Donald McCartney has been doing our taxes for almost 20 years. We are so appreciative of him and his wife and all they have done for us thru the years. Mr. McCartney has integrity and is very knowledgeable as a CPA. His wife Nancy is so kind and helpful. When you choose them as your CPA you will not be disappointed.

I was referred to this firm in 2009 by my Lawyer ( Donald R Campbell) who said that I needed a good CPA to do my taxes, in his opinion Donald G. McCartney one of the best. Well my Lawyer was right because after 10 years of their service, I'm still a loyal customer.

Horrible experience all around. The CPA is knowledgeable but wastes time in consultation in what I perceive is an effort to increase his billing. The secretary is the CPA's wife and she has no customer service skills and should not be at the front desk. It took forever to get anything done and I had to constatly beg for help and service. They also raised their hourly billing rate to $220 an hour without informing me and billed me. They do not post their "standard fees" as they call them. Who does that? I felt I was always on the back burner and utlimatley the CPA only cared about his bottom line. Needless to say, fired this guy after thousands of dollars mispeant. Buyer beware.

Showed poor inter-office communication among each other. They had 1 complete tax package and it took 6 wks before they started on it. They don't initially explain that they will AUTOMATICALLY place any Corporate taxes ahead of yours. In week 5 that was the explanation given as to why they hadn't started. You fill out pertinent information on their 10 page Tax Preparation Questionnaire and yet they are quick to say that they don't have something due to YOU not giving it to them. Once they realize they are full of mess or that the excuse isn't logically, they then quickly respond with another angle of NOT TAKING OWNERSHIP. We respectfully submitted packages properly and communicated, but to no avail, there were several careless mistakes on their part. We were new clients that will not be back. We had our previous Accountant/Tax Preparer for 11 years and he is at the point of retiring. I honestly, was hoping that this would be a perfect transition. Not even close to being even an okay experience. I just hope that IRS don't have any issues with their preparations/our files, because dealing with the "team" is exhausting; The "team" meaning his wife, son, and other preparers, they just don't take responsibility. Again, Mr. Don seemed pleasant but we only interacted with him at the initial client consultation. Several careless mistakes and no ownership made everything questionable for us. Didn't work for us, but good luck to anyone else. Poor service for top prices.

I am completely satisfied with my tax return. McCartney is knowledgeable about tax laws, and lawfully informed me what would be considered deductible/non-deductible in regards to my small business. His wife is very personable and remembered me from a 5 minute conversation we had 2 weeks ago! He has a family business, and I am thankful I found him! I did my research looking for a new CPA. His rates are competitive. He is well worth it to get a good nights rest! I will file with him again!
