Accounting

Mowat Mackie & Anderson LLP - CPAsmowat.com

"Shargel & Co. is our first experience using an insurance broker. After working with Susan and her staff, it became evident that we had been missing out on a valuable service. Susan and her staff have been very attentive to us and our insurance needs. They keep us informed and help guide us to make the most cost-effective decisions regarding insurance for our employees. Susan and her staff helped us successfully implement a Health Savings Account option, which has translated into great savings for our Firm and employees. The best part about working with Susan and her staff is their knowledge and availability to address our questions and concerns."
