About Us
Introducing POLAY + CLARK
Company History
Robert Polay founded the company back in 1999, after working at a traditional CPA firm for over a decade, where he developed a niche as an expert in entertainment accounting. Robert was inspired by his grandfather, who was the road manager for Fats Domino in the mid-1950s. His grandfather educated him about both sides of the music business – the good and the bad.
Why Choose Us?
Polay + Clark began as a boutique music business-management firm, thanks to the firm’s proficiencies with tour accounting, multi-state taxation and royalty analysis, which augmented the core outsourced accounting department function that business managers provide.
As the client base grew, the firm expanded and a full-service traditional CPA firm was founded to handle the needs of small business owners and individuals. Lorne Clark soon joined the company as an immediate-name partner. Lorne brought an initial roster of top NBA talent as well as his unique set of comprehensive skill and knowledge. Lorne’s background as a sports agent combined with his tenure at a large Los Angeles business-management firm has proven to be an invaluable component to the team.
