With additional expertise in Higher Education, Hospitality, and other industry sectors, the combination brings new diversification to CohnReznick’s Boston practice as well.
CohnReznick, which has had a presence in Boston since 2008, has 38 employees and six partners in its Boston office. Its Firm-wide resources include dedicated industry practices, specialized assurance, tax, and advisory services, and global reach through Nexia International. The Firm is also an award-winning workplace for its women’s program, flexibility, dedicated Learning and Development department, and community service initiatives.
“This is an exciting move for our firm. Our clients will benefit from the formidable resources that CohnReznick’s national Affordable Housing Industry Practice brings and our employees’ will benefit from considerable new professional development opportunities,” said Michael Tucci, Managing Partner, Ercolini & Company. “In addition, we were very drawn to CohnReznick’s commitment to excellence and partner-level involvement in client service, two core values that we share.”
