John Kasperek

Kasperek & Co. Accountants has provided our business tax prep, annual bookkeeping reconciliation and business/personal tax return filings for 4 years. For 2019, they prepared the business return with six (6) miscategorized transaction errors totaling $122,225.00, which then created highly overstated pass-thru net income, resulting in a massive personal tax liability, including penalties and interest. We contacted John Kasperek, informing him that our business was engaging a tax specialist firm to investigate the reported large personaly tax liability. The firm owner, John Kasperek, became irate, rude, and completely unprofessional in his email response, including offensive language unbecoming of a trusted tax professional. And quote,"Fri, Apr 2, 1:25 PM I AM DISAPPOINTED AND INSULTED THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT ANOTHER FIRM INVOLVED. WHAT THE F—CK YOU THINK THEY ARE GOING TO FIND? IT WILL BE FOR NOUGHT!!! -JK" The specialist tax firm confirmed (6) miscategorized revenue vs. expense errors and the evidence was forwarded to Kasperek & Co. for correction and amended filing. The company and owner dodged requests for weeks until his recent outright refusal to correct the errors. He went as far as to send an invoice for filing a personal tax return extension, then tried to say that because we hadn't paid him for that yet (literally just filing an extension) that he wouldn't consider any further work - on the original work that they erred. Then, if it couldn't get more insulting, he attempted to manipulate a hold harmless agreement so we couldn't pursue him or his firm any longer, in exchange for him dropping a small invoice for work that couldn't even have been completed - since the personal tax return was subject to a final & completed business return! I couldn't write this if I tried, folks. In summary, we've lost $4300.00 for an incomplete, error-filled business tax return. Now another, more competent and professional firm must be hired to correct and refile at our additional expense and late penalties. Kasperek Co. and the owner have violated AICPA Standards (notably No.2.3b, 2.3c, and 2.6), as well as violated his duty to maintain an appropriate level of professional care, skill, diligence, and public trust, as decreed by the FASB. In addition to the recommendation to NEVER work with them...they need to be investigated for violations and be professionally reprimanded, censured or even potentially stripped of their license.
