What AGH, LLC does

AGH, LLC is an Atlanta-based accounting firm providing audit, tax, and consulting services. The supplied corporate record overlaps substantially with Carr, Riggs & Ingram (CRI), a top-25 nationally-ranked U.S. accounting and advisory firm headquartered regionally in the Southeast and founded in 1998. Across its CRI-linked platform, the firm operates more than 70 office locations spanning 14+ U.S. states (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas) plus a Juárez, Mexico office, and serves clients across more than 20 vertical industries including agribusiness, cannabis, captive insurance, commercial real estate, construction, financial institutions, government contracting, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing, nonprofits, oil and gas, physician groups, post-acute care, private foundations, and religious organizations.

The firm's core service lines are Audit & Attest (financial statement audits, reviews, compilations, SOC reports, PCAOB/SEC compliance, single audits, and peer review), Tax (business, individual, international, state and local, transfer pricing, R&D tax credits, trust, estate and gift, and qualified opportunity zone planning), and Advisory & Consulting (cybersecurity, IT risk, fraud and forensics, governance, internal audit, business planning, transaction advisory, valuations, and litigation support).

The business operates on a professional services billable-hour and engagement-fee model with customized pricing (no publicly disclosed fee schedules); recurring revenue is anchored by multi-year audit, tax compliance, and outsourced CFO/back-office engagements, complemented by transactional advisory and specialized compliance assessments (CCPA, GDPR, HIPAA, NAIC IT). Go-to-market is enterprise field sales through locally embedded advisors supported by vertical-specific landing pages, thought-leadership content, the 'Know to Grow' webinar series, and active social media presence. Domestic scale is reinforced through international reach via PrimeGlobal association membership.
