Abbott, Stringham & Lynch acquires ArightCo to broaden finance services
What's the deal? Abbott, Stringham & Lynch, a San Jose-based accounting firm, has acquired ArightCo, a finance and accounting solutions provider. The deal brings ArightCo's outsourced finance and accounting capabilities under Abbott, Stringham & Lynch's umbrella, expanding the firm's service offerings beyond traditional accounting and advisory work.
