My family and I are second generation clients of Graham & Associates and have always found Janice and her staff to be honest, ethical, professional, and extremely caring for her clients. Janice and her team handle all our tax preparation and retirement questions and concerns. We are extremely pleased with how Janice & her associates have handled our family business for many years. My family and I would highly recommend Janice & her associates for all your tax and financial management needs.

I am sharing my experience with Janice Graham, CPA, and her firm, Graham & Associates CPAs PC, to warn others about their fraudulent, unethical, and illegal business practices. My experience is fully documented in written communications and involves them committing intentional tax fraud, deceptive business practices, and a violation of professional and fiduciary duties.
The Issue:

In 2024, I was assured by Janice Graham that my business expenses for 2024 would be fully tax-deductible and that her firm would properly file my tax return to account for them, while she pressured me to transfer my inherited retirement account at Empower into her control at Avantax.
When the time came to file my 2024 tax return, I submitted $40,000+ in legitimate business expenses that should have been deducted to lower my tax liability and increase my refund.
Instead, Graham & Associates falsely misrepresented my business status, refused to properly apply my deductions, and attempted to overstate my taxable income in violation of IRS regulations and federal tax law.
Additionally, as stated I was pressured to transfer my retirement assets into their financial supervision, and when I declined, my tax return was suddenly mishandled and improperly filed.
When I questioned these unlawful actions, Janice Graham abruptly withdrew from the engagement, refusing to complete the work she had agreed to perform.

Why This Matters:

This is not just bad accounting—this is fraud & extortion. Falsifying tax returns, misrepresenting business expenses, and attempting to manipulate financial decisions are federal offenses under 26 U.S. Code §§ 7201, 7206 (Tax Fraud), 18 U.S. Code § 1343 (Wire Fraud), and 15 U.S.C. § 45 (Deceptive Business Practices).
If I had signed the incorrect tax return they prepared, I would have been held legally responsible for their fraudulent filing.
They discriminated against me as a disabled individual & small business owner by falsely assuming my business was not active due to inconsistent income, violating the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.) & other relevant Federal Protections.
Their conduct was financially motivated and part of a larger pattern of financial misconduct, extortion, fraud & deceptive business practices.

Final Warning to Others:

If you are considering working with Janice Graham, CPA, or Graham & Associates CPAs PC, I strongly urge you to reconsider. They knowingly misrepresent tax obligations, pressure clients into financial decisions for their own gain, and violate professional ethics and legal standards. I will be reporting their misconduct to the IRS, the Colorado State Board of Accountancy, the Colorado Attorney General, and other relevant authorities.

Protect yourself and your finances—do not trust this firm.
