Breaking into the Top 300: Lucida Tax + Accounting Solutions Ranks #298 in IPA 2026 Top 500

We are proud to announce that Lucida Tax + Accounting Solutions has officially broken into the Top 300 accounting firms in the nation. According to the 2026 INSIDE Public Accounting (IPA) Top 500 rankings, Lucida has climbed to #298.

This milestone reflects our team’s dedication, our clients’ trust, and our steady, purposeful growth in a rapidly changing industry.

What the ranking measures

Each year, IPA ranks the nation’s 500 largest accounting firms by net revenue, using data firms submit through its annual Practice Management Survey. The list runs from the Big Four down to No. 500 and is grouped into the Top 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500. It is one of the most closely followed snapshots of firm size and growth in the profession.

A Trajectory of Steady Growth

The accounting landscape is evolving fast, but our focus on delivering high-impact tax and accounting solutions has kept us moving consistently upward. Our path through the IPA rankings shows that momentum:

1. 2024 No. 327 IPA Top 400
2. ▶
3. 2025 No. 304 IPA Top 400
4. ▶
5. 2026 No. 298 IPA Top 300

That’s a climb of 29 places in two years, moving Lucida from IPA’s Top 400 group into its Top 300.

Leading with Independence and Intention

This year’s milestone is especially meaningful given the wave of consolidation reshaping public accounting. As many firms have been acquired or merged in recent years, Lucida has carved its own independent path.

By keeping our roots in Brookfield and growing across our offices in Lake Geneva, Madison and Mequon, we’re showing that a client-first, local approach can keep pace with the largest firms in the country.

“Breaking into the Top 300 is a proud moment for all of us at Lucida Tax + Accounting Solutions, and it’s a compliment to see our ascension on this list. What drives us, though, is our clients and continuing to surround them with the tax, advisory, accounting and audit expertise they need to be successful. We believe strongly that by remaining independent and taking care of both our team and our clients, Lucida’s best days are still ahead.”

What this means for you

Growth matters to us because of what it lets us offer our clients. As Lucida grows, we can invest in more specialized expertise, a deeper bench of professionals, and better tools, while you keep working with the same people who know your business.
