The Alterra Story

The Alterra Accountants and Business Advisors story started over twenty years ago as Adrian L. Jacob Ltd., a very successful regional CPA firm serving a variety of small to mid-sized private companies.

Alterra was born out of three convergent passions:

  1. A deep-rooted passion for client success.
  2. A compelling need to do be decidedly better than the norm. We are simply not content with being viewed as a necessary evil. We are committed to being integral ongoing contributors to our clients’ success.
  3. A commitment to providing wider access to our comprehensive accounting and business advisory service.

Alterra is Different

  1. We have a clear understanding of our client–we have never been “one firm fits all”, and we never will be.
  2. Because we focus on small and medium-sized businesses and their owners, we have the luxury of being laser-focused on what our clients need (and what they don’t).
  3. We have streamlined our service-offering to efficiently provide everything our clients need.
  4. We have a clear understanding of the passion, talent, experience and expertise that our clients have for their business.
  5. We only engage passionate professional staff that possess relevant experience and expertise.
  6. We embrace an ongoing commitment to provide the safest, most robust support infrastructure available.
  7. Most important, our results are different.
    The proof is in the pudding–just ask our clients.
