Expert and honest
During my initial conversation with Bill, he spent 36 minutes on the phone with me. During this time he shared a wealth of knowledge and advice. And he did so even after determining during the first few minutes that he could not be of help to me cost-effectively. This reflects upon his integrity, as he could have easily taken my money to do something that would be better handled by myself - as he suggested I do with the IRS. He gave me a thorough overview of my options and how to go about them most effectively, and how to avoid the problem in the future. I will not hesitate to call Bill again for any tax-related matters.
