Doeren Mayhew, a national assurance, tax and advisory firm, has acquired Grand Rapids-based accounting firm Benoit & Associates, CPAs. Effective June 1, 2025, this acquisition deepens Doeren Mayhew’s tax practice and affirms its intentions to grow its West Michigan presence. 

“We think very highly of Benoit & Associates, which is why we’ve strengthened our relationship with Maurice and his team over the past several years,” says Joshua Garvey, Grand Rapids’ managing principal at Doeren Mayhew. “With our client-centric values being exceptionally aligned, it made sense to build upon our future together as a leading firm in the region.”

For over 30 years, Benoit & Associates has partnered with individuals and closely held businesses providing tax, accounting, business valuation and transaction advisory services to help clients address their immediate compliance needs and achieve their long-term strategic goals.

“The Doeren Mayhew team has always impressed me with their level of expertise and high-quality solutions. Their philosophy of adding value to clients beyond daily compliance perfectly mirrors our own,” says Maurice Benoit, managing director of Benoit & Associates. “Tapping into a robust infrastructure of resources driven by an exceptional team of proven professionals will allow us to deepen our client relationships, which is what we love to do. We are excited about this new chapter and the opportunities it creates for our team and our clients.”

Benoit joined Doeren Mayhew as a principal and has, along with his staff, relocated to the firm’s downtown Grand Rapids office located at 56 Cesar E. Chavez Ave. SW.

Doeren Mayhew’s continued growth is focused on its pursuit to expand service lines and specialized expertise in both its current regions and new ones. The firm has built its presence in the West Michigan market with the acquisitions of Beene Garter LLP in 2022, and most recently BHT&D CPAs in 2024.
