Karla Dennis & Associates

Lack Of Communication

Would not recommend services here. Found Karla Dennis & Associates thru Dave Ramseys ELP, Passed around like a beach ball, i had to keep calling the office multiple times to get updates on the status of my file.. i was put on hold for excessively long wait times… 10 mins+ just to get an update… one girl came to the phone asking how i would take care of the remainder of the bill when i hadn’t even received information on my file!.. I’m a 1099 and wasted multiple weeks.

Very unprofessional.. i felt there was a lack of communication within the office…. i didnt get the “heart of a teacher” feeling as dave always promotes .. after multiple calls, there seemed to be a questionable response as to what i requested from the beginning from the owner after several weeks in. I was able to get my file back and went to a different tax firm.

  1. A scam artist who starts with an outright lie and will probably land you in jail if you follow her advice

    The very first lure – booking your spot for the “live” webinar – is a scam. The “live” webinar isn’t really live. However, she lies to you upfront that it is live but she’ll be unable to take any questions. There are enough cues to indicate that it’s recorded. If her customer engagement starts with a lie, that’s enough to tell me about the rest of the business.

    Secondly, her advice is all about creating a business on paper (even if you’re a W2 worker) shifting all of your expenses to that business, and claim deductions for them as business expenses. The IRS might have a lot to say about that. By the way, I’m sure that some of her customers would get away with it too. I have seen people get away with fraudulent returns before. That doesn’t mean that you always would. Are you willing to risk everything on the hope that you’d get away with it?

  2. Karla and the rest of the scammers

    I do not recommend Karla and her company. You pay a lot of money and you get lost and bounce around between “Justine” “Daniella” “Steven” “Auileen” and God knows who… You will not only loose money but you loose your sanity because they are incompetent and late with everything. They never return your call and you have to chase them one by one to get your returns in time. But when it comes to money, they take it up front. I went down the rabit hole with this karla company. I took all their “Training” and “Taxstrategy” courses they have online. They pretend that it’s “LIVE” and they even pretend during the course communicate with audiences as they ask leave 1 if you are from California and leave 3 for this and that. It was embarassing to watch how stupid these people “Karla ” and Karlton” consider other people . As this point of the game people with the lowest IQ can understand if something pre recorded or it’s live. My experience to give my taxes to Karladennis was a nightmare. I was honest and earned my money and gave it to them. Before choosing this company just hover through her website and you take one of the courses which is later turns into a trap to take more money from you. Take the course and see how stupid they consider people. The same behavior is in their services and whatever they do for you. They won’t get any blame and whatever they can’t answer, They would say it’s IRS. Very pethatic company!

  3. A OUTRIGHT FRAUD - STAY AWAY!

    I received Facebook feeds about her. I watched her “How to Write-off Almost Anything” webcast. It was ludicrous. She bases her position on her unfounded and bizzare interpretation of Internal Code Section162 that allows “ordinary and necessary” expenses. According to her, the taxpayer gets to exercise their “power” and decide what is “ordinary and necessary.” This is obviously not the case; courts decide. There is a litany of cases — including a Supreme Court case — that defines what is “ordinary and necessary.” She concludes her webcast with a scam to sell a sensationalized series of books for $5,000. Stuff like how to avoid and not fear IRS audits.

    Most of her Facebook posts make no sense.

    In an online video of a speech before a real estate group, she stated she is an accounting professor at California State University Dominguez Hills. She doesn’t appear on the college’s online faculty list. She also claims to have a Master’s Degree in Taxation (MST) from the same college, which does not offer the degree. I called her office and asked where did Karla get her MST degree. I was told California State University Dominguez Hills. AGAIN, THIS UNIVERSITY DOES NOT OFFER A MST DEGREE.

    BTW, I am CPA and actually earned a Master’s Degree in Taxation and I have 40 years of experience. I worked with large national CPA firms, law firms, the tax department of a top national bank, and other publically-held companies. I think I can recognize a tax fraud. If Karla is the ultimate tax professional that she purports, then your hairstylist is a brain surgeon. She definitely doesn’t speak the nomenclature. Often her remarks are impractical and replete with error.

    KARLA IS A FRAUD. And I can prove it. Most of her writings make no sense. She is welcome to sue me for libel.

    I am trying to inform people to avoid her so as not to be scammed.

  4. Almost 3 hour webinar promising information was a commercial

    This webinar was excruciating. Just perpetual promises to disclose helpful information.. for 3 hours… and then it ended. Maybe her firm is really great, but her free webinar is a ridiculous scam. I understand you get what you pay for, but 3 wasted hours is not “free”. I would much rather pay for an informative one.

    1. One Big Commercial--No Substantive Information Provided

      I signed up for the first and introductory webinar where Karla repeated over and over and over again that she was doing to give us a Tax Reform Cheat Sheet and define the TD WOW Code. As it stands, this turned out to be one long commercial about that she will (eventually) do/give. I understand that nothing is free but then don’t state over and over and over again about what we will get before the webinar ends.

  5. Great Professional Business: Glad I took the leap of Faith Best Decision

    I was skeptical because of some of the reviews I read. Then I though how could this company be in business this long only have a handful of reviews and be that awful. I realized that people who are unhappy write awful reviews. I decided to take a chance because they were highly referred. I am so glad I did. I got my takes lowered a LOT…I mean a lot. Their offices are clean, professional and friendly. I also asked about a problem for my mom and they were able to tell me what to do on the spot. I love this place. Thank you.

  6. Karla and her group have been wonderful to work with.

    Karla and her group have been wonderful to work with. For the first time in my business I feel I am truly being taken care of.

  7. Karla Dennis & Associates are amazing.

    Karla Dennis & Associates are amazing. Their knowledge and passion for tax law are unrivaled I love that they are willing to share their knowledge in the workshops they host and in the free 30 minute consultation.

    I haven’t trusted anyone with my taxes in over 15 years. Luckily I found Karla Dennis & Associates. They are professional and meet their commitments. KDA has saved me thousands of dollars and I am recommending them to everyone I know.
