History
Established in 1976.
The firm was founded in 1976 by the late Donald L. Fick. Over the years, Mr. Fick became known in the St. Louis area for his expertise in the areas of non-profit accounting and auditing, as well as individual taxation. He retired in 2001. In 1985, Lee Eggemeyer joined the firm and then founded the Columbia, IL office in 1986. Lee grew the Columbia office for many years and was the managing partner until he sold his interest in the firm in 2011. In 1999, Shawn Williamson joined the firm as an audit manager. In 2011, Shawn became the managing partner of Fick, Eggemeyer, and Williamson CPAs with a specialty in non-profit and single auditing as well as serving as the quality control partner for the firm. In 2022, Shawn stepped down from managing partner and Keith took on the role supported by his fellow partners Curtis, James, Jennifer, and Leslie.
F.E.W. CPAs is now a multi-state, multi-office accounting firm with a staff of 19 full-time professionals and well over 3,000 clients.
