  • Multi-location planning including interstate and international tax issues.
  • Tax controversy and litigation support



"Jodi's wealth of tax acumen, and understanding of how to deploy it on behalf of a wide range of businesses, provides our clients with an ever deeper level of expertise," Harry Cendrowski, CCA Managing Director, said. "In addition to her work as an expert witness in tax litigation, Jodi is well known in the Chicagoland area given her two decades-plus of experience in the city's business community," he added.

Previously, Mersinger has held senior management tax positions with regional and national firms, including Tax Director at Sikich LLP, a national accounting and consulting firm headquartered in Naperville, IL; and, as a Senior Manager in Tax Services at Wipfli LLP, headquartered in Milwaukee, as they began to expand their IL presence. Earlier, she was a Tax Partner at the former Wolf & Company, LLP (now known as BKD) in the Chicago area, where she spent a number of years.


Mersinger graduated from DePaul University's Charles H. Kellstadt Graduate School of Business with a Masters of Science in Taxation (MST), and from Eastern Illinois University with a B.S. degree in Accountancy.
