VLS Has Successful Peer Review

In 1988, the members of the AICPA overwhelmingly approved a proposal to require members in public practice to participate in a practice-monitoring program. With the adoption of this proposal, the AICPA implemented a peer review program of unprecedented scope in the CPA profession or any other. Our participation in the peer review demonstrates our firm's desire to measure up to the profession's high standards of professionalism and our commitment to maintaining and improving the quality of our practice.

Our peer review was conducted by Campbell, Benn & Taylor, a CPA firm based in Sacramento, California. The reviewers first determined that we have an adequate quality control system, and then checked to see that professional standards were followed in a representative sample of our accounting and auditing engagements.

After thorough study of our policies and procedures, the reviewers concluded that Vicenti, Lloyd & Stutzman LLP complies with the stringent quality control standards established by the AICPA. Our firm is committed to periodic peer reviews to foster quality performance. Access our 2001 and 1998 Peer Reviews.
