New York-based accounting firm CohnReznick has hired Leif Novie, a renowned CPA and attorney, as partner in its private client services branch. Novie's experience in handling intricate tax matters for affluent clients is expected to bolster CohnReznick's tax and wealth planning strategies, particularly in the emerging hub for businesses and wealthy families, South Florida.

CohnReznick, the New York-based IPA 100 powerhouse with FY25 revenue of $1.15 billion, has welcomed Leif Novie as a partner in its growing private client services practice. Novie, a dual-credentialed CPA and attorney with more than 35 years of experience, will be based in South Florida—one of the firm’s fastest-growing wealth markets. 

Novie brings deep technical expertise across trusts and estates, charitable planning, and complex tax matters for high-net-worth individuals. His advisory work spans domestic and international tax planning, real estate structuring, hedge fund strategies, and investment partnerships. Known for his collaborative approach and technical precision, Novie has also served as a frequent presenter on high-level tax issues. 

“With South Florida rapidly emerging as a hub for businesses and wealthy families, we’re building a team that meets their needs with proactive, sophisticated solutions,” said Daniel Kesner, head of private client services. “Leif significantly boosts our capabilities, particularly in the trust and estate space.” 

Novie’s addition reinforces CohnReznick’s national focus on delivering tailored tax and wealth planning strategies in key growth regions, with South Florida now a prime market for high-net-worth advisory services.
