Transaction Services
Mergers, acquisitions and divestitures can create a temporary spike of work when most companies do not have spare resources available. Our team supports businesses on multiple fronts, on matters such as due diligence, purchase price allocations, and post-transaction integration of processes and key systems.

Technical Accounting Services*
Changes in auditor independence rules and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act have forever changed the auditor-client relationship. Auditors are limited in providing GAAP advice or offer direction on how a new or unique transaction should be handled. We fill the void left by the auditors by supplying on-demand accounting* expertise. Our professionals have extensive experience in critical reporting issues. Our experts have literally “written the book” on how to comply with many accounting standards and lecture throughout the country on current GAAP requirements and SEC reporting.
