Our bottom line: To serve and protect
Our primary goal is to protect you from costly and time-consuming government audits. We make sure you are in complete compliance with all regulations, yet we are strategically creative in approach. We keep our fees reasonable because we know our financial success depends on yours.
Our Firm Credo: We’re all in this together
It took years to assemble an office staff that collaborates at the level of efficiency where we operate today. Every member of our team does what he or she does best, and we compliment each other’s skills. It is our exceptional teamwork that enables us to give you the best possible service at reasonable cost.
Robert H. Lewin
Firm President Robert Lewin has created a successful accounting practice based on referrals because he cares so much about protecting his clients. His goal is to make their lives easier, and his motto is simply: I’ll handle it. Whether it’s with his own office staff, or with you and your associates, he always motivates the people around him to work together toward a common goal.
Robert believes that collaboration works best with knowledge. He always makes certain that his clients understand the tax and accounting process, and is more than willing to comb through client financial statements to explain where their money is going, and where it might be used to better advantage.
Previous to founding Robert H. Lewin, Ltd., Robert was a partner at H. Leftwich & Associates Ltd, where he worked with healthcare clientele. Earlier, he also has served as an outsourced controller for an international publicly held company in Chicago, and began his career as a Staff Accountant and Auditor for Harris, Kerr & Foster, a CPA firm specializing in the hospitality and retail industries.
