Fantastic tax preparation service. I have been using his services for the last 11 tax years. I initially found his service in a final act of desperation while trying to avoid hiring a tax attorney. I had a tax issue due to a $100,000 mistake by the Department of Defense. They incorrectly assessed a debt against me, then when proved I didn’t owe the debt they used a lazy accounting trick to clear it from the system and PAID OFF the debt by paying themselves. However, since it was tracked as paying off a debt I owed, it registered as $100,000 in additional income. I spent years struggling to find someone to help resolve this. Most tax services would not touch such an unusual case. Most recommended a tax attorney. Because it was unresolved, I ended up with a tax lien, and money seized from my accounts. And I was withholding tax filings to avoid returns being seized. Mr Lang was able to resolve this in a matter of a few weeks Including my delinquent filings. He has been my tax preparation service every year since then. His fees for an ordinary filing is very reasonable so reasonable I try to offer him a tip, which he refuses to accept. He is an incredibly experienced and professional accountant. I feel fortunate to have found him, and though he deserves a well earned retirement after decades of working as a tax accountant, I worry he will retire because we will lose one of the best tax preparation services in East Bay.
