SAX acquires SCL Consulting, bolstering client accounting services and Mid-Atlantic presence

SAX, a Top 100 national accounting, tax, and advisory firm, recently announced that SCL Consulting has agreed to join SAX LLP and SAX Advisory Group LLC, effective Nov. 14.

The acquisition strengthens one of SAX’s fastest-growing disciplines—Client Accounting Services (CAS)—and expands the firm’s reach into the Mid-Atlantic market.

Founded in 2014 by Shane Lease, SCL Consulting is a Maryland-based financial consulting firm recognized for its high-quality, tailored accounting and advisory solutions, particularly its strength in CAS.

  • Shane Lease, Founder of SCL Consulting, said joining SAX represents a “natural evolution” for his firm. “SAX’s strength in Client Accounting Services, along with its collaborative culture and focus on innovation, will allow us to continue serving our clients with even greater depth and efficiency,” Lease noted.

  • Joseph Damiano, CEO of SAX, highlighted the cultural alignment and shared commitment to client service. “By combining SCL’s deep experience in Client Accounting Services with our own established practice, we’re enhancing our ability to deliver exceptional results and drive continued growth for our clients,” Damiano stated.

This transaction follows SAX’s recent strategic minority investment from Cobepa, an independent investment company, which continues to accelerate the firm’s growth trajectory and enhance its service capabilities.
