Success Stories of Collaboration

Here are just a few examples of how LEA Global has helped companies like yours:

A middle market company began conducting business internationally but was hesitant to aggressively pursue opportunities in countries where the executives did not have professional contacts. Intimidated by the unknown, the company worked with another LEA Global firm to build a bridge, gaining local familiarity through LEA Global’s connections to accounting and banking contacts as well as attorneys. The new relationships also helped the company cut through much of the red tape involved in crossing borders. It helped reassure the firm that they would have the necessary, specialized international knowledge by leveraging their global community network of professionals through LEA Global.

A U.S. provider of sophisticated electronics equipment has customer locations in multiple states. When it faced a multimillion-dollar assessment for uncollected sales tax in the state of Washington, the electronics provider turned to its Oregon-based LEA Global firm for assistance. That firm reached out to a fellow member firm in Washington who used a past case to convince the states auditor to drop the assessment altogether.

When a company with subsidiaries around the world sought to outsource its tax function, it considered an LEA Global firm and a Big 4 accounting firm. The LEA Global firm coordinated the proposal with fellow member firms located where the company's subsidiaries were physically located. After reviewing both proposals, the company determined its complete global outsourcing solutions should be provided by the LEA Global firm. The expansive reach, customized approach and diversified exposure provided more overall value for the client.

A U.S. based gearbox manufacturer operates facilities in multiple countries. At one of its smaller operations in Europe, the manufacturer used a management agency to take care of payroll, invoicing, collections, and payables. When the manufacturer mentioned this to its LEA Global firm, they were then referred to a local LEA Global Dutch affiliate, which ultimately provided the same services for approximately half the cost of their previous agency.
