I like many others have been taken in by Ron V Strawn and his shell game...I've contacted Summit Tax Research, Columbia Financial & Tax Services, So Coast Business & Tax Inc. or whatever they happen to be calling themselves this week. Ever notice that it's always a different person, the person who wrote sixty days ago claiming to be general manager ( Jennifer Lonergan) is no longer with the firm. Ms. Lee who was spearheading Mr. Strawn's appeals operation last fall is also gone.
I have spoken to a LEGITIMATE tax attorney ( yes you can locate his bar number on the State Of California Website)... He is very familar with both the IRS and the FTB...for those who would rather pass on Columbia's too good to be true $1, 500.00 deal you can reach Steve Mather [email protected]
