Al Bolton Inc

"Stellar! Able to handle the mix of freelance consulting, ft job income, and entrepreneurial ventures. They get busy so it helps to be organized and patient. Many of his dedicated clients consider themselves lucky for more than a decade."

"To sum it up: really bad customer service, missed appointments, never returned phone calls and a few amendments due to negligence."

"No no no. He came recommended by a friend. We filed very early, in February. There was some confusion, as Al said that he would file an amendment to our return after we discovered a medical expense that we had missed. He never filed this amendment, never followed up with us despite us calling and emailing many times to try to contact him. At one point a woman answered the phone at his office just to tell my husband that they were to busy to answer our question. Emails went ignored. It’s been months and we were under the impression that our taxes had been amended and that was why our balance wasn’t reflected online. Contacted the IRS today to learn that the amendment was never filed and we now owe late fees for non-payment. I’ve never been treated so poorly by a business I’ve placed my trust in. He continues to ignore our attempts to reach him. Disgraceful behavior- if anyone were to be audited who had trusted his services they would be absolutely alone. Never trust a business man who fills his office with collector Barbie’s, that should have been our first red flag. Go anywhere else for your tax preparation."

"Al Bolton has done my taxes since 2005. He is a pleasure to work with. He has always been very generous his time. He walked me through the process of incorporating and has given me good advice ever since. When I needed to amend a filed return, Al made the necessary changes immediately, during the height of tax season. I can recommend him wholeheartedly."

"I have been coming to Al for 7 years now. He has been always very helpful and he understands daily struggle of regular New Yorkers. My husband and I are artists, and now we are also independent contractors. Our tax docs are filed correctly and promptly every year with him. He always has the best interest of his client. His operation is small and he gets extremely busy towards April, so I suggest you make an appo earlier in tax season. Highly recommend to anyone is not very uptight. His office is filled with fun decorations and music. Why not to file your tax with a bit of fun!!"
