Atlanta, Nov. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altanta-based Global Strategic Accountants, LLC (GSA) team members joined national professional services firm CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen LLP) on November 1, 2020.
“Part of our three-year plan has been to team with another firm to continue to catapult the opportunities to grow, serve our clients, and create new opportunities for all of us,” said Matt LaHood, CEO, GSA. “We chose CLA from many suitors.

LaHood will establish and lead CLA’s telecommunications industry practice. “CLA’s industry-specific outsourcing practice is among the nation’s largest and most successful across the accounting industry,” said LaHood. “Together, we will create opportunities for our clients, our people, and our communities.”
