OUR MISSION

Baumgartner & Company is a well-established Chartered Professional Accountant firm with roots in the Edmonton community. 

​Whether you face a personal or business challenge, we are here to help. Our staff are qualified professionals in the fields of accounting, business, and information technology.   We take pride by staying up-to-date with technology and the regulatory curves that complicate life.

Whatever your challenge, we guarantee to give a professional and knowledgeable perspective. It’s this insight, coupled with  long-term solutions, that helps to exceed your goals and expectations.

Like you, we can not know everything about everything.  For this reason, we maintain a network of experienced professionals in a variety of fields.  Unlike many other firms, we recognize our limitations and if we believe that you will benefit from outside assistance, we will refer you to a qualified skilled expert in the necessary field.

To provide continued professional expertise to clients, Baumgartner & Company has formed an association with Andy Ellis Professional Corporation.  Andy has an exceptional knowledge base with many years of public practice experience.  Andy and his staff can be reached either through our office or contacts provided on his website.

We also welcome James Liska Professional Corporation, along with their staff and clients, to our office.   By sharing knowledge, expertise, and resources, we are able to provide enhanced services to current and new clients.
