    Review Karen Ross

    Extremely Helpful!

    Posted by

    I began working with Karen Ross while settling my father's estate taxes and then seeking advise for my personal family taxes. Karen took a lot of time educating me and gathering all relevant information to get my family the maximum tax advantages. I did not feel like I was being rushed through her office, but rather really listened to and that my situation was important to her. She was also very helpful and willing to answer follow up questions as I learned the processes. Highly recommend her.

    I handles a case about a year ago where Ms. Ross was the opposing attorney. I found her to be very competent, reasonable, and effective for her client. I endorse Ms. Ross.
