History

The Client Service Mission:   
Becher, Della Torre, Gitto & Company, CPAs was founded in 1982 on three pillars of client services that stand today:    
   
I - Accounting is the language of business, the basis for sound decisions. The service mission is to assist clients with management information to drive profits, promote financial reporting clarity, and form a foundation of sound internal controls. 

II - Tax planning is essential to preserving company assets and individual wealth. The service mission is to regularly diagnose each client's tax picture for the purpose of optimizing tax savings.   

III - Public trust in financial reporting promotes reliable financial commerce. The service mission is to ensure that all audit and attestation services are performed at the highest level of quality, detect any material errors, and provide the required financial information that the reader can trust.       

The BDG culture is based on elite professional competency and a working environment - hours - that promotes a healthy lifestyle for all firm members. The service mission is to consistently match professional talent to client service needs and to exceed their expectations.
