Went to Ron again for our taxes this year. He makes tax season very easy and gave us recommendations on how to improve for next year. Highly recommend.

I've been a Crescere Group client for nearly a decade, and they've been an invaluable partner through some of my life's most significant transitions. Their expertise has guided me through various life stages—as a married woman, a divorced woman, and a grieving daughter—handling everything from estate taxes to navigating numerous career changes and managing complex medical deductions. Their support has been exceptional, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Such unprofessional and rude front desk. They made a mistake on my return and barely showed any remorse and were reluctant to follow up and assist after the fact. Not recommended.

Proceed with Caution: My Experience with Ron Mussett
I initially worked with Ron to set up my LLC taxed as an S-corp. He was helpful during the initial process, but unfortunately, the execution was flawed. He made repeated administrative errors, such as filing paperwork incorrectly, missing deadlines, and even misspelling my name and my company’s name multiple times. While I initially overlooked these mistakes, things only worsened over time.
One of my biggest concerns was Ron’s reluctance to answer questions beyond quarterly payroll tax filings. I often felt like an annoyance rather than a valued client. More critically, he failed to inform me that I wasn’t making estimated personal income tax payments, which led to a substantial tax bill for 2024—complete with penalties. Based on my experience with him, I expect he would say this wasn’t his responsibility, but better communication could have prevented the issue.
Additionally, his tax planning knowledge was not the right fit. For instance, he was unfamiliar with Solo 401(k) plans and only recommended SEP IRAs, which didn’t align with my financial strategy. He also would push back against strategies like structuring payroll for my spouse, paying her the max required for a 401(k) contribution, and “netting out.” Beyond these shortcomings, his overall responsiveness was mediocre to poor—not just during tax season but consistently throughout the year. He was only reachable via email and rarely by phone, making it difficult to get timely responses.
To be fair, Ron is very affordable compared to other CPAs. At the time, I was paying a fraction of what I pay now. However, I’ve come to realize that paying three times as much for my new CPA is well worth it—because at least now, I don’t have IRS penalties, unexpected tax bills, or unanswered questions. My new CPA is available via phone and Zoom, open to one-on-one consultations, and takes the time to ensure I understand my tax strategy.
If you’re looking for a CPA who provides proactive guidance, strategic tax planning, and clear explanations, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Just as we expect doctors to have bedside manner, I believe a CPA should show a level of respect and care for their clients. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I often felt disregarded, and the lack of communication left me with IRS penalty letters, an unexpected tax bill, and a new CPA who is now cleaning up the mess.
Ultimately, I take responsibility for not holding Ron accountable sooner. However, if you choose to work with him, be prepared to take a very hands-on approach and ensure you fully understand what he is offering. I’ve since found a CPA who is a much better fit—someone who takes the time to explain tax-saving strategies, aligns with my long-term financial goals, and ensures I won’t be blindsided by another massive tax bill in 2025.

I found the Crescere group from the positive reviews on Google and Yelp, and I am certainly glad I did.
Ron is a tax wizard. He helped me both with my business taxes and personal taxes, and WOW was I impressed with his knowledge. His expertise was such a relief to be able to lean on this year.
Ron also has a unique since of humor, which may not be for everyone, but it made paying taxes oddly relaxing for me (and dare I say, even enjoyable).
Would strongly recommend Ron for both business and personal tax needs!

Ron and his team are incredibly reliable and trustworthy. We were referred by our previous cpa that retired and we could not be happier with the results. Yes, tax time is always scary, but when you have Crescere Group by your side, just know, you will be taken care of.

Been with Karen since 2019. I came with her as a client when she joined and will continue to use her services every year. She is very quick and thorough. I have never had any problems. This year I got my tax refund within a week.

Ron does not return phone calls or answer questions after your return is filed. I find him very unprofessional. Do not recommend this place.

Apr 1st. 2023.Ron Mussett and Eric Bailey from Crescere Group ignored critical for the tax return info(Cost Segregated Depreciation Study), even when I told them in advance, loud and clear, and I provided the Study. Apr 2nd 2023. My mistake - I paid them before I checked their work. I checked only the next day - and then found their omission. When I requested correction, Crescere Group made me wait for them for 40 days. May 11th 2023. Finally, Ron admitted he does not know what Cost Segregated Depreciation is! He even claimed there is no such thing in the world! Why he didn't say it from the beginning? It takes just 5 minutes to find IRS Guide for Cost Segregated Depreciation on the IRS website. Why Crescere Group failed find it in 40 days? Why they never asked me for help? I would google for them! May 12th I sent Crescere Group links to the IRS Cost Segregated Depreciation guide, on IRS website. I requested Ron and Eric either complete job they promised to deliver, or provide refund. After that - Crescere Group become silent, as of writing this May 17th 2023. I can not imagine a good reason for that. P.S. It is fine to know nothing about multi areas of Tax Code, even when you are a CPA. As far as you know - what areas you are competent. That's how a lot of professionals do work. It is a mistake to ignore info and documentation that your customer provided to you. It is NOT fine to cover up your mistake. It is very NOT fine to not refund your customer when you failed to deliver.
