When it comes to business growth, Boca Raton is more than a destination
— it’s a catalyst. For CohnReznick, a leading professional services firm, Boca Raton has become the heartbeat of its Florida expansion.
The firm first entered the Florida market in 2021 with its Miami office, led by Emily Butler, Office Managing Partner and Commercial Real Estate Industry Leader for the Mid-Atlantic Region.
“Miami was a natural starting point,” Butler explains. “It allowed us to meet the needs of the expanding South Florida marketplace while building on our national expertise in industries such as commercial real estate and financial services.”
Two years later, CohnReznick accelerated its growth by combining with Daszkal Bolton, a respected local firm with deep roots in Boca Raton. That move immediately gave the firm a strong community presence and positioned Boca Raton as the firm’s largest and most dynamic Florida hub complemented by offices in Fort Lauderdale and Jupiter.
At the helm in Boca Raton is Brett Burgan, newly appointed Office Managing Partner for South Florida and leader of CohnReznick’s M&A Insurance Advisory and Restructuring & Dispute Resolution practice. With over 20 years in the Boca business community, Burgan brings local insight and a forward-thinking approach.
“By integrating the national capabilities of CohnReznick with the local expertise and team we have in South Florida, we’ve established meaningful scale and relevance to serve clients across key sectors from private client services and estate planning to construction, manufacturing and technology,” Burgan notes.
“Our Boca Raton office not only serves as a catalyst for growth, it complements the foundation we built in Miami to create a powerful network of local talent and services,” says Butler.
Looking ahead, CohnReznick’s Florida strategy shows no signs of slowing. The firm recently opened offices in Tallahassee and Tampa and is exploring new opportunities in cities such as West Palm Beach and Jacksonville.
“Florida’s business climate continues to attract companies, investors and family offices,” Burgan emphasizes. “We see tremendous opportunity to grow alongside them and be long-term partners to the business community.”
From its Boca Raton hub, CohnReznick continues to play a key role in shaping business growth across Florida.
