Payroll Companies & Payroll Services in Neenah, WI

Di Renzo & Bomier, LLC is a professional services firm based in Neenah, Wisconsin, that combines a law practice with an accounting practice under one roof. Its clients include individuals, families and businesses throughout the northeastern part of the state, with Appleton, Green Bay and Oshkosh among the communities it names. Payroll is one of the services offered by its accountants, which gives employers a way to keep payroll, tax work and legal questions with a single provider.

Accounting and Payroll Services

The accounting side of the firm lists six services, and payroll is among them. The website offers no detailed description of how payroll is run, so an employer will want to ask about pay schedules, tax deposits and reporting before committing. What the site does make clear is that the work is done by certified public accountants who try to learn each client's circumstances and goals. The services are:

• Payroll services
• Business consulting
• Financial statement preparation
• Tax planning and research
• Tax preparation for businesses
• Tax preparation for individuals

According to the firm, each client works closely with a single accountant. The accountants say they have thorough knowledge of Wisconsin tax law and financial regulation, and they offer guidance on budgeting, payroll and growing a business. The firm stresses plain, jargon-free communication and says it has long handled client matters ethically and confidentially. Its tax goals are to cut liability where possible, increase returns and complete filings accurately and on time.

Legal Support Employers Can Draw On

Businesses can also turn to the firm's attorneys. Areas of particular interest to employers include:

• Employment law
• Workers' compensation
• Business, commercial and tax law
• Finance law
• Administrative and municipal law

The firm describes its legal approach as one built on thorough preparation, direct contact with the attorney rather than a hand-off to support staff, and a preference for negotiation and planning over unnecessary litigation. It also points to a record of favorable settlements and jury verdicts, and to familiarity with Wisconsin law, federal and state courts and administrative agencies.

History and People

The firm's roots go back to two law students, Bob Di Renzo and Jerry Bomier, who agreed to become partners after school. Their plans were delayed when Di Renzo returned to military service as a fighter pilot and Bomier became an FBI investigator. They revived the idea, and the firm opened in 1953.

It now describes itself as a long-established presence in the Fox Cities and says more Neenah-area residents have trusted it with estate, corporate and legal planning than any other firm.

Today the attorneys carry roughly 150 years of combined experience, and four accountants are listed on the site: David Hillebrandt, David Benson, Erin Koplitz and Rebecca Van Kauwenberg. The team lives in the Fox Valley and Green Bay areas, and members volunteer for local charities, serve on boards, run mock trials with high school students and take part in community events.

Who It Suits

The firm's chief advantage for payroll clients is the pairing of accounting and legal expertise within one organization. That may appeal to small and mid-sized employers whose payroll questions touch on taxes, employment rules or workers' compensation. Payroll is one service among many here, not the firm's only focus, so companies wanting a dedicated payroll software product should confirm the exact scope of service in an initial conversation.
