Our commitment to quality is demonstrated by our membership in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Rhode Island Society of Certified Public Accountants, the New England Quality Review Program, and the Private Companies Practice Section of the AICPA Division for CPA Firms. As a division member, our quality controls are reviewed every three years for compliance with the highest professional standards. In accordance with these requirements, the firm has successfully undergone ten on-site quality reviews over the last twenty-eight years and the reviewers’ opinions were unmodified/pass for all reviews.
We are very proud of the results of our on-site peer reviews and the reviewers’ unmodified/pass opinions. This achievement allows Mardo, Lachapelle & Palumbo, LLP to perform financial audits as prescribed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Without this achievement, accounting firms are allowed to perform financial statement compilations and reviews but are not permitted to perform audits. Our last system review report was dated 2018.
Our firm enjoys an excellent reputation in the community and relies on existing clients, banking industry professionals and other professionals for referrals. Presently, we have accounts in diversified fields of industry including retail, wholesale, professional services, not for profit, automotive, construction, manufacturing and credit unions. We provide complete services in tax, audit, accounting, computer, and management advisory services. Our operation is fully computerized with the most recent technology. In addition, we provide considerable consulting services in specialized areas.

For individuals, such services as income tax return preparation, and estate, financial and tax planning are offered. The emphasis, however, is on maintaining close personal contacts with clients as a means of being continually aware of the clients’ needs. Frequent and regular meetings with our clients during the course of a year for planning purposes are stressed. Our goal is to have an open communication network that will leave our clients well-informed, comfortable and above all satisfied.
