History

HISTORY

Since 1979 Wegmann Dazet has been a trusted partner of businesses and their owners who realize that our expertise can be one of their assets. The Firm’s history, however, goes back over 80 years.

John X. Wegmann, Jr. started a public accounting practice in 1938, creating a local New Orleans area firm dedicated to the growth and success of its clients. Subsequent partner additions, mergers with other firms, and national alliances all paved the way to the establishment of Wegmann Dazet over forty years ago.

In 2005 we became an independent member of the BDO USA Alliance; this international alliance gives us access to a wealth of resources nationally for our clients, to allow our further proactive client relationships.

Today we are one of the largest locally-owned CPA firms. Wegmann Dazet has ten partners and about 80 total professionals. We manage and assist with the tax, financial, and accounting needs for clients in several industries:  Energy Sector & Services,  Marine & Land Transportation ServicesGaming and HospitalityTechnology CompaniesReal Estate / Development / ConstructionManufacturing & DistributionNon-ProfitsRestaurants & Retail,  Medical/DentalPetroleum Wholesale / C-Stores, and Professional Services: Architects, Engineers, and Attorneys, among others.

Having served our clients from various offices in the New Orleans region, including a stint in the French Quarter in the 1980’s, we now have offices in Metairie and Covington. Solid growth, high operating standards, training, and commitment to service allow us to push and to grow into the future. Our “push” includes being proactive with our clients; we assist them in making complex and sometimes difficult business decisions. Our focus is our clients’ growth.

Wegmann Dazet provides audit, accounting, tax, and business consulting services. The legacy of our founders will continue  – one of total client service.
