I usually do not write reviews about things, even when I get ripped off, but this was a case where I felt I have to speak out so no one else will be ripped off from David Hunter of IRS Tax Doctors again. It started back in early April I had a old business tax problem I needed some assistance with and I found David Hunter of IRS Tax Doctors on the internet. I called and left a message and about 12 hours later received a call back from David Hunter. We talked about my problem and we scheduled an appointment for me to come to what I thought was an office.
The day of the appointment I arrived at not an Office but David Hunters run down apartment. I knocked on the door and there was no answer I called a few times figuring I was early and he just had not gotten back yet after waiting 45 minutes and no one showing up I left. About 5 hours later I got another call from David Hunter of Irs Tax Doctors, he claimed that he had a family emergency and was unable to call me to cancel the appointment, this should have tipped me off but I have a trusting nature and gave him the benefit of the doubt.
I hired him and sent a $200 retainer which I was suppose to receive a receipt for and never did. When I hired him we scheduled a time to have a phone conference with the agent that was handling my case. I waited by the phone at the time specified and there was no call from David Hunter from IRS Tax Doctor. After about 45 min of waiting I called him and left messages on his cell phone about 30 min later I get a call from him from his girlfriends home phone, at this point I am extremely worried about the professionalism David Hunter shows, he claims to be a big shot Tax negotiator but I have very serious doubts any of his claims are true. So I am ready for this phone meeting with the agent handling my case and David Hunter but instead he called the IRS help line to ask questions about points of tax law that I could have answered for him. We never did call the case worker instead he said he would make the call that afternoon and call me back.
Two weeks later and I still had not heard back from Mr Hunter, I left messages sent emails all went unanswered finally a few weeks later after calling what I think was his girlfriends phone I got a text message from David Hunter stating that my Irs agent would not answer the phone or return his calls. WE kept this up for almost 3 months him never talking to me directly on texting me and text very little maybe once or twice. I finally sent an angry email asking for a refund of my $200
You got it. I have never in 12 years practicing at a very high level, going to tax court, being an advisor to Senate staff on hearings on IRS abuse, which led to reform and the taxpayers bill of rights. So I am not some fly by night tax acct. Your IRS case worker is one of the worst at returning or even answering his phone. I also have approx 15-18 cases at any one time, and I can assure you, that at the end of my time working with these clients, they will all think I walk on water, as I see things thru, and usually with a winning bent. You have been very lax also when it came to this case. I mentioned to someone last week, when I wondered aloud if this was very important to you. You say in your e-mail request that you think I may have put in an hour.in reading and answering e-mails, approx 2-3.in calling the IRS on your behalf and in meeting you to pk up the retainer because you could not come to my office and the thinking and reading that I put into your case an hour was easily reached. As per the absolute average of what one in my profession with my experience and educational background charges as a fee per hour it is $175 per hour. I will gladly refund the difference $25 and chalk it up to live and learn. My aim was not to "steal" you $175, I would have liked to seen the case thru and earned $400-$500 which is what happens on 99.9999999999% of my cases. I will mail out to you the refund tomorrow
AS you can already guess I never even received the $25.00. I can say for a fact at this point he never made 1 phone call to the IRS on my behalf. I asked for a detailed billing statement and never received anything he is back to not answering emails or phone calls. Also notice he claims I am lax in this after all the phone calls and emails I made to him pushing him every step of the way. I hired him to do the work how can I be lax. Also he states in the email that he discussed my case with other people I find this a huge invasion of privacy. Since then I have done a little research about David Hunter and cannot find anything to support any of the claims he makes in the email about his background as well I was unable to find a business license for his company registered with, Las Vegas or Clark County. So before you consider hiring David Hunter of IRS Tax Doctors do your research first.
