Lincolns have been caring for clients in the Great Southern Region of Western Australia for over 50 years.
Today’s clients include family groups (some of whom have been with our firm since it began in the 1950’s) as well as small to large business and rural clients right across Southern Western Australia.
Lincolns is owned and run by four Albany based partners. They are well supported by a fantastic professional and caring team of 27 people who deliver a broad range of business and advisory services to clients.
Even though we operate from Albany our firm has a very strong network of related experts. This allows us to stay at the cutting edge of understanding the rapid changes and opportunities that are part of today’s business world. The partners and some of the team make time to actively contribute to local and regional business and community organisations. We do this as our contribution back into this wonderful region we live and operate in. This also assists Lincolns with the distinct advantage of being at the forefront of local and regional business issues and opportunities.
We are one of the few accountancy firms outside of the Perth Metropolitan region who has a dedicated training and research division. We conduct structured training every fortnight and attend specialist training Australia wide to ensure we have the technical resources to meet and exceed our client’s needs.
For our size, Lincolns remains a family orientated practice. We are aware of the importance of family. Because of this, our advice is not purely technical it also contains a strong human element.
Lincolns welcomes any prospective new client, big or small. We like to have a free initial “get to know you” session so we can both determine whether Lincolns is the right fit for your business.
