About Braver >

A letter from Patrick Riley

President & CEO

Dear Friend,

Founded in 1949, Braver has grown from a few dedicated accountants into a full-service financial services firm, employing 200 professionals. Today, Braver professionals provide an extensive array of services from accounting, wealth management, business strategies, technology solutions and valuation services. Braver also prides itself on offering the most important service of all – excellent customer service.

Braver’s accounting, auditing and tax services group is the 7th largest CPA firm in Massachusetts.  We are proud to have recently expanded our reach into Rhode Island as well.  Our professionals have expertise in the fields of real estate, entrepreneurial and emerging growth, not-for-profit, and international. Our real estate clients are among the dominant players in the industry, including SR Weiner & Associates, Intercontinental Real Estate, and Perini Construction.

Several years ago, Braver added a very successful wealth management practice to our service offerings. The professionals in our practice, nearly 60 years experience, now manage more than $400 million. Our financial planners work on a fee-only basis to ensure that our clients receive an objective, results-oriented approach to their financial needs. Wealth management at Braver sells no products and receives no commissions or referral fees.

Our clients find the services of the Braver Business Strategies of great value. Our team of former owner-operators and CEO's work with small- and medium-sized businesses throughout New England to organize their corporate structure effectively, improve financial performance, and develop a system for sustainable growth. In addition to assistance with your strategy, our team of professionals stays with your company during the implementation of its recommendations to keep your organization motivated and to help you navigate any complications along the road to success.

Our group of qualified technology professionals helps nearly 300 clients keep pace, at an affordable cost, with rapidly changing technology advancements. From auditing your current computer network to recommending strategies and equipment to keep you functioning smoothly and ahead of your competition, we are available at a moments notice.

Last but not least, we have recently added a valuation services practice to our portfolio of service offerings. Financial valuation has become the touchstone for an enormous range of business, wealth management, and litigation transactions and initiatives. We believe our firm should be at the forefront of critical fields like this and look forward to providing valuation services with the acclaimed Braver "way we do business."

We look forward to hearing from you.

Warmest regards,

Patrick B. Riley, CPA, CFE
President & CEO
