and nobody picked upon the CPA firm I know who would agree to representing fraudulent paperwork?
I picked up on it, but I would not be interested in preparing fraudulent documents. I think most CPAs know their stuff, but I think some of them rely too much on non-professionals that they hire to do most of the work on smaller accounts. If you hire a CPA, I would suggest that you ask them questions about the product they produce for you to ensure that they actually participated in producing it.
