Working with Schneider Downs has been an absolute game-changer for our business. Their Tax and Audit teams, especially Carl Scharf, Sarah Hoagland, and Brandon Embreus, are unmatched in expertise and dedication. From day one, they took the time to understand the unique aspects of our company and developed strategies tailored to our needs. What I appreciate the most is their proactive approach; they always keep me informed of tax-saving opportunities, regulatory changes, and potential risks, so there are never any surprises. Every member of the team is approachable, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable — they make our complex world of accounting feel simple and manageable. In a world where customer service often falls short, Schneider Downs stands out with their unwavering commitment to their clients. They’re not just our accountants; they’re trusted partners who genuinely care about our success.

Jim Yard, Jessica Miller and team are first class in everything they do. They are a wealth of experience and knowledge and share that expertise with our Management team and Board. I have worked with numerous firms in my 25+ career and Schneider Downs is the best when it comes to communication, transparency and high-quality work product. We could not be happier with our relationship, and they are a source of strength in our overall risk management framework.
