Reviewer report
Across all matched sources
Themes are a synthesis of public reviewer accounts, not independently verified outcomes. “Repeated pattern” is used only when multiple review narratives support it.
Ratings and counts can change after the observation date. Google and Yelp ratings apply to the linked business or location profile. BBB cards show customer-review scores, not BBB letter grades. Duplicate aggregators and ambiguous matches are omitted.

No individual practitioner is named on the checked page and TRC has not checked any credential. The page’s own counter for tax professionals renders as '0+', so the figure above is taken from the body text.

Established by Internal Revenue Service, PTIN holder Freedom of Information Act extract updated 2026-02-23 · checked
From the IRS Freedom of Information Act extract of PTIN holders, updated 2026-02-23, matched on the provider’s business name at its known office or on its website domain. A PTIN holder registers their own business name and address, so this counts who names this provider in that register and nothing more. It is not a headcount and it does not measure who a provider can call on: employees who file under a personal name, contract practitioners, of-counsel attorneys and professionals at partner firms do not appear here. The extract refreshes twice a year. The provider separately describes a team of over 150 tax professionals made up of CPAs, enrolled agents and tax attorneys. TRC publishes both figures because they are the two things a reader can check. They measure different things, and a difference between them is not by itself evidence that the provider’s statement is wrong.
