Recognized in the Handelsblatt ranking for tax consultants and auditors

Once again, Linn Goppold is listed among the best tax consultants and best auditors in the Handelsblatt ranking 2024. 

The analysis was conducted by the Hamburg-based institute SWI Finance on behalf of Handelsblatt. Out of a total of 4,126 participating tax advisors and 831 auditors, only 601 tax advisors and 115 auditors were able to qualify for the list.

This double recognition is a testament to the consistently high quality of work and the commitment of the firm's employees.

Certification of our outsourcing services as per ISAE 3402 Type 2 and IDW PS 951 new version Typ 2

As one of very few auditing and accounting firms in Germany, we have also had certification as per ISAE 3402 Type 2 and IDW PS 951 new version Type 2 since 2016 certified – for our services in the area of financial accounting, including IT sourcing for clients, payroll accounting, creating annual reports and creating tax returns. We also successfully completed the subsequent audit in January 2021. The audit showed that our firm has a suitable quality management system, and that this is also implemented in our practices.

We offer you not only high-quality individual services – as confirmed by our certification – but we also can take on entire business areas for you. For companies subject to audit, outsourcing provides a significant benefit: The prescribed audit must be conducted by an external auditor who assesses the outsourced areas as well as their internal control systems. This no longer takes place in your company; rather, it is done at our premises. We offer high quality standards that are assumed when processing outsourcing contracts, which is fully ensured through our certifications.

Digital Law Firm

The aim of our work is to create added value for our clients and to minimize unnecessary and superfluous administrative activities. For this reason, we continuously digitize and automate our business processes and accompany our clients in their ongoing development in this regard. As a result of our efforts, we were one of very few law firms to be awarded the DATEV label "Digitale Kanzlei 2022" ("Digital Law Firm 2022").

Peer review

Professional tools for quality assurance are also present in firms in which traditional trust plays a central role, and is of great significance. We were one of the first auditing firms in 2002 to voluntarily agree to (and pass) an external quality control, a peer review, under the new professional laws for auditors. Since 2005, peer review is now required by law; regular quality controls are performed by external experts. Since then, auditors without peer review may no longer provide their seal when granting legally required audits. We completed the last peer review in 2017; no objections were lodged.
