Where it all began
Our History
In 1993 if you opened the garage door of Ken Cerini’s home you wouldn’t have found a car, bicycles, or boxes. Instead you would have seen a couple of desks, some computers, a table, and chairs, two of which were eagerly awaiting some clients. This marked the beginning of what we now know as Cerini & Associates, LLP.
Cerini & Associates, LLP was started on the basis of strong client relations. With eight years of experience working for a “big six” accounting firm, Ken had a different vision of what an accounting firm and its staff should embody in how they served their clients and the impact each accountant had on his/her clients’ operations and bottom lines. It wasn’t about building a practice that focused on its own bottom line profits or extolled big corporate philosophies that didn’t leave room for creativity and responsiveness, it was about building a relationship with clients that went way beyond a balance sheet and a tax return; a vision that continues to guide the way Cerini & Associates, LLP still does business today.
Cerini & Associates now proudly boasts a staff of over 70 professionals, 7 partners, and a growing list of new and enhanced services.
Cerini & Associates, LLP is a full-service accounting firm committed to delivering the expertise and professionalism of a Big Four firm with the personal touch and attention to detail that only a local, mid-sized firm can provide.
