Furrer & Associates, Inc CPAs was founded in 2003 as a Cleveland area CPA firm. With a staff of 7 dedicated employees, we are able to provide a wide variety of services to small businesses and individuals throughout Northeast Ohio. Many of our clients are family owned businesses. To meet the needs of each client, we tailor our services to accounting, tax, and business advisor services. To better meet the needs of our clients, we have individualized services for clients in industries like technology based businesses, construction, manufacturing, real estate accounting and other service related industries. These individualized services have enabled us to address their industry specific challenges, compliance needs and standard tax and accounting practices. Because many of our clients are family owned businesses, as we were originally, we have developed an expertise in helping families transfer management of family businesses in an equitable manner. We totally understand both the human and financial elements involved with these transitions. We approach each client relationship as if we were business partners in their business. We take the time to know and understand the business and individual financial needs, so that we may deliver personalized service. With our hands on-approach to client service and our creativity and experience, we are able to proactively advise clients and address accounting and tax concerns that might arise before they become problems. That is why we stay involved with our clients and their businesses throughout the year. Steve is president of Furrer & Associates.
