Audit & Assurance

Accurate financial information is critical to decision making, and an audit should be the first line of defense.  A quality audit includes delivering timely insight, promoting transparency and providing constructive feedback. Each company is unique and therefore each audit should be as well. We take the time to understand our client’s operations and its stakeholders to create an audit strategy that addresses identified risks.  

Our Audit and Assurance services are comprised of the following:

• Financial statement audits
• Financial statement reviews
• System and Organization Controls (SOC) audits
• Employee benefit plan audits
• Federal acquisition regulation (FAR) audits

Today’s tax system is more complex and fluid than ever, which creates significant challenges and opportunities for businesses and individuals.  You need a firm that provides clear, informed, and considered guidance that supports integrated tax-efficient solutions.  Our goal is to give you the confidence to excel in a sustainable way and to achieve your strategic objectives.
