Gil and his staff have completely ignored my emails (I have a tracker) and I have no idea about the status of any of my documents. It became some egregious that I was forced to change my credit card in order to halt payments, and neither Gil nor anyone on his staff said a word about it. I have texted, emailed, called - everything - and there is no response. I am literally in danger of being penalized or audited due to Gil's terrible business practices. The whole situation is extremely shady, STAY AWAY.

If you don’t like waiting over a year for your tax refund, and you don’t like being ignored, don’t hire this team. Once they have your money, don’t expect to hear from them again. Gil told our family we were receiving a hefty refund after we paid him in full to amend our tax returns. That was well over a year ago, we have gotten vague updates in the past and they won’t even respond to my emails now. We decided to have them file our 2023 taxes as well and guess what? They become responsive until we pay in full again.

I used Scout financial for a few years until they failed me after filing and I refused to pay after getting notices from the IRS that Gil Pocker of Scout Financial failed to assist to address the issues. Never again. 😡

I’ve been using TurboTax for years! But this year it gave me results that didn’t make sense. Gil came in and saved the day. He’s extremely knowledgeable, meticulous and responsive. He made the dreadful tax season a joy and walked me through everything I needed to know and more. I highly recommend his services.

TurboTax failed me so I reached out to Gil. He is professional, meticulous and responsive. He worked hard to have the taxes filed right before deadline, and was able to give useful advice as well as walking me through the process to where I can better understand my options. Highly recommend their services!

I was referred to Gil and Scout Financial through a friend of mine who did his taxes with Scout. I usually do my own taxes through TurboTax, but decided to give it a shot with a tax expert. Reached out to Gil (very professional), asked me very detailed questions and was able to get me a higher refund than what I got on TurboTax. Highly recommended and will continue to work with Gil on my tax filings in the future!

I honestly thought I would never own a home in Los Angeles. Going from open house to open house, just to be outbid by some anonymous money monster who roams the dark corners of the Los Angeles real estate market, was frustrating, to say the least. But Scout Financial came through and helped me get my small slice of the city I have grown to love. The team at Scout Financial, Edward and Sabrina, exhibited the professionalism, consistency, and understanding that a company created to help people make what will likely be the largest purchase and investment in their lives should have. They provided the right amount of encouragement and in-depth knowledge that helped me determine what I was looking for and educated me on the process of purchasing a home. I'm genuinely impressed with the level of service Scout Financial has provided. As a first-time homebuyer, I can honestly say that I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. Just a group of dope people.

After being a teacher for 38 years I decided it was time to retire. As you can imagine the paperwork that is involved with retirement is incredibly confusing and overwhelming. The team at Scout was kind enough to spend the time to walk me through all of the documents and explain each one in great detail. I can’t express how grateful I am. I’d highly recommend them to any friends and family. Thank you again!!

Super happy with the service I was provided with in the sale of my old home and purchase of my new one. Andrea was always available and made the process painless. Edward is knowledgeable and made sure I got the most bang for my buck.
