KAWG&F HONORED AS AN INNOVATOR OF THE YEAR

Baltimore, MD- Baltimore-based Katz, Abosch, Windesheim, Gershman, and Freedman, P.A. (KAWG&F) was honored as 2004 Innovator of the Year by The Maryland Daily Record for their revolutionary paperless initiative.

“We are pleased The Daily Record has honored us with such a prestigious award,” said Alvin Katz, Co-founder of KAWG&F. “To have been recognized as an innovator in the Baltimore community is an amazing compliment. This award validates the 35 years of hard work provided by all of the members of the KAWG&F team who have dedicated themselves daily to assure our clients uncompromising service.”

KAWG&F was selected as an Innovator of the Year along with 24 other individuals and organizations in Maryland. The awards were started by The Daily Record two years ago to seek out and recognize Maryland organizations, companies, and individuals who have demonstrated the spirit of innovation by creating products, services or programs that benefit their businesses, industries, or communities.

Although “paperless” and “high-tech” are not two words you may ordinarily associate with accountants, paperless technology is one way KAWG&F is revolutionizing their industry to better serve their clients. In 2003, KAWG&F officially kicked-off their electronic document management system.

By doing away with paper and using protected electronic files, KAWG&F accountants are able to access client files from anywhere, increase revenue and billable hours, and provide better service to their clients. Paperless technology is positioned to better centralize the many documents that go into tax returns, financial statements, business returns, valuations and estate planning paperwork. Eliminating the paper shuffle and physical time involved in tracking down files makes the process of organizing finances for an individual or business more efficient. It also enables KAWG&F to service clients at anytime and from any location.

As one of the 125 largest accounting firms in the country, KAWG&F is headquartered in Towson, Maryland, with offices in Columbia and Bel Air. An expert staff and leading edge technology enable KAWG&F to provide the highest quality service and most personal accounting, tax, financial and management consulting services to each of its clients.
