LOS ANGELES, CA – GHJ, a national advisory, tax and accounting firm, has been named to the 2026 Accounting Today Firms to Watch list and recognized as a regional leader in the West. Accounting Today evaluates accounting firms across the U.S. each year to determine recipients of these honors. 

“We are proud of what our Firm has accomplished this past year,” GHJ Managing Partner Tom Barry said. “Accolades aside, we are a firm rooted in deep technical expertise that is growing alongside clients to support them in a complex financial ecosystem. We strive to be the consultants our clients trust when they need to turn to someone. We want to provide answers and solutions to their toughest challenges.”

To support growing client needs for financial oversight and advisory services, GHJ expanded its capabilities this year through:
