History

Established in 1979.

In December 1979, after 2 years of work in the «Big 8» public accounting firm Haskins & Sells, Stephen Leake opened his own public accounting practice as Stephen A. Leake, CPA. Steve built a practice based on solid relationships and the principle of «Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,» also known as «The Golden Rule.» Steve made and maintained strong relationships with his clients based on mutual trust and understanding. In 2002, Steve discussed the issue of continuance of his firm with his son, Andy, who began taking business classes at UNT and discovered he had an aptitude for the same type of work his father had done for the past 25 years. Andy graduated with a degree in accounting and began working for Steve in his original firm, and passed the CPA exam shortly thereafter. They started the new family business in December 2010 as Leake CPA, continuing to maintain the same principles of honesty, diligence, and courtesy in business practice.
