History:
Decades of Experience
We have always focused on quality and responsiveness, even as our firm has grown from provide traditional accounting, audit, and tax services to a more critical role as our clients’ trusted advisor, providing assurance, financial reporting, tax strategies, outsourced accounting, and consulting in a wide variety of specialized situations. We give our business clients the information they need to run their companies and help them make decisions on how to profitably grow. One thing that has not changed has been our approach. We believe in providing quality, thoughtful service in a timely fashion. We also understand that, no matter how technically competent we are, it means nothing if we are unable to listen and communicate effectively with our clients.
Location
We are located in the heart of the northwest suburbs of Chicago, where we can easily service clients throughout the metropolitan Chicago area, and we are convenient to Metra trains, expressways, and O’Hare airport. We make full use of these various forms of transportation as we service our business clients throughout our local area, the Midwest region, and the country.
Experience Matters
Our partners and staff provide “hands-on” experience to help you make informed decisions. Each of them understands that while the details are critically important, the big picture must remain in clear focus at all times. Our clients benefit from the diverse personal and professional backgrounds of our staff and their experiences. Unlike larger firms that utilize much younger staff members amid layers of bureaucracy, virtually all of our members have years of experience, and they interact directly with you to give you the benefit of their insight. They are committed to helping ensure the success of our clients. |
