We’ve helped grow, and grown with, some of WA’s most well-known businesses for over 25 years.

DFK Gooding Partners was founded in 1998 by a small team of founding partners galvanised with the vision of building a boutique accounting firm on a foundation of high quality, personalised financial and advisory services. The key objective was to establish long-term partnerships with clients by closely aligning shared interests, and building opportunities for each party to value-add.

We believe the best way to get to know our clients is through their palate.

It’s our priority to get to know you personally, before we know and understand your businesses or personal finances. This commitment to a relationship orientated, value based approach to service is why 2023 marks our 25th year of business. All our client relationships are centered around trust built from integrity, confidentiality, open communication and mutual respect.
