Privately-Held Business Specialists

Dugan & Lopatka is one of the largest public accounting firms in the Chicago area, but one of the only large CPA firms to specialize almost exclusively on privately-held, small and mid-sized businesses.

There is a noticeable difference between the level of service and personal attention provided by accounting firms that serve privately-held small and mid-sized businesses. The small accounting firms lack the depth of staff, experience and expertise found at Dugan & Lopatka. The large accounting firms won’t dedicate their best people to small and midsized businesses and the partners are generally only involved for client billings. Small and mid-sized businesses are not their target market.

Dugan & Lopatka is dedicated to serving small and mid-sized, closely-held companies. Our clients can readily see that difference in our innovative ideas, the rewards we bring to them from having a great deal of experience working with companies like yours and through the quality and timeliness of our work.
