Lawrence R Pappas CPA

My family and I have utilized the services of this firm for many years. Typically we provide them with the necessary forms and information fairly late in the filing process, but they were always friendly, cordial and totally supportive. We would never think of using any other tax professional.

Extremely knowledgeable. Extremely thorough. Very honest and easy to work with. The work on my account has always been completed in a timely manner and, I am always receiving tax savings options to consider. Never had a problem with anything done. The staff is friendly and helpful. VERY convenient office location; can stop in any time to drop off documents/​pick up returns and schedules or just for a quick meeting. Very easy communication — especially by email.

Irresponsible, uncommunicative, and sloppy, with potentially serious consequences to the client. We had to point out errors in our return multiple times, which he corrected without taking any responsibility himself, instead blaming his assistants. He misfiled our state paperwork and (unbeknownst to us) our refund was rejected; he then refused to answer any emails and left on vacation without a word. We found out by contacting the state – he never informed us himself. As such we were stuck in the lurch with significant amounts of money missing. As of this post we are still awaiting him to contact us. In short, this office could cost you serious money and stress due to carelessness – look elsewhere.
UPDATE: In response to Mr Pappas’s comment, below, I still maintain that he elides aspects of his services that I found distressing. Nonetheless, rather than belabor a back-​and-​forth, I would simply like to observe, without comment, that his reply makes clear he feels comfortable mentioning details of my family’s return on a public forum. Potential clients would do well to take this fact into consideration when deciding a CPA with whom to trust their personal and financial information.
