About
Focusing on client needs has been the guiding standard of Porte Brown LLC since Jim Porte founded the firm in Chicago in 1946. Armed with his old-fashioned key-driven comptometer, Porte would take his accounting services directly to his customers’ locations in order to acquire the in-depth company knowledge and ongoing communication he needed to meet their business needs. Even long after Porte Brown moved to Elk Grove Village in 1974 to centralize its growing staff and clientele base, the firm still stays true to Porte’s original premise of working directly with the customer.
Successful companies like Porte Brown LLC build on the foundations established by their creators. They know how to balance adjustment to changing times with perseverance to the principles that made them successful in the first place. Porte Brown is still going strong after 70 years by staying current with new knowledge and technologies in the profession of accounting, while still giving their clients personalized service.
