About CRI: More Than Accountants, Business Advisors

It's no secret that CRI's CPA team is more than accountants and truly business advisors. And with the typical longevity of our trusted advisor roles, CRI's team often becomes an integral part of your business. CRI clients also benefit from a proactive business advisory team continually focused on quality, innovation and execution for accounting, auditing, consulting, and tax services. Our accounting firm is among the nation's most technologically advanced, and CRI provides our professional staff with continuous technical training in auditing and accounting, tax, forensic accounting, and business consulting lines. This dedication to technology translates into CRI's clients partnering with the most current and informed accounting professionals across the South in locations throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas.

CRI has recently received an Inside Public Accounting Honor as a Top 50 Accounting Firm. Southern regional firm CRI has been ranked as the 32nd largest accounting firm in the nation.

CRI: NATIONAL STRENGTH

CRI's strength is from within. More than 700 accounting professionals, their expertise, and knowledge of industry trends and standards are backing the local staff members throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Texas that are servicing you and your accounting needs. Our national strength is derived from our technical expertise that solidifies our standing as the South's premier accounting and auditing firm. Performing quality accounting, auditing, consulting, and tax services has always been - and continues to be - the number one objective of our CPA firm - CRI.
