Worked on Case Together | Apr 24, 2024
I have made several referrals to Ronnie to handle Tax Resolution cases with the California Franchise Tax Board. Ronnie immediately began working these cases. Specifically, on the last referral, she immediately contacted the Franchise Tax Board and was able to get a Wage Garnishment released with the first phone call and set the client up on an Installment Agreement. Great work from Ronnie and I look forward to working with her on future cases.

Advised on Unpaid Taxes, Past Due Tax Return, Tax Lien, Passport Issues | Jul 11, 2026
Ronnie was able to help with a vast array of issues with the IRS. She knew what steps to take immediately given the situation at hand. Her experience in working with the IRS was key. She has credibility that helps the tax payer get a resolution that they wouldn’t be able to do on their own. Very grateful to her for all of her hard work and guidance.

My husband and I love Ronnie!

Ronnie knows her stuff and is super thorough! Beyond thankful, we found her. We will use her for life!

Ronnie makes it stress free. What we love about her is that she is highly ethical, Cari no and knows her stuff!

We are not spring chickens. We used other tax professionals in the past and they made one too many mistakes.

Thank you Ronnie 🙏
