We moved to the US last year; one of the tasks we had to do which seemed to us an ordeal was to look for a certified accountant in both lands (the US and Israel); when we talked to new friends, mostly Israelis, we realized that we needed to turn to an expertise. Quite a few mentioned the name Miki from the Rosenthal Accounting firm. We turned to her and we weren't sorry:She was extremely gentle and knowledgeable-which saved us quite a lot of hassle in terms of time and money.We wholeheartedly recommend her service.

I known this is inappropriate but this is my little way of showing gratitude and appreciation to her. Karen foo helped me trade my $1000 to earn $12,700 in five days. She’s very straight forward and genuine, you can contact her for your trading via her details below

This company is very professional. I remembered last minute about doing my taxes and the employee was very accommodating. She gave me a great price. I will definitely use this company for my taxes annually. Thank you!

Rosenthal accounting went above and beyond my expectations. Close to year end, I asked them to help me increase my cash flow. They recommended some changes in my investment portfolio and went beyond the scoop of my request and amended my last 3 years tax returns, so I would be able to claim deductions that I didn't know I should.

The reason I am writing is that I want to help others to avoid mistake I did in dealing with this tax preparer. The only time I used Rosnthal service was my tax return 2015. I was self-employed and carried form 1095-misc with me. That time I knew nothing about taxes and completely relied on "professional" (very bad decision). But, hey, that is why you use a service! For the most part you trust a person who you believe has the right knowlege and can help you with tax. I asked her some questions, some of them out of curiosity, however her respond was always:" do not worry, I made it good for you". Well, ok, good is good. Overall on the federal level I got a refund (premium tax credit) but on state level I owed, so my gain was $500. At that time I thought at least I do not owe taxes, and everything that I owed to state I paid out of my return on federal level. Although I left home with a strange feeling considering my situation: filing status, dependent and income. I was having a feeling that I am eligible for better refund and no payments at all. Well, what did I know about real thing-taxes?! Nothing. So I just left. Recently I got a lovely letter from IRS stating that I owe them SELF-EMPLOYED taxes in the amount that was exceeding any possible numbers plus the interest that accrued from the date after filing deadline up until this September. I would say I never owed that much to IRS( again taking into consideration my situation). Of cause first thing I did I called her and respond was:" The reason you got this letter is that you owe self-employed taxes-just pay it". What????!Just pay it???! How about you explain me at first place that I owe more taxes on self-emloyment?! Well the good thing by now I got more into taxes and have an idea of what is taxed and how(thank you self-education!) So I took my return out and was shocked seing that my income from 1095 misc was reported as #7. Wages, salaris and so on on form 1040. Now I understand why I had self-employment taxes... When I asked hre about interest she said that it is my obligation to pay since I did not filed taxes quaterly for that year. Really?? I thought you choose to do so, whichever is more convinient to you. Since my income was not big, I was fine with paying taxes once a year. Plus on the back of the IRS papers they specifically told from what dates interest accrued and for what. So the thinks I am an idiot who can not read and she can tell me anything -I'll eat it. BE AWARE of this not only with her but double check and do your research if you not sure in something. After that conversation she never responded to me back. And it is obvious why. At least she signed my papers. I end up using other company for a second opinion and they were shocked from what they see she did. FIrst of all I was not eligible for Premium tax credit, howevere she missed out my EIC and ACTC. With all of that plus the fact that I had to return the refund back and pay self-employed tax- obviousely it should be filed correctly, I end up still getting money back in almost the same as I supposenly owed to IRS. I had a huge EIC credit and full amount for ACTC that covered all the taxes I owed after correction. What I found out: SHE is not looking out for you, she will not bother herself with doing extra work to apply for credits you are eligible and plus her always advice:"Just pay it!". If I just listened to her, I would loose a lot of money unnecessary. My friends and family member aslo suffered from her service and even have been audited. New CPA resolved audit with no loss, however she reccomended to just pay and do not ammend the taxes. I hope that IRS will knock her door if not did so yet and I would see how "just pay it" will work for her. Such people should not get the PTIN number to work for public. Do youself a favor -just run! AVOID.AVOID.AVOID P.S. I placed same review on google as well. My guess is the only good reviews coming from her friends and family members.

Our prior accountant had left us in a mess and we has a lot of work to be done and quickly! This required a review and updates of prior years activities. Miki did such a great job and in a timely fashion and is readily available to respond to questions. Her work is great and not as expensive as most Bethesda accountants.
