In 1998, the founding partners of Delk Rutherford & Associates joined together to form what was then known as Delk & Associates CPA. Delk Rutherford & Associates built their firm on the understanding that what most small to mid-sized businesses owners really want from an accountant is sound financial advice from someone who truly knows what they face on a daily basis. "Our client base is filled with fast growing companies owned by entrepreneurial minded people," commented Cherie Rutherford. "It's our job to help them succeed." Gladden Delk added, "We are committed to building personal relationships with you and your business. When appropriate, we like to perform some of our work at your location. This saves you time and expense while enabling us to better understand your needs." Over the years, Delk Rutherford & Associates has grown and now has the priviledge of serving hundreds of small to mid-sized business clients throughout the Miami Valley and Tri-State region.
