Ostrow Reisin Berk & Abrams

History
Ostrow Reisin Berk & Abrams, Ltd. (ORBA) was founded in 1977 by a group of experienced accountants with an average of twenty years experience serving middle-market companies and their owners. This group applied its understanding of the issues facing independent business owners to establish a firm of their own. Today, we continue to use our entrepreneurial expertise to serve our entire client base.

Most of ORBA's clients were referred by existing clients, attorneys, and other professional contacts. The firm maintains extremely high-quality standards and has established a reputation as being very resourceful when it comes to helping clients make and save money. In fact, Crain's Chicago Business has repeatedly recognized us as one of the Top 25 Largest CPA firms in the Chicago area.
