Lucrum Legal Accounting powered by Paula Field, CPA, PLLC Client Testimonials: "It's been several years with Paula Field, CPA firm, and we love her and the team. We received a penalty from the IRS in Oct 2022 close to 50k due to masked SS/EINs for 2020 1099s. We responded to the notice which they quickly came back and said the penalty was still being enforced. Paula and her team stepped in and prepared a very thorough response and was able to get our penalty abated. It took a few months and a lot of hard work but they fought for us and we are so very thankful to have someone looking out for our company. We highly recommend her and her team for accounting and tax needs." "I have been with Paula Field, CPA for about five years. I requested someone at Paula's office two be knowledgeable about day trading accounting method. Business Manager called me back and asked me how can they help...I repeated this information and tell her that my CPA said I need a Specialist...she said does he know how to Google it. RUDE." "My mother passed away in November 2020. Paula and her team have been essential in helping me get through this death of my 87-year-old mother and the executor duties. So far, I have needed them for two years, helping me deal with my mom's taxes and her health insurance, as well as other necessary tasks. They have been assisting me in probating her will. Without them, I would not have known what the hell to do because my mother did not leave me instructions on any of this. They are knowledgeable in all the areas I need and have the transparency of pricing that I need to proceed. It pulls me back from the edge. Thank you, Paula, Blake, and company, for being there for me." "I've been contemplating writing this review for two years, but as I read the reviews and the consistent inability to take responsibility and blaming the customer for any action that goes wrong with her business; I just could not let it go unnoticed. I have not used her services for the past two years, so my story is not a reflection of current events. But for both years, we submitted our paperwork months before the tax deadlines, and in both year's our taxes were emailed on deadline - NEVER AHEAD OF TIME! In 2020 we were actually emailed our taxes with a video and they were incorrect! Didn't even explain why they were incorrect and it was useless video. When I tried to speak with the owner, she had given everyone the day off and no one answered the phone. Well needless to say we were panicked because we knew we would now be one day late. Finally after going back and forth with voicemails with an office person who was not qualified to answer my questions, we get a call back from the owner who proceeds to embarrass me due to her office's incompetence. To this day we have never received a revised corrected version. Not to mention we paid 7x more than we do now! It appears the only reason there are good ratings/reviews are due to longtime local residents who have used her services. Beware. Find a better skilled more updated accountant who will actually respond and care about her clients. We found another accountant locally and couldn't be happier. She will never own up to her faults. Look at her responses to reviews" "I called this office today and their receptionist took my info and I specifically mentioned that we need a CPA who understands this step. The 'Business Manager' called me back and asked how can they help...I repeated this information and told her I have been with my CPA for over 15 years and he advised to find a specialist in this field. This Business Manager (and I can't remember her name at the moment) proceeded to tell me does he know how to Google it! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? YES I WANT SOMEONE TO GOOGLE HOW TO FILE A MARK-TO-MARKET FILING. THIS IS THE IRS!!!! I proceeded to tell her I have Google it and it is very detailed; she said they would need a 40 minute consultation and it would be $450 for them to tell me how to file the form.....I'll GOOGLE IT myself since that is your method. SO RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL WHEN YOU HAVE CALLER WHO CAN BE A NEW CLIENT!!!!"
