Reliable Attestation Services for Your Financial Needs
What We Offer
Our Attestation Services
Most often, organizations require audits because banks, investors, creditors, or regulatory bodies need an independent auditor’s opinion on the accuracy of their financial statements. An audit offers the highest level of assurance that your financials are fairly presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We tailor our audit approach to suit your business, drawing on deep industry experience and a clear understanding of your operations to deliver insights that go beyond compliance. Whether you're a nonprofit, startup, private company, or government entity, we provide audit services aligned with your sector’s specific regulatory and reporting needs
A financial review provides limited assurance that your financial statements are fairly presented, without the depth of a full audit. Reviews are often requested by third parties—such as investors or lenders—who require a basic level of assurance without the rigor of an audit. Conducted under the Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services (SSARS), a review does not typically include testing internal controls, but we may offer helpful recommendations to improve accuracy and efficiency.
Compilations are ideal if your organization needs help preparing financial statements on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. In this basic engagement, we use the financial data you provide to create statements that comply with accounting standards—without performing any audit or review procedures. While no assurance is offered, we take time to understand your business and apply a high-level, common-sense check to ensure the financials are clearly and fairly presented.

Public: Businesses whose ownership and debt securities (stock shares and bonds) are traded in public markets in the United States are required to have annual audits by an independent CPA firm.
Private: Although federal law doesn’t require audits for private businesses, banks and other lenders to private businesses may insist on audited financial statements.
