Los Angeles-based firm GHJ has merged with accounting firm GGF to expand its expertise and service range. The merger will enable GHJ to enhance its client value delivery, especially in sectors such as entertainment, manufacturing and distribution, nonprofit, private equity, and real estate.

GHJ, a firm based in Los Angeles with FY23 net revenue of $59.2 million, has announced its merger with GGF, a Los Angeles-based accounting firm. This strategic combination will enable GHJ to strengthen its ability to deliver expanded expertise, innovative solutions, and a broader range of services, ultimately supporting the success of their clients.

Strategic Fit and Expanded Capabilities:

“We are proud to integrate GGF into the GHJ family to strengthen our ability to deliver exceptional value to our clients,” said Tom Barry, Managing Partner of GHJ. “GGF’s strong client relationships and tailored approach make them a perfect strategic fit for our firm. This partnership will allow us to expand our capabilities and better serve businesses in Los Angeles and beyond by continuing our mission to help clients thrive.”

Founded in 1993, GGF specializes in audit, tax, and consulting services for entrepreneurial businesses and individuals. The firm has deep expertise in industries such as entertainment, manufacturing and distribution, nonprofit, private equity, and real estate, all of which align closely with GHJ’s focus areas.

A Natural Fit for Both Firms:

“I founded GGF as a forward-thinking, nimble firm dedicated to helping clients realize their financial goals, and joining GHJ felt like a natural fit,” said Scott Gilderman, Founder of GGF. “GHJ shares our commitment to personalized service and provides the additional expertise and resources that will help our clients grow and succeed in an increasingly complex financial environment.”

Leadership and Team Integration:

As part of the merger, GGF’s employees will join the GHJ team, with Gilderman assuming the role of Senior Consultant in GHJ’s Audit and Assurance Practice. In addition, Jack Garabedian will join as a Tax Partner, and Sharon Flummerfelt will serve as Managing Director in Client Accounting and Advisory Services. This integration ensures a seamless transition for GGF’s clients while enhancing the firm’s expertise across a variety of service areas.

“I am excited to continue working with GGF’s clients and offer them access to an even broader range of tax services,” said Jack Garabedian. “By becoming part of GHJ, our clients will benefit from additional expertise in areas such as international tax, state and local tax, and specialized tax expertise for transactions, while also tapping into resources tailored to businesses, nonprofits, and high-net-worth individuals.”

Continued Growth and Client Success:

This merger marks a new chapter for both GGF and GHJ, as the combined firms are now better equipped to serve clients across a range of industries with deeper expertise and expanded resources. With a continued focus on providing innovative, customized solutions, GHJ is poised to meet the evolving needs of its clients while continuing its growth trajectory.
