Back in the 1930s, when agriculture was still the main industry in Freehold, New Jersey, and farms dotted the rural landscape, Mr. Leon Riemer opened a small accounting firm to service the farmers and small business owners in the area. In those days, the cost of service might be some eggs or perhaps a home-made cake, and the bartering of services for food was common.
In the 1970s, Mr. Joseph Drucker partnered with Mr. Riemer to continue servicing an expanding client base. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Gershon Biegeleisen began working for the firm. Eventually Mr. Riemer retired and Mr. Biegeleisen joined as a partner.
In the 1990s Mr. Drucker retired as well and Mr. Biegeleisen changed the name of the firm to Gershon Biegeleisen & Co. Over the next twenty years, under the leadership of Gershon Biegeleisen, the firm grew and flourished, eventually branching out to an additional location in Lakewood, NJ.
And today, over seventy years since the inception of our firm, and after the passing of Mr. Leon Riemer, Gershon Biegeleisen & Co. continues to provide those same services as in years gone by and in the true tradition of the firm, all the while upholding its original vision of quality service provided with a smile.
Our firm undergoes rigorous peer review as administered by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. This is a program dedicated to ensuring that certified public accounting firms have quality control systems in place over their accounting and auditing practices.
The firm also has its own continuing education courses to ensure our staff maintains the high level of quality that our clients have come to expect in all areas of our audit and accounting practice.
