OUR CLIENTS

“There’s a massive shortage of good accountants, so getting the proper attention and service from your accounting firm is not always easy.   Being a fast growing tech company with a lot of needs, I’m really glad we solidified the relationship with Welch and 1Valet.  1Valet is well setup for success with Welch’s support on accounting and tax matters, and will benefit from all the important business advice that comes along with proper advisors.”

Francois Forrest, VP Finance, 1Valet

“I must say I am super impressed with the Welch team. Responsiveness, knowledge and customer service is top notch and unparallell to any other North American firm I have worked with in the past. We feel very taken care of as a customer and that is much appreciated, especially as we enter a new country far away from home.”

Christoffer Haeger, Group Accounting & Reporting Specialist, Epidemic Sound

“Welch is much larger (260+ professionals) than most regional accounting firms, part of BKR International which has member firms all over the globe, and the partner (Bryan Haralovich) is one of the best technology auditors in the business. They actually teach other firms for the CICA/CPA Canada and their technology tax group is phenomenal as well. From a customer service perspective, nobody compares to Welch and they are very reasonable on fees.”

Mark Scott, CPA CA, Founder & CEO, CareWorx Managed IT.
