Access the financial expertise your company needs to thrive.

I cannot recommend Bethany Hong highly enough – she is highly-skilled, hard-working and good-natured.  Bethany really came through in a pinch for us when we were trying to clear some thorny 280G issues in a fast-moving acquisition for a start-up technology client that had never previously even prepared financial statements.  Bethany immediately gained the trust of the client and worked directly with him to resolve all the issues prior to closing.  We and, more importantly, our client are very grateful to Bethany for the great work she did to help us navigate the tricky 280G landscape in order to successfully conclude the pending acquisition on time.  We would welcome the opportunity to work with Bethany again in a heartbeat!

All of us at Meryx liked working with Lynne. When I decided to retire, Lynne took over my position and did it seamlessly. After Meryx was purchased, Lynne was instrumental in helping do all the necessary accounting work for the merger and also continued on to make sure the new company had everything at their fingertips for a smooth transition. The things I like the most about Lynne is that she is very easy to work with and most importantly is very good at what she does professionally as a CPA. Lynne was a delight to work with. I would hire her again in a flash.

Huge thanks to Beth for an incredibly timely introduction. The team she connected us with brought exactly the expertise we needed and jumped in right away to help get our project back on track.

It’s clear that Beth has cultivated a powerful network of knowledgeable, responsive, and collaborative professionals. We’re truly grateful for the support!

NCEPS completed a state employment audit and passed with flying colors thanks to Jaye McDermott, our Rankin McKenzie part-time Controller. In fact, the auditors’ visit was very short as she was so impressed with our books and records. We have been very pleased with our RM resource and feel like she is an integral part of our team. We have enjoyed her support and look forward to a continued strong relationship.

During the past three years of working with Larry, his strategic guidance has been invaluable to our company, and he has positioned us for continued growth.  For example, Larry created a detailed ROI analysis of all of our services, which helped us become more profitable. In addition, he completed financial models to assist us with capital equipment purchases. 

Larry is always eager to help and support us, even when he’s not in the office.  Larry’s professionalism, strong business acumen, experience and connections in the financial community combined with his integrity, work ethic and attention to detail make him an outstanding partner. I am grateful to be able to work with him.

Due to an unexpected medical situation, our CFO was going to miss 2 to 6 weeks of work – with little ability to communicate with us at all.  We contacted Rankin McKenzie and within a couple of days met with Angie, and she felt like a perfect fit.  She spent a few days with our CFO and quickly got up to speed.  It was a great comfort having her take over the day to day finances for a couple of months until our CFO was able to return to work full-time.

We engaged Robert when we needed deeper financial insight and experienced guidance to move our business forward. A fractional CFO proved to be exactly the right fit.

From the outset, Robert took the time to understand our business and quickly made an impact. His thoughtful, deliberate approach led to clear, actionable recommendations, and he became a trusted member of our leadership team, contributing well beyond the finance function. His experience and insight shone throughout the engagement.

Most importantly, Robert helped us uncover a significant hidden issue in our financial health and guided us toward a path forward—something we will always be grateful for. He also developed our first-ever budget, immediately improving decision-making and increasing visibility into potential risks. Bringing on our Rankin McKenzie partner was an absolute game-changer for us.

Tom’s expertise and thoughtful approach was key to driving our growth and professionalizing our organization. He helped us think about our business in ways we hadn’t previously and unlocked areas of investment we hadn’t contemplated. Further, Tom’s caring and professional approach has enabled us to navigate difficult choices with confidence and clarity. During our 5+ years of working with Tom, he has not only been a great advisor and CFO but has also grown into a professional friend as well.

The short answer is that our part-time Controller, Denise Huska, was the best “consultant” I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. First and foremost, she’s extremely smart. A person doesn’t need to work with her very long to realize that. Her consistently positive attitude is contagious. It didn’t matter if things were going well or if we were struggling a bit, she always radiated the feeling that everything will be just fine. We always felt that we were, to borrow a phrase, “in good hands”. And we always were. Our RM Controller fit in extremely well with our staff. She is instantly likable and always did her best to minimize interruptions to employees’ time. She’s very organized and always came to meetings well-prepared. Working with her always felt more like a personal, friend-to-friend type of relationship than simply a business one. To summarize, her top-notch business and interpersonal skills are second to none, and I’ve learned a great deal from her on both fronts. She does excellent work and is truly a pleasure to work with. Paragon is in a much sounder financial position now as a direct result of her efforts.

A valuable asset to Fast Lane is how you would describe our former part-time Controller, Lynne Hicks. Having assisted our accounting department in all aspects of our accounting procedures for over six years, she was always dependable, knowledgeable, and accessible. Fast Lane’s continuous growth and addition of new revenue opportunities in multiple countries equates to the need of a controller who can be available to answer questions at any time throughout the work week as well as coming into our office unexpectedly when problems arise. She was someone we could depend on to guide us in our following of GAAP. Our RM Controller paid great attention to detail, focusing on all issues, whether large or small. The commitment to excellent service to Fast Lane is greatly appreciated and an important component of our company’s success.
