Lalea & Black, LTD

We have been using Lalea & Black for various advisory functions for the last couple
years. Their CPA’s are extremely knowledgeable and have always provided forward
looking creative solutions. Their tax advice is proactive coming up with various
solutions to some complicated issues. We recently migrated our internal accounting
to their e-​Dashboard business management platform. It significantly reduced the
cost of our back office and we couldn’t be happier that our books are being
managed by reliable professionals. We’ve typically had good bookkeepers,
but they were constantly turning over and retraining people on our business started to
become a real distraction. We’re now confident that our reporting is accurate and the
AP/​AR cycles are a breeze since they are virtually automated. Amazingly, we’ve
almost convinced our lenders to no longer require complied financial statements
since our books are managed by outside CPA’s!
To sum it up, we’re extremely pleased with Lalea & Black’s level of professionalism,
expertise and the services they provide us!
