Basic Information

Mermel-Goldman CPAs is an independent accounting firm on North Sheffield Avenue in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood, where Greg Mermel established his practice in 1980 after several years with a national CPA firm. He works alongside CPAs Josh Goldman and Zoe Conrady. The firm prepares individual and business tax returns, provides year-round tax planning, represents clients before the IRS, and offers bookkeeping and write-up services along with financial statement audits, reviews and compilations. Hands-on small business owners get practical guidance on tax and business decisions. Performing arts organizations and individual artists are a particular focus, drawing on Greg’s years as a theatrical producer and manager, and the firm has long served Chicago’s gay and lesbian community on issues such as property ownership, inheritance and family matters. Its individual clients live in more than two dozen states.
