Founded in 1934, GSG provides accounting, tax and advisory services, with specializations in real estate, health care, nonprofit and construction industry clients. The deal marks Sorren's entry into the Maryland market and adds an office in Owings Mills. 

"Joining Sorren represents a significant milestone for our firm and our clients," Scott Rodgville, who will serve as the managing partner of the Owings Mills office, said in a statement. "As we've grown over the decades, we've remained committed to personalized service, strong client relationships, paths for success for our team members and support for our community. Sorren shares that same philosophy, making this a natural fit for our next phase of growth."

Sorren is backed by private equity firm DFW Capital Partners and was formed in May 2025 through the combination of 13 firms. At the time of its formation, it had 85 partners and roughly $170 million in revenue. This year, it ranked No. 48 on Accounting Today's Top 100 Firms list, reporting $193 million in revenue, with 101 partners and over 1,100 employees across 24 offices.

"GSG has built an impressive legacy by staying true to its client-first approach while continuing to evolve," Sorren CEO Josh Tyree said in a statement. "That balance of tradition and forward-thinking is exactly what we value at Sorren as we expand our national platform."

Art Kuesel of Kuesel Consulting and Marc Rosenberg of Rosenberg associates advised both parties on the deal, stating that "the alignment between these two firms was uncanny from the beginning."

Sorren, based in Meridian, Idaho, has been growing through acquisitions. This year, it added Hess & Rohmer in Texas in January and Connected Accounting in California in February. Last year, it added Healthworks in Virginia in October, and RTO & Co. in Oregon, as well as Casey Neilon in Nevada in December.
