I'm writing this post to share my experience with the service's of john a losurdo pc cpa located at 1630 w colonial pkwy, inverness, il 60067 (847) 907-4860 here are the facts. He grossly overcharged me for my 2018 tax preparation. Charged me $2150.00 for my simple tax return my new cpa says was not worth more than $600.00 -$700.00, including book work Very few entries).
Losurdo told me it took over 14 man hours to prepare. 14 hrs? I asked what took so long? Yolanda said she has a timer on her desk and charges by the minute like a lawyer. She said i was charged to answer my phone calls and emails too. She said, after she or whoever works on my taxes, john has to look over the entire return line by line and check everything and i have to pay him as he has a timer too. In other words, i was paying double, once for a person to work on the taxes and him to review.
I asked, how do i know how many hours you have in? You could say any amount of hours you want. I asked to see their time records or time sheets in detail to prove this gross amount of time. Yolanda said, i'm not showing you anything. Losurdo had my tax related items for over 4 months and waited until after april 15th to complete, then charged me to file an extension.
I had already paid them $1000.00 prior. They told me to pay them 100% before they would file my taxes electronically. I was trapped into paying what ever they said. They said, pay $1150.00 more.. I had no choice. I was trapped. I sent a 2nd check for $1150.00 payable to john losurdo, this check was intended for his company john he ran to "my bank", to cash, lied to the teller by saying he was my employee. The teller knows i dont have employees, so she called me on the phone to ask about it. I said cash it.
What was i going to do at this point? He cashed the check personally. Understand this, the check was intended for his company. They have been over charging me for years come to find out. I am going to file possible ethics violations with: illinois dept. Of financial professional regulations Idfpr). The the illinois cpa society Icpas). American institute of certified public accountants Aicpa). The national directory of registered tax return preparers & professionals Ptin). Better business bureau. Internal revenue service also, going to post the above on the following sites: google. Facebook. Yelp. Scamion. And others will be filing a law suit in du page county, small claims court as well
