Michael Coglianese CPA, P.C., is a mid-sized firm offering a unique combination of the highly personalized service of a smaller, specialized firm, and the deep expertise of a large, well-recognized organization. We are staffed by former Big 4 accountants and skilled regulatory professionals to handle your business. Since we are nimbler than many firms with our level of expertise, you will get effective service, and timely turnaround. Let us be your partner and you can rest assured that your audit, tax, and compliance work will be done right, and done on time.
