LaPorte CPAs & Business Advisors

LaPorte CPAs & Business Advisors, established in 1946, operated as a trusted independent firm for nearly eighty years before merging with Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC effective December 1, 2025. Based in Louisiana and Texas, LaPorte was one of the largest accounting and advisory firms in the region, with five office locations and a focus on delivering high-quality accounting, tax, and business advisory services. The firm was recognized as a top 200 accounting firm by Inside Public Accounting for over a decade. As part of Mauldin & Jenkins, a Top 100 CPA firm founded in 1918, LaPorte clients now benefit from expanded technical resources, deeper expertise in complex assurance and tax matters, and access to broader service offerings. The merger provides clients with proven stability and the strength of a major firm nationally recognized for quality, while maintaining the same core team in the same offices. LaPorte served clients across major industries including construction, dealerships, energy, financial services, healthcare, hospitality, professional services, nonprofit, public sector, and real estate. The firm was committed to personalized client success and community engagement throughout its history.
