Access Wire
HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / February 9, 2015 /
Terry Williams, CEO of Fima, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, (OTC Pink:
FIMA) announced today that the company has retained Brio Financial
Group ("Brio") to be the company's financial reporting consultant
and audit firm while Szaferman, Lankind, Brumstein & Blader,
P.C., have been tabbed to be Fima's corporate legal counsel.
The first order of business for Brio will be to conduct Fima's
comprehensive audit. David Briones, managing partner of Brio
Financial, will oversee the audit and will be working with
Szaferman, Lankind, Brumstein & Blader, P.C., to bring the
company's financial records to a current reporting status, a
critical component necessary for the company to uplist to the
NASDAQ-OTCQB.
From 2006 through 2010, Briones managed the public company and
hedge fund practices at Bartolomei Pucciarelli, LLC ("BP"). Within
that capacity, Briones performed audit services, outsourced CFO
functions and consulted clients through the difficult SEC comment
period. Briones' consulting expertise has been essential in
navigating the application of complex accounting principles for the
company's vast public company client base. Briones also served as
the chief financial officer of Clear-Lite Holdings, Inc., from 2009
to 2011.
Prior to joining BP, Briones was an auditor with
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in New York. Briones specialized in the
financial services group, and most notably worked on the MONY
Group, Prudential Financial and MetLife initial public offerings.
Briones has a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from
Fairfield University in Fairfield, Conn.
"Acquiring the services of these two firms was the first logical
step for me as CEO, so I could expeditiously begin the
implementation of the company's business plan," Williams said. "Mr.
Briones has one of the sharpest minds in the financial sector and
you will not find finer legal representation than what we now have
with Szaferman and company."
The law firm of Szaferman, Lankind, Brumstein & Blader,
P.C., has been recognized as one of the top financial legal firms
in the country. The Lawrenceville, N.J.-based firm was recognized
in the 2014 and 2015 editions of U.S. News & World Report's
Best Law Firms as a Tier-1 firm, the highest recognition a
firm can receive.
