About
the
Corner
Office,
Ltd
the
Corner
Office,
Ltd
was
founded
in
early
2013
by
Catherine
Fox-‐Simpson,
CPA
to
bring
the
trusted
advisor
back
to
middle
market
companies.
After
nearly
20
years
in
public
accounting,
Catherine
recognized
the
value
of
technical
expertise
and
the
needs
of
businesses
to
freely
access
this
knowledge
in
a
post-‐Sarbanes
Oxley
world.
SOX
created
an
environment
where
material
weaknesses
and
significant
deficiencies
were
of
vital
concern.
Executive
teams
needed
access
to
resources,
what
we
call
“brilliance”
at
the
Corner
Office,
to
assist
them
as
they
navigate
the
challenges
of
a
changing
business
environment.
Unable
to
consult
with
its’
auditors,
business
leaders
were
left
searching
for
the
trusted
advisors
they
needed.
Companies
need
advisors
who
can:
• Openly
consult
and
remedy
situations.
• Understand
the
financial
accounting
and
operational
aspects
of
a
middle
market
business.
• Complement
and
interface
with
their
financial
statement
auditors.
Furthermore,
many
businesses
can
no
longer
afford
to
house
the
numerous
resources
that
they
need
to
leverage
on
its
routine
business.
Companies
need
a
trusted
advisor
that
they
can
rely
upon
to
navigate
technical
issues,
manage
projects,
and
consult
through
times
of
change.
It
is
this
need
and
service
gap
that
has
become
the
foundation
of
the
Corner
Office.
We
understand
business,
we
understand
the
complexities
that
face
businesses
through
periods
of
growth,
downturn,
and
ownership
transitions.
We
believe
in
the
power
of
building
a
trusted
relationship
and
being
a
true
advisor
to
our
clients.
We
believe
in
adding
value
to
our
clients.
