My husbands grandpa transfer over his business fully to my husband. The person they had doing taxes and the books was very inconsistent. The tax person isn’t registered through the board of accountants in Ohio. He has terrible reviews.

Now that my husband is the owner he took his accounts to a different place. And they have been doing years worth of digging on many years of taxes that haven’t been paid and lots of penalties. This is stuff that his grandparents paid the other person to do but was never actually done.

He has a lawyer and a new cpa company. They both have tried to reach out to the old person who was handling all of this and neither of them have been able to get what they have asked for? The old person is ghosting everyone.

The lawyer said we shouldn’t take him to court to get the money back for services he never actually did because at the time it was also his grandparents responsibility to make sure it was getting done as well. But I’m more concerned about company information, documents and what not that he still has in his office. But also I would like to mention that I don’t believe this situation is this lawyers specialty. He did help my husband’s grandparents transfer the business and a house into my husband’s name. But this seems like it’s leaning more like criminal or fraud situation.
