Julia E Hampton CPA PC

Julia did out taxes which were complicated and had to file for several states. We are never happy when it comes to tax time and usually do them ourselves but this year we opted for help and we're very happy that we did.

I emailed but never heard back

We met with Julia on our initial visit on Friday, March 27th, 2014 and handed over our tax information for 2014 Tax Return.  At that time, Julia stated she would be able to help us out in the short timeframe, and be able to make some changes to our small business for our benefit.   She mentioned she would need to review all of our information and would be in contact the following week to discuss price and timing of the return.   1 day later I came across some additional tax information that Julia would need so I emailed them to her.   No response was received confirming she received the information.  I called the office the following Monday to verify she received the information, and I was informed that Julia received over 200 emails a day and it would be better for me to email the assistant instead.   I did that, and still no response of receipt.   The following week on April 7th, I called the office to get an update on the tax return, and was told by the assistant that it was in progress but not update could be given at that time.  I also asked about the additional information I submitted and if they received it and the response I got from the assistant "we probably did, but it's buried in our paperwork, could give detail about what information was sent and I will make sure Julia received it".   I felt frustrated by the way communication and information has been handled, that I emailed Julia directly explaining my concerns and their lack of communication throughout this process and asked for her to call me anytime the next day to discuss.   I received a reply from Julia the same evening explaining that there were no issues with our return and she would be in contact with me the next morning.  2 days later, still no response from Julia or her staff, I emailed her back expressing my need to pick up my tax information the following morning at 9am and take my business elsewhere.   A brief reply from her was sent stating, my taxes were does and I would have been notified the next day, and it was up to me if I wanted to take my business elsewhere.  Still no mention of price and no apology for the communication breakdown.    I went into Julia's office the following morning at the time indicated to her and picked up my tax information.   Julia was not present when I made my visit.  Julia's business may run and work for her, but I prefer not to be associated with a business that provides this type of service.

She's a very nice, wonderful lady. She is a people person and has always been very helpful and her prices are reasonable. She is a very honest and reliable person.

Julia is very professional and takes care of her clients. If you are looking for someone on your team to take care of your taxes look no further. Julia is worth every penny of her services and knows her craft and will bring down your tax burden compared to other tax professionals I have used.

She was a great listener, had sound and reassuring advice, and really knows taxes and estates. I will definitely be using her office for all of my tax needs.

Julia was very friendly, helpful, and professional. She did a great job very promptly, and explained thoroughly everything I needed to know. I will definitely take my tax work to her in the future.

Julia E Hampton CPA PC was wonderful, very reasonable, I feel like I met a savior and a friend. I would recommend her to anybody. She was precious with me and she treated me like her aunt. I was on Angie's List and I emailed her from there and she called me within 5 minutes. I had some problems with my taxes and all my email said to her was please help me if you can. She is kind and sweet, she calls you or her secretary calls you and she is professional and she knows her business. I felt very comfortable with her.She is wonderful and she is kind. I was worried and scared before I met her and she knew I was stressed out about it and she took care of it.

After realizing that turbotax had been giving me bad advice as to whether I needed to file a non-resident tax return in Kansas (it turns out I did need to), I decided it would be better to go with a professional. I got Julia's name from my brother-in-law who has used her for ten years. I met with her in person to explain my back tax situation but you can also just drop off all of your stuff and she will call you with any questions. The taxes were done in a timely fashion and all I had to do was sign the forms and mail them in (they also e-file, but I wasn't eligable). She charges $200 for federal and state returns for that tax year, which is not much more than I was paying for turbotax after I paid them all their fees for state returns and e-filing. It is worth the peace of mind to have a CPA doing it for a little more.
