Unfortunate Experiences
KPM's reputation has been marred by allegations of unethical behavior. Debbie Moore's mother had been filing taxes with KPM for years, but it was discovered that she was no longer required to file for the past five years. Despite this, KPM continued to charge her fees ranging from $515 to $650 per year to file a 1040 form. The firm claimed it was at her mother's request, but Debbie Moore asserts this is false. The situation has caused "heartache" and led to concerns about the firm's ethics.
Excellent Services
On the other side, several reviewers have had positive experiences with KPM. Sherry L. Williams credits the firm with correcting their tax filing errors and expresses gratitude for the expertise and knowledge provided by Barbara Houser. Vince Hamilton describes KPM as one of the best CPAs in the area, confident in their ability to help with finances. Debbie Henderson praises the firm's employee treatment, client services, and the expertise of their CPAs and wealth advisors.
