VerBout Services Lake St, Forest Lake

Professional, thorough and efficient. Filed on a Sunday afternoon and received my state refund 4 days later into my bank account. All I have to do is get the documentation together and taxes are done for the year. Thanks Kerry!

They do my taxes and I did everything the way I was instructed. Now the IRS will be coming after me. I have been going there for 45 years and now any problems are mine. Never go there. There's place that that will see to it that your taxes are done right and filled.

I will never bring my taxes there again! I brought my taxes there almost 2 months before the tax deadline and received a email from them saying that they had to file a extension because they didn't get them done in time! Then they charged me $200 to do my taxes with no itemized deductions and my property tax.

Very poor communication. Initial meeting was very rushed.Not very open to questions or discussion. Would not use again. They came referred by my financial advisor. I have let him know about my experience.

I have had my taxes done at VerBout three years in a row now, but this year was my last. I scheduled my appointment for February 24th (I am confident in this as it was repeated back to me), but when I arrived I was informed that my appointment was actually March 24th. I imagine that since the days of those months are the same, the receptionist either told me or recorded it incorrectly. I will give credit with this situation, however, as my preparer nicely “squeezed me in” so I wouldn’t have to come back. There was an item that needed to be double checked by my preparer, so I left the appointment *already having paid* but waiting on an email of confirmation. I reached out after about 6 weeks and received no response. A week later, I called and left a message with the receptionist and was promised an email by the end of the week. That email never came. After calling again the following week, I finally did reach my preparer who had the answer, but had never emailed me. Overall I have lost confidence in my preparer and this business as a whole. My taxes were done adequately to my knowledge, but I won’t be returning next year.

I am absolutely shocked at how poor the customer service was that I just received from Karl. Go somewhere else, anywhere else. I provided all of my documents via their portal. I then, received a call from an office Admin letting me know that my taxes are done. I asked to speak to Karl to ask a man for few questions, being the ONLY direct interaction throughout the process. He said that “he didn’t have time for this” and “that I called him at a bad time.” In fact, they called me two times in 10 minutes out of the blue on a Sunday, where it was me trying you accommodate their time. Karl hung up on me after a short 3 minute phone call and said the was sending my stuff back. Karl is incredibly unprofessional and does not deserve your business. I asked for a total of 5 mints of his direct time and he made that seem unreasonable.

My husband and I have used Kerry at VerBout for our taxes the last two years and she was incredible to work with. I just had an appointment for my own small business, had to bring my two small kids, and she was the best. She was patient with my kids and showed grace and understanding to me when I really didn't know much about the tax/business side of my creative small business. Highly recommend working with her.

My wife and I have been seeing Kerry for several years now and we appreciate her knowledge and willingness to answer all our questions. She has helped us in several tax situations, including rental property and non-profit. Leave your anxiety about taxes at the door! VerBout has you covered.

We have been trusting our tax preparation with VerBout Services for many years. A wonderful place for all your tax needs. Great staff, extremely knowlegable, and priced fairly. We would recommend their service(s) for anyone in need of tax preparation.

Jon was great! He had our family’s best interest in mind in preparing our taxes. Not only did he get the job done, he provided us with great feedback and recommendations on what to do financially moving forward. We will absolutely file our taxes again, with Jon, next year.
