“We are very pleased and excited to be the first member in North America joining MGI Worldwide from CPAAI and we are enthusiastic about the prospect of working together with all of the member firms across the network.”

California probate accounting specialists

Experienced in a unique area of practice that most firms don’t cover, O&S CPAs & Business Advisors can support clients involved in the probate or legal system who have to do fiduciary accounting. Their fiduciary accounting services are backed up with the standard CPA’s “Double Entry Accounting” so they can communicate with attorneys, trustees, beneficiaries and offer them solid backup to evaluate their work. This transparency reduces the potential for controversy and allows each stakeholder an understanding of the financial issues.

Customised full-service accounting solutions

Partner, Cynthia Schoelen says,

“We offer client accounting services where we take over the entire back office of a nonprofit or for-profit business through cloud-based accounting software to give clients real-time numbers to help them make the decisions that are best for their business.”
