Ron Friedman, CPA
Managing Principal
COVID-19: Since the beginning of the pandemic, our entire team has been working remotely from home. And thanks to our long-term emphasis and commitment to the best technology, we have been operating at full efficiency and continuing to bring in new work and grow the firm during this most-unusual time. At present, we do not expect to return to the office before January 1, 2021. Accommodations will continue to be in place for team members who do not feel comfortable in an office environment once the office re-opens. The safety, welfare, and health of our team, their families, and our clients is our highest priority.
A Different Kind of CPA Firm
Our core competencies are centered on providing sophisticated business, tax and financial advice to clients in growth or otherwise critical points in the business cycle. Some of our non-traditional engagements may include putting together finance packages to fund growth, structuring an acquisition or merger, succession planning, a need for systems re-engineering, or undergoing a comprehensive tax review.
Some of our clients may have outgrown their current CPA firm and are facing opportunities that call for specific skills and expertise. Other clients that migrate to our firm may in fact be getting the level of advice that matches their needs, but are missing the very fiber of a close and responsive professional relationship with their CPA endemic to success. In either case, we are quite selective about the clients we accept, making sure there is a match between the levels of expertise we deliver and our client's immediate and long term needs. We are committed to maintaining a professional yet friendly environment, which fosters great working relationships with our clients and encourages unique solutions to their challenges.
