What Elmore does

Elmore CPAs LLC is a Georgia-based boutique professional services firm specializing in forensic accounting and litigation support. Founded in 2013 by Stephen A. Elmore, Sr., the firm delivers financial expert witness testimony and consulting in both civil and criminal proceedings, with the Managing Principal court-qualified in U.S. District Courts (Georgia, Alabama) and state courts across five states (Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ohio). Service offerings are organized across six practice areas: Employment, Family Law, Business Litigation, Personal Injury, Fraud Investigation, and Government matters, all centered on complex financial quantification, reconciliation, and analysis.

The firm's client base consists primarily of law firms — including Am Law 100 firms such as Jones Day, King & Spalding, and McGuire Woods, alongside regional firms across the Southeast — plus government engagements with entities such as the U.S. Attorney's Office and the Alabama Securities Commission. The practice operates on engagement-based pricing with no publicly disclosed rate card and no recurring subscription or platform component; there is no proprietary technology product, software, or data asset underlying the offering. Marketing is limited to the firm website (elmorecpas.com) and professional/reputation-driven referrals.

Business model is essentially a sole-practitioner expert witness consultancy. The Managing Principal carries all the credentialed capacity (CPA in two states, CBA, CFF, CGMA, 40 years of experience), and the firm competes on courtroom credibility, multi-jurisdictional admissibility, and relationship-based access to legal counsel rather than on technology, scale, or pricing leverage. There are no external investors, no funding rounds, and no disclosed employees beyond the principal, which defines the firm as a lifestyle boutique practice rather than a scalable professional services platform.
