Jerry Cornwell lived an amazing life, touched many lives and had a tremendous impact on our firm and the people working here. Jerry started with the firm in 1969 and in 1971 became the “5th partner” of what was then Singer Lewak Greenbaum & Goldstein, LLP. 

Throughout his career with the firm Jerry worked as a Partner in different practice areas including Business Management, and Audit as well as a variety of Leadership roles within the firm. Jerry was a great friend and mentor; dispensing his sage wisdom in that folksy Midwestern style he had. 

Everyone who met Jerry liked him very much. He was easy to talk to; and took special care in mentoring young professionals, many of whom grew to become partners of the firm. His impact on these many lives was enormous and his impact on the culture of the firm was a key component in creating a professional, exciting and fun atmosphere.  Jerry retired from the firm in 2001

Jerry was well-loved and we will forever be grateful to have known him. We are grateful that Jerry was there at the right place and at the right time to help guide the development of our firm and the many people working here.  All the memories we have shared with him will forever be cherished and remembered. Jerry will forever live in our hearts.
