J.H. Cohn Combines Services With Charles Brucia & Co.
9/01/2009
J.H. Cohn LLP, one of the top 15 accounting and consulting firms in the United States, has combined practices with Charles Brucia & Co., a Manhattan-based public accounting firm that offers business management services to the television, motion picture, and music production industries.
Charles Brucia & Co., which will operate as Charles Brucia & Co., A Division of J.H. Cohn, was founded in 1976 by Charles J. Brucia, who has joined J.H. Cohn as the division’s managing director and as a partner in the Firm. Mr. Brucia is well known throughout the television industry for his ability to create and preserve wealth for the firm’s corporate and high net worth individual clients. He began his career at Arthur Young & Company and Oppenheim, Appel, Dixon & Co. and has extensive knowledge and experience in the accounting-, audit-, and tax-related issues impacting the television, motion picture, and music production industries, including financing, licensing, and distribution.
"By combining with Charles Brucia & Company, we reiterate our commitment to further establishing ourselves in the New York and Los Angeles markets and in the area of client business management, the stage for which was set when we combined with Frederic Kantor & Company in 2008," said Robert DeMeola, office managing partner of J.H. Cohn's New York office.
Under terms of the business combination, the firm’s staff—which in addition to Mr. Brucia includes four professionals—relocated from its Madison Avenue location to J.H. Cohn’s New York headquarters, located at 1212 Avenue of the Americas.
"J.H. Cohn‘s bench strength in both New York and Los Angeles affords us the opportunity to increase the breadth of services to clients on both coasts, and enables us to concentrate on increasing capacity while maintaining our focus on our valued clients," said Charles Brucia. "For more than 30 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to helping our clients improve their business through our core belief in providing quality, reliable, consistent, and personalized service, and are pleased to have associated ourselves with a firm that operates the same way."
