Established in 1978, the firm of Bernard R. Dickman, CPA started as a small part time operation, working out of an office in his house located on his farm. In 1999 the firm moved into an office in Grinnell, Kansas. In November of 2002 the firm added Bernard's son, Jeremy Dickman, CPA to the practice as a staff accountant.





Bernard R. Dickman, CPA is a native of the Grinnell and Angelus communities who has returned to his home community after pursuing an accounting degree from Fort Hays State University and passing the CPA exam. For 2 years he worked with a large national accounting firm in an office located in Hays, Kansas before deciding that it was just not for him and his young family. And so in 1978 he came back to his small community roots to open a sole practitionership dedicated to the needs of the community that nurtured him. A family man, with a wife, one daughter and two sons, Bernard has stayed active in his community, both as a past girls basketball coach and a past member of the Grinnell School Board. It's the small-town homespun touch, combined with his thorough education and training, that has helped Bernard provide quality services to both the individuals and small businesses of Grinnell and the surrounding communities. In keeping with the family atmosphere of the practice Bernard added his son, Jeremy Dickman, CPA, to the practice as a staff accountant in November of 2002.
