History
We are a downtown Seattle firm of professionals who have dismissed preconceived notions about public accounting. In dispelling these stereotypes we have been able to grow, thrive and evolve into professionals that disrupts definitions, challenges conventions and is ready to be your most valued advisor. We call this professional The New Accountant.
Our partners and staff are not simply accountants, but trusted advisors who take the time to listen and understand the real needs of our clients.
We look at each client’s business from the standpoint of the business – not simply the books.
We look at each individual from the standpoint of the individual – not just a tax return.
At Clothier & Head, we are not just about the right numbers. We are about meaningful results.
How We Got Here
The events in our past and present have led us to create an environment where professionals see things differently. It is one thing to be someone’s accountant. But, it is completely different to take a greater interest that yields a greater insight.
Our history defines this story.
