Miami, FL – January 21, 2025 – Hancock Askew’s Miami office has announced an exciting transition. Effective February 1, 2025, the team will begin operating independently under the new firm name: Veridian. The firm will continue to offer tax, audit, accounting and advisory services. 

This milestone marks the launch of a locally driven firm founded by the Miami office Partners: Craig Armstrong, Patricia Siles, Alfredo Reynoso, Lisette Rodriguez and Mark Fenaughty. This decision reaffirms their commitment to delivering the personalized, high-quality services that clients value most.

Under the Veridian name, the Miami office will remain fully intact, with no changes to its leadership, staff, or location in the Dadeland–Miami area. 

Clients and advisors will continue to work with the same trusted professionals they’ve relied on for years. This transition underscores Veridian’s focus on providing tailored, community-rooted services to meet the unique needs of local clients as well as the firm’s international relationships.

We’re excited to carry forward the relationships and expertise our clients count on, while embracing new opportunities to enhance their success.”
