Over the years, the Altus Team has been extremely satisfied with Amber and Andy’s ability to manage cost by implementing unique ideas and strategies. Their abilities are comparable to the large firms, but offer the uniqueness of a local relationship. We are so fortunate to have them as a partner.

Peter Polimino, Altus Capital Partners, CFO

As TPI has grown and expanded across the Southeast, Andy and his team have grown with us and we consider them a true Partner. When issues arise, they respond quickly. Not only do they keep our management team happy with their abilities to manage cost, but they keep our employees happy with their service standards. The Hickman Knox team CARES!

Tom Gillcrist, Thomson Plastics, Inc., CFO

Over the last 10+ years RW Allen has enjoyed working with the H&K team. They do what they say and do it with urgency. We also appreciate the fact that their firm is committed to being locally owned and operated. This gives us comfort that their service standards will remain the same and their commitment is to us, not shareholders that we don’t know.
