Hand in hand with HLB
HLB stands for the three founding companies from England, the USA and the Netherlands – Hodgson, Landau, Brands – and represents a network of independent, legally unaffiliated auditing, tax consulting and corporate consulting companies.
As early as 1972, auditors in Germany joined forces to master the increasing demands of their clients regarding national and international expertise.
The HLB Schumacher Gruppe has been a part of HLB since 1985 and participates in numerous bodies and working groups nationally as well as internationally.
Today, HLB Deutschland is a network of 23 independent and unaffiliated companies at 30 locations. More than 220 partners (auditors, tax consultants and attorneys) as well as more than 2,000 other professionals and employees with excellent qualifications support their clients in realising ambitious plans.
