The Firm is a member of the Private Practice Section of the AICPA Division of CPA firms. The division is a voluntary self-regulatory organization of firms established to foster quality performance. Membership in the division is limited and requires, among other things, that firms adhere to the AICPA quality control standards, submit to a peer review every three years, and provide 40 hours of continuing professional education yearly for each professional staff member. Staff members are recruited from the top graduates of area universities. Training is continued through in-firm programs and planned coordinated participation in courses sponsored by the Society of Louisiana Certified Public Accountants (LCPA) and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). This history of growth through promotion, purchase and mergers, the Firm can be traced back over 50 years. Formed by John X. Wegmann, Jr. in 1938, the foundation of a local firm dedicated to the growth and success of staff and clients was solidly established. The office has become a leading locally owned CPA firm in the Gulf South area providing audit, accounting, tax and other consulting services to its clients. The experience of Wegmann Dazet's partners and staff effectively meets the organizational demands of training and quality control while retaining the identity and personal relationships important to the quality of life of the professional staff. The Firm is also an independent member of the BDO Seidman Alliance. BDO is a national professional services firm providing assurance, tax, financial advisory and consulting services to a wide range of publicly traded and privately held companies. This Alliance allows us to take advantage of the collective resources and expertise of other CPA firms throughout the United States.
