“I worked with RHJ on a very complicated tax issue from 2022 where another accountancy firm made an error when filing. I worked with the team for a year to get it resolved which required additional paperwork and several messages back and forth with the IRS. They were very patient with me and explained what steps to take and knew exactly how to fix the issue. I also worked with their legal team to translate documents and they got completed very quickly. I couldn't recommend their services more!”
