Lawrence R Silver,attorney

Don't call him to talk about your details, He is an Attorney! and works Solo. He will not discuss your taxes over the phone. Calls are to set a time and date to walk in and see him. He spends his time only doing tax returns and no longer does CPA services. Because he is solo, most calls are during his work time with customers in front of him. You need all your accounting work with you to answer his questions. He can refer to the IRS codes on his work. He uses Professional Version of TurboTax software to E-File and print your and his copy of the return.

This man was the most horrifyingly disrespectful "professional" I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. I telephoned for help in my deceased father's estate as Mr. Silver had done his corporate tax return for years. He did not offer any condolences for his passing when I informed him who I was; he only stated "oh yeah, I read his obituary in the Houston Chronicle". I asked for help in getting information needed to complete a tax return, tried to tell him what paperwork I had, and he interrupted me several times. After I repeatedly tried to tell him what documents I had, he said "well you have already disagreed with me ten times, so I don't know what you want." At that point, I told him he had been interrupting me, and I cannot believe that my father would have done business with him. After criticizing some of the statements I made with regard to where my father had documents, I said you must not know my father very well. He then said, "that's it. I am not talking anymore." and hung up on me. Needless to say, I will NOT be paying him to do my deceased father's corporate tax return. In fact, I would not ask this man to do anything for anyone as he is unprofessional, rude, and disrespectful. In addition, he answers his own office phone, which leads me to presume his office staff has vacated the premises as well. Negative numbers of stars are too many for this man's manners and behavior.

Called him for his services, and he said he only does Tax returns. I asked if he did balance sheets, income statements or cash flow statements and he said I could do it myself... Then what is his job again? Rude.

I have been going to Larry for 10 years now and he has always been helpful and straight up. He is a straight up guy and I will always use him.
