Baton Rouge (July 2023) – Attracct Accounting Advisors LLC, and D Dean CPA, LLC fka Dean and Dean CPAs are proud to announce the merger of their accounting practices this summer. The merged entity, whose parties began formally collaborating in 2021, will operate under the Attracct moniker. The merged businesses will provide a comprehensive suite of accounting, tax and advisory services for businesses of all sizes.
D Dean is a traditional bookkeeping and tax accounting practice who facilitated more than 500 business and personal tax returns in 2022.

“Merging with a firm like Attracct allows me to level-up the services I provide, transitioning my tax and bookkeeping clients into a service that is more immersive and advisory based,” David said. “As I begin succession planning to wind down my practice, it’s a win-win-win scenario, and I’m very pleased with this arrangement.” David plans to stay on with the company for a number of years.
