    Paid Greenlaw tax approximately around or over $10,000 to complete and file my taxes with them for 4 years. They kept promising me that they sent my taxes to the *** for tax years 2020, 2022, 2023. I was under the assumption everything was fine and they were indeed electronically filed with the ***. This became a problem when I went to e-file my own taxes for the 2024 tax year as mine and my husband's annual gross income for 2023 was refused to be accepted by the ***. However, when I called my local *** office they stated that they never received my taxes for those years at all. After constantly calling Greenlaw tax about this issue and trying to get to the bottom of it, they gave the excuse that the *** has filing delays. I kept getting passed around and the customer service people at ********************** didn't seem like they knew what they were doing or saying to me. So now, I had to print my taxes out and snail mail them myself to the **** I am at risk from the *** in receiving penalties for non-filing and filing late as well. This company just does not seem to care at all and at this point I'm basically screwed.

    I recently contacted the company by email and phone to request a refund of the $4,000 they charged me to file my back taxes and clear a tax lien against me. I was made aware recently that Greenlaw filed no returns on my behalf and did nothing to help me with my back taxes or lien. I tried contacting the company to request invoices of what they did and what they even charged me for and ***** will return my calls or emails. I want my $4,000 back that they scammed me out of as they did not do anything to help me at all. My granddaughter is in the process of filing all my back tax returns as we speak and I am filing this complaint to get my refund of money they scammed from me and to report this company as scammers. thanks.

    I have been a client of Green Law Tax for three years, and I am extremely dissatisfied with their services. Communication has been consistently poorI have had difficulty reaching them, and my calls are rarely returned. Moreover, they have not resolved any of my tax issues, and I was given misinformation that ultimately cost me more money. Despite providing all necessary documentation for my ************************************************ updates regarding the completion of my tax return. My experience with Green Law Tax has been deeply frustrating, and I regret engaging their services, as I feel I have been charged for services that have not been delivered.

    May 17 2017 My wife and this criminal organization sending them two payments of $2900 for $5800 total. They have never send us any paperwork on settling our tax issue. They also tried to get another $22.000 to settle a $50.000 tax bill. We never received any billing information from them. Which is a criminal act in its self. We have decided to contact the *********************** for illegal business operations. Also thinking about bring criminal action against ***************** and Brain Cissocoate. Only do business with this company if you money to throw away

    When I first contacted Green *** Tax Group they explained they could help me with my tax issue. They made me believe if I paid them $2200 that would take care of back taxes and I would not owe the *** $6000 in back taxes. I didnt qualify for their loan program but said if i paid them $200 for 12 months, they would help. Here I am 16 months later. I called today and spoke with ******** ************ and she mentions, they submitted my case to the *** in March 2023 as resolved. I also happen to mention that my 2020 Federal refund was witheld due to back taxes owed. SHE mentions that under the 5 year program I am in, unfortunately the *** will still keep any refunds. So I mentioned " THEN WHATS THE PURPOSE OF ME PAYING YOU. I SHOULD JUST PAY $200 TO THE *** INSTEAD OF YOU". I asked for a refund, she said " UNFORTUNELTY WE ALREADY DID ALL THE REASEARCH AND WORK" .. at the end of the call I stated i want some sort a resolution and that I was going to report them to BBB., then the call went CLICK. ************************* UP ON ME. I'm a single mother trying to make it in this world and GREENLAW TAX GROUP just robbed me of $2200 that I could have paid myself to the ***. I feel defeated. All I want is my REFUND. My next stop is the *** Website to begin making payments. Never believed lawyers could be crooks. How naive I've been.
