Current company

Jackson Thornton

Accounting · 165 employees · Founded 1919 · Montgomery, Alabama, United States

Jackson Thornton, an accounting and consulting firm of more than 200 accountants and business consultants, applies more than a century of experience to serve over 8,000 clients across a wide variety of industries. From six offices in Alabama, we provide the resources and high quality services that have forged decades-long relationships with clients across the Southeast. From a "macro" view of strategic planning to a "micro" view of tax returns and audits, we look at your business's big picture, ready to help assess your financial goals and develop plans to reach them. Jackson Thornton can determine the cost effectiveness of your business's daily operations while developing a long-term strategy that both conserves resources and maximizes profits. Another difference we offer: As with a smaller firm, you have the full attention and individual focus of those experts in the services you require. But, as with a larger corporate firm, you have the broader depth of experience of our coalition of industry consultants, specialists and accountants - in case you need more than one expert to get a job done. Their jobs may vary, but the established performance standards of Jackson Thornton's work remain the same - day in, day out.
