Same Firm, New Name & Partner
After 33 years, and as one of the largest and most highly respected accounting firms in the Merrimack Valley, we have a new name and a new mission.
George J. Toscano, Sr. started his practice in 1954.
I began my accounting practice in 1969. My uncle George, Sr. and I merged our practices into Toscano & Ardito in 1979.
Shortly thereafter his son George, Jr. and Roberta McCollum joined the firm and have been instrumental in helping to secure our growth and the reputation of our firm.
Throughout our history, "the customer first" philosophy has been the legacy George, Sr. left with us.
We will be forever grateful to him for his wisdom and for continuing to be our guiding light.
Roberta has been an equity partner with us for some 15 years, and as many of you know, she prefers to focus on you, not on herself.
George, Jr and I thought it was about time to recognize and celebrate her years of devotion, loyalty and contribution to our firm by formally adding Roberta's name to our brand.
While we have enjoyed 33 years of sharing our passion in business and serving the needs of our customers, we now have a new mission.
we look to the future with renewed energy as we celebrate our new name and continue our journey together as a company. We see this as a unique opportunity to grow and we will continue to build on our good reputation which stands for all the good things we want our clients, staff and community friends to think of when they see our new logo and hear the name Ardito, Toscano & McCollum.
Thank you for your continued confidence in us and we look forward to working with you in the future.
With deep sentiment we remain committed to serving your financial interests and successes.
Sincerely yours
Lawrence J. Ardito, CPA, ABV, President

Regardless of the company structure, our clients are finding that by planning now for the continuation of their business, they are positioning for minimizing estate taxes, continued success and future growth.
Why Succession Planning is so Important
The "handing over" or "succession" of a company should be viewed as a process, and the "succession plan" will serve as a road map for partners or heirs to continue in the event of the majority owners' death, disability or retirement. A business succession plan should be carefully strategized and well executed in order to be successful, particularly with family-run or closely-held companies. The plan should cover the following key issues: Who will run the business, How family members will be involved, How successors will be trained, How and when control will be transferred, How assets will be distributed.
For most entrepreneurs, planning for the continuity of their business enterprise is the ultimate management challenge
According to a recent survey of CPA's conducted by the Management Consulting Services Division of the AICPA
over 58% of those surveyed nationwide responded that Succession Planning is the major concern of American Businesses today. Inadequate Succession planning was ranked as the biggest threat facing closely-held businesses.
For larger closely-held businesses with sales of $3 million or more
additional threats identified were: Environmental regulations, Inadequate succession planning, Inability to respond quickly to market changes, Succession planning is a lifelong process...it enhances the value of the business.
