HPW CPAs + Advisors

BEWARE OF THIS FIRM: Mike Williams was our CPA, and he misfiled our companies return as his email to us confirms by both sloppiness and no attention to detail. This mistake cost us a lot of money in penalties and interest. And his flippant and arrogant response... "mistakes happen" [see his response below] His firm should have paid the penalties and interest. But guess what they refused. Zero ethics and Zero integrity."Mistakes happen. Sometimes pages [1099's] get stuck together in fax’s or omitted from scanned documents. I may have been able to discover this at tax time if I would have noticed the missing page"The firm writes "Mike Williams is known for his honesty, trustworthiness, and his in-depth knowledge"You have got to be kidding me. It must be a different Mike "

I have retained Kevin Hubley for over a decade. I have never considered looking elsewhere because of his professionalism, understanding of the tax code, and the value of his services. He's guided us through numerous business transitions and tax situations very effectively. "

If I could give 0 stars I would. Leslie McEwen mishandled my taxes as a new small business owner for two years. It was incredibly expensive for not just poor but damaging service. I don't usually write negative reviews, but my experience was so negative, and had negative consequences to our family finances, that I feel I should warn other people in our community of this potential with them. We ended up paying huge unanticipated tax bills at the end of each year after being assured by Leslie that she was making quarterly payments and taking business expenses into account appropriately on my behalf since I have fluxing income. I stopped paying for 3 months at the end of our service with them and my bill was $5,400. Then I received $95 dollar bill after being assured that was our final bill. They also farm business out to other accounting firms they partner with. I have found trustworthy and organized help elsewhere for a fraction of the cost. I wish I had left sooner. "

I've had nothing but great service from this firm for over 20 years, at least. Even when I lived and worked overseas for years, they did not waver. They are professional, courteous, friendly, timely, reasonably priced, and they put up with my being late with filing every year! All the way back to Randy and now with Clint and his team, they have gone out of their way to accommodate my sometimes interesting and complicated needs. I only hope they continue to be my go-to accountants and tax prep team. If you want a top-notch firm, this group of experienced, friendly experts will do their best for you every time. Thanks to you all for your continued loyalty. "

I don’t normally write reviews unless I have something positive to say. We had a long standing relationship with HPW CPAs but we’re notified out of the blue that they wanted to terminate the relationship because we questioned a charge for a phone call on our bill. we were notified via email. No phone call or anything from our account. Maybe they have so many clients they just wanted someone to fire at the start of tax season. It was very unprofessional. "
