About Our Firm

The current office of Savage, Esplin & Radmall located in the new Main Street Plaza at 20 North Main.

Savage, Esplin, & Radmall, PC, is one of the first and most respected CPA firms in St. George, providing professional, prompt, and accurate service in a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. The firm's modest inception occurred in April 1973 when Rodney F. Savage, a CPA since 1969, returned from Los Angeles to open the St. George branch of Huskinson & Gubler. His office was located in a small trailer house on a dirt lot near the corner of Main Street and Tabernacle.

The firm's founders - Garn Huskinson, Joe Gubler, and Rod Savage - created an atmosphere of friendly professionalism and client dedication. From these roots, a close connection with the firm's patrons was shaped and its focus on meeting the needs of its clients was established. Because of this enduring standard, the firm quickly gained the respect of the community. In December 1973, the firm's office moved to the upper-east side of the Washington Mutual Building at 95 East Tabernacle. Lee Esplin, a CPA since 1980, and Steve Radmall, a CPA since 1988, later contributed to the firm's namesake.

Savage, Esplin & Radmall, PC, as it was later to be known, continued to develop over the ensuing years, growing with the community and adding employees to its ranks. In 1980, the office moved to 205 East Tabernacle, then again in 1983 to 435 East Tabernacle.

Today, seven CPAs, including three partners, and five supporting professionals contribute excellent knowledge and enthusiasm to the firm, creating its professional and uniquely personal environment. Savage, Esplin & Radmall, PC, continues to maintain a solid standard of commitment to the needs of its elite clients, providing them with dedicated superior service. Its track record of client satisfaction is a testament to the exceptional quality of its expertise and service; many of its original clients continue to return to Savage, Esplin & Radmall, PC, for their tax and financial needs.

The offices of Savage, Esplin & Radmall, PC, moved again in August 2005, this time to the newly constructed Main Street Plaza located near the very site of its original trailer home office. However, the commitment to professionalism and client relations will never change.
