Top 10 accounting firm CliftonLarsonAllen (CLA) has acquired Long Island-based accounting and business consulting firm Richards, Witt & Charles (RWC). Financial terms of the transaction, which went into effect on Sept. 18, were not disclosed.

“RWC is well-known across the country for our experience and deep connection to the automobile dealership industry, and for our focus on serving restaurants of all sizes. We are deeply connected to our clients and understand their needs inside and out, just the way CLA is connected to its clients,” said Paul Charles, CPA, managing partner of RWC. “The synergies between our firms helps to make this transition easy for our clients and for our people. Together, we bring a together a broad array of talent and scope of service that will impact our clients’ businesses.”
