Industry-Specific Testimonials

We have worked with Vrakas for over 20 years. They have always provided us with timely and accurate information, recommendations, and services related to our taxes, corporate accounting, ESOP plan, and 401(k) plan. When we have a question or concern, they are always quick to get us the information we need. We appreciate the great relationship we have with the whole Vrakas team!
Holly L. Breien
CPA, CFO of Ruekert & Mielke, Inc.
I have done work with Vrakas for over 35 years. As I developed my law practice in Waukesha county many of my business clients were already using Vrakas. I referred any number of clients to them for accounting, tax, and valuation services and have never been disappointed. When I started my own law firm in Brookfield they became our accounting firm and my personal accounting firm which they are to this day. While many of the local quality accounting firms have been gobbled up by regional or national firms, Vrakas remains locally owned and operated with the expertise to compete with anybody. That’s a great combination.

17 years ago, Linda and I were introduced to Vrakas as we went about searching for a business to buy. From the first meeting, we knew that this was the firm we wanted to put our trust in for our accounting and tax needs. Seventeen years later they continue to earn and deserve that trust with their professionalism and service.

Strohwig Industries has been working closely with Vrakas CPAs and Advisors for almost 30 years. We work annually with the assurance department on our financial and employee benefit plan audits and with the tax department on our corporate and shareholder tax returns, as well as a few projects with the business valuation department over the years. Vrakas’ team is knowledgeable, personable, and professional. They are prompt in response when we have questions or if an issue pops up, and the service product and business advice we get from them is always top notch. Here at Strohwig, we view Vrakas not as a vendor, but as a business partner vital to the success of our company.
