At that time our managing partner, Michael S. Chakonis, CPA, saw an opportunity to utilize his broad range of experience gathered while working for the industry leader by starting his own company. Since then the company has expanded and in 2001 added Edward A. Pettit, Jr., CPA to its staff and eventually as a partner in 2008. At this time the firm continues to expand and create opportunities to assist our clients.
