Two Salt Lake County accounting firms have announced that they have merged. Cooper Williams LLC, a full-service public accounting firm based in Salt Lake City, and Savas & Co. LLC of Murray have combined forces to become Cooper Savas LLC. While Cooper Williams offers a wide variety of accounting services to clients nationwide, Savas specializes in small business, partnership, trust, estate and individual taxation.
“The addition of the Savas team helps us better serve our rapidly growing tax practice,” said Phil Cooper, managing partner of Cooper Savas. “We have had a positive inter-firm working relationship with their team for the past 12 months and we are now excited to combine our collective professional resources for new and existing clients, making one truly great firm.”
“We are proud of our 30-year history and our philosophy of helping our clients succeed,” said Jim Savas. “We are excited to take the next step and join with an outstanding full-service firm. Joining with our new audit partners, John Hunter and Rex Williams, will enable us to offer the highest-quality accounting, audit and business advisory services to our clients. Additionally, we are especially pleased to be teamed with whom I believe are the premier income tax provision specialists in the region.”
Cooper Savas LLC now has a team of 31 professionals, including 20 Pertified Public Accountants.
