The accounting and business advisory firm Friedman LLP has opened a new location in Los Angeles and relocated its New Jersey office. The firm has locations throughout the U.S., as well as in Beijing and Shanghai, China.
New Jersey
“Relocating our New York City headquarters to One Liberty Plaza earlier this year taught us so many valuable lessons,” said Harriet Greenberg, co-managing partner of Friedman LLP. “We see that a well-designed workplace guides effective workflow and employee engagement. We took winning elements from our New York headquarters and included them in the new Marlton office—fresh designs, open floor plans and ergonomics-driven work stations.”
The 70 employees in Friedman’s current Marlton office will relocate to 601 Route 73 North in the weeks leading up to their current lease expiration. The new 21,000 sq. ft. office is spread over 1.5 floors and will feature a state-of-the-art training room, cold brew tap, workstations with dual sitting and standing functionality, multiple collaboration spaces and more. Carl Bagell, the firm’s managing partner for Southern New Jersey, will continue to oversee the Marlton, N.J. location.
“For the past 10 years I have had the pleasure of serving as the managing partner of the firm’s southern New Jersey region,” said Friedman’s Carl Bagell. “This is truly a special group of people with a lot of heart who are dedicated to uplifting one another and delivering excellent client service. I look forward to the opening of a space that is tailor-made for our employees and designed to give visitors a taste of what life is like in our award-winning firm.”
“This year has definitely been an exciting time of growth and expansion for Friedman. The Marlton office demonstrates Friedman’s ongoing growth efforts, continued commitment to employee work-life balance and its welcoming professional environment,” said Fred Berk, co-managing partner of Friedman LLP.
Los Angeles
Friedman will also open a new physical office in Los Angeles, CA. Adnan Islam, partner and co-practice leader of the firm’s International Tax group, will oversee the office.
“The breadth and depth of our firm’s service offerings are recognized across the country and the globe,” said Islam. “I’m proud to say that our client work on the west coast has been overwhelmingly positive. As such, creating a formal office location in Los Angeles has allowed us to enhance the hands-on attention we delivered to our clients.”
“The physical office in LA demonstrates Friedman’s growth mindset,” said Fred Berk, co-managing partner. “We didn’t make it to nearly 100 years without taking calculated risks and rethinking what we’ve always done, because agility and innovation are key.”
“These are truly exciting times here at Friedman,” said Harriet Greenberg, co-managing partner. “This new office reinforces the extensive work we’re doing on the west coast and further reflects our dedication to adapting our approach to honor our ongoing commitment to deliver excellent client service.”
