Fort Smith, AR-based Landmark CPAs will be adding new offices in Jonesboro and Conway, AR, after it merges in Garland & Greenwood CPAs on Jan. 1, 2025.
Garland & Greenwood partners John Brock, Jake Froemsdorf, Rocky Goodman, and Greg Schichtl, along with 36 staff members, will join Landmark CPAs, expanding the accounting firm’s headcount to more than 200 professionals across eight locations in Arkansas and Arizona.
Landmark CPAs said the merger will enhance its capabilities, expand its geographical reach, and provide new opportunities for staff and clients. There will be no disruption in service to clients, the firm added.
“We are excited to welcome the Garland & Greenwood team into the Landmark CPAs family,” Landmark CPAs Managing Member Randy Milligan said in a statement. “This merger allows us to build on our shared commitment to delivering exceptional service and innovative solutions to our clients. Together, we are stronger, and we look forward to the many opportunities this merger will bring for both our staff and our clients.”
According to the website Arkansas Business, Garland & Greenwood was created in 2021 with the merger of five Arkansas accounting firms: FDV|CPA and Consulting Services PLLC of Bentonville: Gasaway & Company CPAs of Little Rock; Mcllroy.Keen.Goodman LLP of Little Rock; Prince & Tuohey CPA of Hot Springs; and Robert G Schichtl II CPA of Conway.
The name of the new firm was derived from the locations where the group had their initial meetings to discuss the merger: Garland County and Greenwood, MS.
The firm expanded in 2022 with the creation of Garland & Greenwood Wealth Advisors, a registered investment advisor firm dedicated to financial planning and wealth management, Arkansas Business reported.
Garland & Greenwood provides an expanded range of financial and advisory services to individuals, businesses, and not-for-profit organizations.
“Joining forces with Landmark CPAs is a tremendous opportunity for our firm,” Goodman said. “We have long admired Landmark’s dedication to excellence and client service, and we are thrilled to become part of a team that shares our values. This merger enables us to provide even greater resources and expertise to our clients.”
Founded in 2018 after the merger of two accounting firms—Thomas and Thomas and Beall Barclay—Landmark CPAs provides accounting, tax, audit, and advisory assistance to its clients, which include high-net-worth individuals, business owners, and government and not-for-profit entities.
