Our verdict

A CPA built specifically for acquisition entrepreneurs, covering everything from pre-LOI screening through post-close tax strategy. Their complaint about the rest of the market is that most CPAs come in for one piece of the deal and then disappear.

✓ Why they passed vetting

They start before the LOI with a deal screen and a consult, which is when advice is worth the most and hardest to get. Financial due diligence sized to the deal rather than a one-size package. Tax structuring of the acquisition itself, not just the return afterwards. They stay past the close, which is the part most buyers say they were missing.

✕ The heads-up

Nothing negative has come back to us. Anything that does will be published here.
