And the pandemic continues. It has materially affected how I interact with clients, and which clients I am able to meet with in person. Looks like life is going to stay this way for a while. I am grateful to all of my clients who went remote with me and made it easy to get through the pre-vaccination era without meeting face to face with anyone. I have resumed some client meetings, as sometimes in-person interaction is more effective, but that's limited to those who are vaccinated and happy to wear a mask for the meeting.

A wise man once said that you need three things in life - a good doctor, a forgiving priest, and a clever accountant. I am very thankful to have found Michael McGinnis to assist me with my taxes. I find him to be incredibly knowledgeable and he truly embodies the 4 p's :, he is patient, prompt, polite, and professional. I would certainly recommend him without hesitation. Most sincerely, Lon Branch

Here is my termination email to Mike McGinnis, CPA: Dear Mike; Please note we have retained the services of Thomas Noce, CPA, CFE. His associate Derek J. Brown, CPA, MST will be contacting in the near future regarding any crossover info, documentation, etc. that he may require. Thank you for your services in the past; I wish you continued success. Regards, Austin Basford Managing Partner, All Worlds Resorts, Inc.
All Worlds Resorts LLC --------------------------------------------------- Here is Mike McGinnis' email to my new CPA: Brian, Austin was one of those PAIN IN THE ASS CLIENTS for whom I cleaned up a truckload of huge problems that previously existed and then got fired because he became AWARE of the problems under my watch. What capped things off was when Austin received a penalty notice on delinquent W-2's for 2014, which was MISS BARTON'S team's screw-up, and, one giant PMS ATTACK later, I'm fired.
And he was kind of a thankless little bitch about it. Yeah, I'm offended. This was a huge F-ing disaster after MISS BARTON and her crew screwed up EVERYTHING, all the while billing Austin through the nose for just about everything conceivable. Last I checked. (privy info) I'm fired. He has full documentation. And I'm really busy on continuing clients. Thanks, Mike --------------------------------------------------- MIGHT HE TALK ABOUT YOU OR REFER TO YOUR PREVIOUS MALE CPA IN A FEMININE SLANDEROUS MANNER FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON SHOULD YOU DECIDE LEAVE HIM?
I have never been disrespectful to him before or after his services. The last telephone conversation was him telling me to go "F" myself.(actually 3 times during our short conversation before he hung up on me). What a temper.

We met Mike at a function and were very impressed with his involvement in the community. As a small business owner, we found that hiring Mike McGinnis was the smartest move we have ever made. From the start he recognized our need for incorporation. He thoroughly reorganized our computer programs and filing systems to the smooth operation it is today. Michael's dedication and personal involvement is a breath of fresh air and extremely rare. We can highly recommend his services and we love working with Mike and his staff.

Michael has been not only a great tax prep help on a personal level, he is an amazing resource to help me make informed choices about how to help my business. I have refer him to friends who have businesses from sole proprietor with restaurant/catering to s-corp, LLC, etc and they all appreciate his insights. I hope he continues his great work for a long, long time.

Michael McGinnis, CPA has been our CPA for several years. Even though we live far from the Palm Desert/Palm Springs area, we rely on his expert advice and accounting practice to file our corporation and personal tax returns. Mike is always accessible by email and phone. He answers promptly. He always gives us the proper advice, even if it may not be to our liking (once in a while) but is correct for the IRS and State of CA.
When my husband retired, Mike led us through the channels of corporate dissolution. We have never been audited or even questioned. If you need a great CPA, choose Michael McGinnis. You will not be disappointed.
