Nisivoccia Celebrates 50+ Years Of Service

Nisivoccia Certified Public Accounting Firm Celebrates 50 Year Anniversary

Nisivoccia, a top 25 certified public accounting and wealth management firm in New Jersey, will have good reason to remember with fondness the end of this unprecedented and challenging year, as the Mount Arlington-based firm officially celebrates 50 years in business in November.

The icing on their birthday cake is that the firm continues to enjoy targeted, sustainable growth despite nationwide COVID-19 losses, due in part to the strong foundations they had in place before the pandemic. Such as, their proactive hands-on approach and open lines of communication with clients as well as their focus on family values and developing personal relationships.

Bud Jones, who took the reins as managing partner this year, said Nisivoccia has been able to continue its exceptional service, helping clients become more efficient and profitable, simply by emulating the strength, conviction, and philosophies of its founder, Raymond Nisivoccia.
