A History And Future Of Client Service

Lipsky, Goodkin & Co. was founded in 1918 as Michael Schimmel & Co. with a firm commitment to provide professional service to each of our clients. As a full service public accounting firm, we provide auditing, tax and management consulting to many industries and professions.


Lipsky, Goodkin & Co. is an established firm with a deep history in this area. Our firm has grown along with the states that represent our main service area, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut, although we service clients throughout the United States and Canada. We have served generations of people in this area since the days when "a man's word was his bond" and people knew their clients personally.


We are a medium size firm, large enough to handle all your needs, small enough to care about you and your needs.


At Lipsky, Goodkin & Co., we still pride ourselves on getting to know our clients. We meet with you and discuss your needs and your financial goals. The plans we develop will be based on those needs and goals.


We have seen many changes throughout the years—and (we're proud to admit) we've anticipated many of the market changes and led the way in bringing some changes to the accounting profession.


We are renowned for our ability to creatively solve problems and provide solutions for our clients. Our associates work with you and keep you involved and informed at every phase of the decision-making process. Indeed, all recommendations are made with your needs in mind. For it is the realization of your financial goals that determines our success.
