Testimonials
The folks at Withum are thorough, smart, helpful, and fair. I am in my third consecutive company working with Withum, and given the choice, I would choose them for a fourth time.
Withum and Teachable have been working together for a relatively short time, but a solid relationship has been built to prepare Teachable for getting to that next level of growth whether it be a new funding round or even an IPO. Their audit and tax professionals always make themselves available for any question that comes up with solid research to support the answer.
I’ve been very impressed with the quality of services offered by Withum at all experience levels and practice areas of the firm. They understand our company, its stakeholders and the high growth technology space as a whole; their team is great to work with, they have given us excellent service and have had a positive impact on our business.
