If Monterey County has a home-grown Big Daddy to Rule Them All CPA firm, this is it. Nine partners, nine team members, support staff and services that include everything from audit and assurance to estate and trust planning to tax prep and (gulp) fraud and forensic accounting. The founders who gave the firm its name (that’d be Douglas Hayashi and Warren Wayland) may have departed, but the legacy lives on. When you need smart people to deal with your cash, or your business’ cash, hit up one of their four offices (Salinas, Carmel, Paso Robles and King City) and get your business done right the first time.
