was committed on my business by my then husband who was the treasurer at the time and had access to the accounts. He should never have allowed any personal transactions or removal of money to be run through the business, but he did, I want that information so that I can close my corporation, and I am entitled to it. I paid him for my return of the 2013 corporate taxes for which he completed; the document he produced to my accountant showing this is dated 2017 and he is trying to say that since it was 2017 he was no longer responsible which is ridiculous since the informant is clearly dated for 2013, the time period he was still representing my corporation and doing the taxes. I plan to also file a complaint with the *****

  Business Response

  *********************** continues to make inaccurate statements about what services we provided as her accountant.  We were hired to complete her corporate taxes well after the end of the tax year ended.    She authorized other personnel to access her bank accounts and issue checks.   We were never asked to pay bills, write checks or verify expenses.    There were a number of personal transactions that existed in her corporate bank account and we properly listed those as nondeductible expenses and told her as such.   She continues to threaten us with the *** claiming we deducted those items on her corporate income taxes which is totally untrue.    On numerous occasions over the past 7 years, we showed her that these items were not deducted on her tax return.  This complaint comes 7 years after our relationship has ended.

   

  She is full of untrue accusations, and I will go after her for defamation if she persists with her lies about my CPA services.  This is the first ever complaint against me and it is not legitimate.  I can prove it in court that my services are in accordance with the tax law.

  I have told ******************** numerous times that the items listed in the Due From the House Account were never deducted as business expense on her corporate tax returns.    Those payments were made by other third parties and we properly classified them as nondeductible expenses.    She can keep this response in her file as our confirmation.
