Stronger Together - Doeren Mayhew

We’re excited to announce that Beene Garter has merged into Doeren Mayhew, effective Jan. 1, 2022.

Why Beene Garter?

Beene Garter is the most well-known, respected and largest independently owned CPA firm in West Michigan.

Partnering with Beene Garter expands our Michigan footprint with an office in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids. It also allows us to continue delivering value-added services and unparalleled expertise to clients as they grow.

We chose them because they share our Michigan-based roots and client-first philosophies. And, we’ve known their firm for many years through the Moore Global Limited Network – collaborating on several projects in the past. Over the years, we’ve built a great respect for their firm, leadership, employees and their values.

Together, we have a deeper bench strength to bolster existing service line offerings and industry expertise, while broadening technical and industry capabilities beyond our current reach.
