"Scalepoint had engaged a large national CPA firm on entry into the US and therefore 7 years later were surprised to find that our US subsidiary had significant compliance issues. H&B was able to help Scalepoint into full compliance and successfully get over $100,000 in penalties removed. I give Hanne and her team the best recommendations." - Jess Georg Lyngby, Scalepoint Technologies

"I have been working with Hanne, as our independent auditor, since the beginning of 2008. Our specialty is to be a San Diego based private company with operations in US and Europe (mostly in France), so the audit of our consolidated statements needs an ability to cooperate with our French auditors, dealing with variations between French and US Gaap. Hanne has consistently demonstrated a high level of client service and is a highly recommendable professional." - Fabrice Lévy, CFO at KYRIBA

"I enjoy working with Hanne LeLoup and the fantastic H&B team. They are very collaborative in their approach and have helped us get through what seemed like a monumental task of reconciliation in a very limited time. We all really stepped up, most of us working through the night and as a team we were able to conclude the project and file on time, and we avoided some very large late penalties. H&B has recently helped us set up QuickBooks online correctly for our bookkeeping and we are seeing how we can easily work together across the Atlantic using this very intuitive software and some integrated and seamless processes. Looking forward to the new and exciting journey we are on together and what’s next to implement so that our systems always are updated and running more efficient between our parent company in Denmark and our daughter company in US. I am very happy with the expertise, team work and practical solutions! I can highly recommend Hanne LeLoup and H&B." - Christina Blak Pedersen Norlase

"For a three year period I worked as the CFO at CAPRES A/S. The company had a subsidiary in the US that Hanne LeLoup and her team at Hutchinson & Bloodgood in San Diego did the management reporting, tax returns, etc. For a Danish company with a US subsidiary operating in various states, the reporting and tax issues seem very complex. Hanne LeLoup displayed a great knowledge and experience within these fields and I really enjoyed working together with her and her team. I can strongly recommend Hanne LeLoup and Hutchinson & Bloodgood in San Diego as financial and tax advisor to any Danish company having to operate in the US." -  Frank Thy Manager at Basico P/S
