Taxes and Accounting Services
The reviews for Hicks' accounting services are mixed, with some clients reporting excellent experiences while others experienced significant issues.
Quality of Service
Several reviewers praised the expertise and professionalism of the accountants, particularly Chris Knuth and Mark, who took the time to explain complex processes clearly and delivered quick results. One reviewer, Mop Boys Cleaning, noted that Chris took quick care of their taxes and made them feel informed and at ease. Similarly, Sara Wilson appreciated Mark's expertise, willingness to help, and prompt response time.
Disappointing Experiences
However, one reviewer, Neil Gerstein, had a disastrous experience with Hicks, citing late penalty fees and a lack of responsibility from the accountant. Gerstein reported that the accountant forgot to pay their taxes and refused to offer a refund for the resulting penalties, leaving them out $565.
Conclusion
While some clients had positive experiences with Hicks' accounting services, one reviewer's disappointing experience serves as a cautionary tale.
