Principal, Doeren Mayhew Assurance
Principal, Doeren Mayhew Advisors, LLC

John brings more than 35 years of public accounting experience to his role as the Practice Leader of Doeren Mayhew’s Financial Institutions Group and as a trusted leader in the credit union industry.

Starting his career as an auditor in the industry, John quickly realized his passion for helping credit unions achieve their financial goals. This motivated him to eventually go on to open his own successful firm Orth, Chakler, Murnane & Company, that later merged with Doeren Mayhew in 2015.

Today, John spends his time supervising audit and advisory engagements for credit unions and credit union service organizations across the nation. He has carefully overseen the execution of thousands of certified audits for both federal- and state-chartered credit unions, as well as corporate credit unions. In addition, John helps guide clients through the implementation of new accounting standards, mergers, asset/liability management, implementation of derivatives and other highly technical projects to position them for success.

A respected industry figure, John is also frequently called upon to speak and author on a wide range of industry topics.

John’s extensive technical acumen combined with his passion for the industry is reflected in the work he performs for clients helping them seize opportunities, identify risks and position them for long-term success. These same skills helped him be instrumental in the growth of the firm’s Financial Institutions Group.
