Our special pride is our people. The people of MHC&S are dedicated to providing every client with services of the highest quality. Our mix of professional staff tends to have a higher percentage of partners, managers and other senior personnel than many other firms. This mix allows us to assign experienced personnel to our engagements with the added benefit of reduced turnover.
Over the years, we have grown from 3 to approximately 50 team members with offices located in West Des Moines and Winterset. At MHC&S, we believe our firm is large enough to provide our clients with a broad base of experience, yet small enough to offer very personalized service...which we feel makes us stand apart from other firms.
