Vivian is a nightmare to work with. She agreed to take on some urgent tax work, but would not email or call during business hours but only after 10pm!

She would then unexplainably stop communicating for a week or so and then again call after 10pm!

She would then want all her questions and calls answered right then and there, not even wait an hour, since the work was "urgent".

She then made a mistake in my return that cost me extra $1000 in taxes and on top of that I got a bunch of recalculations from the state because of her errors.

When you bring up any of these reasonable points she is rude, tells you she doesn't have time, will blame her staff, her computer software, anything but fix the problems.

All of this despite my work being fixed scope and all meticulously organized documents being given to her before the first email.

Taxes are stressful as they are, you don't want to add her to the mix!

AVOID AT ALL COST!

This was the first time my wife and I worked with an accounting firm and Vivian Chen completely exceeded my expectations! She was prompt at returning emails, took time to meet with me in person and even made calls on a Saturday. She made the whole process smooth and made us feel comfortable! I highly recommend Vivian Chen!

So glad Vivian was recommended to us. She did an outstanding job with our taxes and only wish I had found Vivian sooner! Now it's my turn to recommend. If you are looking for the right CPA the first time, call Vivian.

Vivian is extremely professional and knowledgeable about the tax filing process. She went to great lengths to explain the filing process end to end, and was thoroughly courteous throughout the whole exercise. She was also extremely accommodating with her time during the tax season in spite of his busy schedule, and answered my supplementary/follow-up questions over email/phone.

Vivian was so great to work with, I found the company last minute but all our problems with previous CPAs were solved as soon as we got in touch with her. We had a somewhat complicated tax return, which the other tax person we went to could not figure out how to file. Vivian had us upload everything to the portal and explained everything in just a few days of work. I will be coming back every year to use her services.

They went above and beyond to make sure I had all the information required to make the right decisions.

Vivian Chen cares a great deal for her clients. She focuses on enhancing her skills and taking the best training to better serve her clients. She is a top-notch professional who stays abreast of the complex and quickly changing tax laws. Any small business owner and taxpayer would be fortunate to have her as their advisor.

They always make you feel special and works with you even if setting a time never works for your schedule. This company has never let us down and I'm sure they wont let anyone one else down. Don't hesitate to contact them.
