I paid $446 for professional tax services and received the most unprofessional experience of my life. Despite submitting well-organized documents with clear instructions, the firm failed to acknowledge receipt of these instructions even after multiple email and phone reminders to multiple staff. As a result they failed to process more than $15,000 in income. They acknowledged the oversight but attributed it in part to saying that I was a new client—despite me having filed with them previously. I pointed this obvious error out to them and they did not acknowledge it. Their last communication to me included spelling mistakes and a non-apology. This lack of diligence and accountability has eroded my trust in their services. I am now left uncertain about what else they missed.
I believe this is my first negative google review. I can’t recommend them to anyone.

This firm is the worst. I gave them all my tax information for my personal taxes and three businesses almost three years ago and they just kept blowing me off. Doing only a small fraction of what was required. All while I've been getting emails saying my corporations are going to be dissolved.

When I contacted them regarding things not getting done they just gaslighted me saying we never agreed on a price. They literally had a blank check. They also would not give me a cost estimate no matter how much time I gave them.

It pretty much all has hit a head after years of patience. I asked for a game plan over 40 days ago now in which they said they would get right back to me. Still nothing. I've decided to pursue a professional negligence lawsuit.

I wouldn't suggest this firm.

We [3 members of our family] have used Sheehan and Associates for our personal income tax preparation for several years now and have always found them to be very professional while providing responsive friendly service.
I have recommended them to serveral others and will continue to do so.
Highly recommended.

Please do not file your taxes with this fraudulent business. The process of filing with B A Sheahan was extremely confused and drawn out, with terrible communication. I was passed around to at least 4 different associates during the course of my filing. They told me they had filed within the deadline, and then several weeks later, told me they hadn't filed yet. They then tried to charge me for the late filing fee. Months after the services were completed, they would still send me invoices, with no explanation as to what the hours or services were for. This year I went to a new tax company and once they reviewed the B A Sheahan filing, they told me that there were several major discrepancies, fabricated figures, and my books had been cooked. When I phoned and spoke to Barry Sheahan regarding this matter, he didn't even bother denying it, and simply said that my tax case had been difficult (which I was well aware of, and the entire reason I chose to invest in a company to help me in the first place). I've now had to re-file my corporation's taxes for that year, and pay all over again.
