During this time, we have been a staple of the area's business community and pride ourselves on the level of esteem we have earned. Our firm provides a full range of services including auditing, review, tax, finance, accounting, and consultancy, and our professional and administrative staff is dedicated to professional client service. We offer specialized services in estate planning, fiduciary trust accounting and tax services.

The firm is a member of Private Companies Practice Section (PCPS) of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the California Society of Certified Public Accountants. Our membership in the PCPS section of the AICPA is voluntary and requires us to submit to a peer review of the firm's audit and accounting practice every three years.

Our mission is to help clients maintain financial viability in the present, while taking a proactive approach to achieve future goals. This requires open communication to reach an understanding of our clients' needs through research and sound analysis. CMAC is dedicated to meeting these goals with high standards of excellence and professionalism.

We believe this to be a direct derivative of our talent and responsiveness to our client base.
