Cohen DuFour LLP
ADVISORS OF FIRST CHOICEsm

Cohen DuFour LLP, long established in Central New Jersey, has substantial experience in providing tax planning, strategic consulting, and accounting services to closely-held businesses and their owners as well as individuals and fiduciaries. We are a local firm with a staff of dedicated professionals, most of whom are CPAs with years of public accounting background. We are proud of the fact that we have, on six consecutive occasions, received an unqualified opinion after voluntary Peer Review, a practice-monitoring program administered by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), designed to uphold the highest standards of quality in the accounting profession.

While a substantial portion of our practice is devoted to providing accounting and tax services to a diversified client base, we have significant experience in non-traditional areas. Many clients seek our expertise in Management Advisory Services, such as key employee compensation arrangements, contract negotiations, buy-sell agreements and a range of strategic planning issues, including business acquisition and disposition. We consult regularly with our clients in the development and maintenance of qualified and non-qualified retirement plans and management transition planning for closely-held businesses. As part of our Individual Services, we provide Personal Financial Planning and Estate Planning and Administration. We also maintain a Litigation Support Practice, including the areas of insurance claims analysis, stockholder, matrimonial and commercial litigation, attorney ethics complaints involving client trust funds and financial crimes. We have experience in both plaintiff and defense work and have been called upon to act as testifying experts on those occasions when disputes cannot otherwise be resolved.

Cohen DuFour LLP has a wealth of resources available to satisfy the diverse business requirements of established and developing enterprises as well as individuals. While many clients will have similar needs, it is our policy to identify the unique circumstances inherent in every situation and develop a focused plan consistent with our desire to provide the highest quality of services in the most cost-effective manner. To that end, we maintain state-of-the-art technical and resource capabilities and a quality control consciousness unusual in a CPA firm of our size. Our best recommendations, however, come from our clients, who tell us that we are invariably their advisors of first choice when confronted with virtually any personal or business financial issue.
