Rich Craig, managing partner at 415 Group, has been named one of the top 200 CPAs in the country by Forbes. He is one of only three CPAs from Ohio named to the list.

Nationally Ranked Certified Public Accountant

This was Forbes' inaugural list of the best CPAs. Created by the Forbes editorial staff, the list includes the top CPAs active in the U.S. in public practice, sourced through independent nominations and accolades from CPA societies and associations. Almost a year of research went into the making of this list.

“It is an honor to be included on Forbes’ list, but this is truly an award shared by all of my colleagues, who bring experience and energy to our firm every day,” says Craig. “Our goal is to provide clients with a partnership, giving them the best advice, support and services.”

With Craig making this national list, the 415 Group name appears alongside some of the biggest and most well-known accounting firms in the country. Craig will be attending the Top 200 CPAs celebration at Forbes on Fifth in New York City this August, where he will be networking with leading firms and CPAs from across the country.

Northeast Ohio Accounting and Business Consultation

415 Group is the area’s largest locally owned public accounting and IT firm. With two locations and more than 40 years of experience, 415 Group offers accounting, business consulting and IT services. This national ranking for Craig comes on the heels of 415 Group’s inclusion in another prestigious list, “America’s Most Recommended Tax Firms,” compiled by USA Today and Statista.

Craig credits his success, as well as the firm’s, to the talented team of accountants and IT professionals that comprise the 415 Group team.

“The firm has been growing and thriving thanks to our team,” says Craig. “We have a great culture here at 415 Group, which we call ‘The 415 Difference.’ That means we’ve reimagined the traditional accounting firm in a way that makes this an amazing place to work. We focus on work/life balance and delivering exceptional customer service. I’m proud to be a part of that.”
