In late 2013, the firm added commercial real estate tax consulting to its services and announced it was merging with JRZ, LLC, an Atlanta-based real estate tax firm.[3]

Between 2017 and 2023, Aprio completed more than 20 mergers and acquisitions including Henderson & Godbee, Leaf Saltzman, RINA, and Ladd Robbins.[5][6] In 2022, Aprio was the 35th largest US firm by revenue according to Inside Public Accounting.[7]
In 2023, Aprio finalized a strategic combination with Washington D.C.–based Aronson, LLC, marking the firm’s largest transaction to date.[5] Also in 2023, a federal judge considered certifying a class action lawsuit in a case involving the alleged promotion of syndicated conservation easements.[8]
Due to its rapid expansion, Aprio was ranked as the fastest growing firm in the United States by Accounting Today.[9] In 2024, Aprio was one of the largest 30 accounting firms in the United States and the fifth largest accounting firm in Atlanta.[10][11] In June 2024, private equity firm Charlesbank Capital Partners announced its intentions and ultimately acquired a substantial stake in Aprio, though the exact terms were not disclosed.[10][12][13]
In May 2025, firm partner Lexy Kessler was elected to chair the upcoming term of the AICPA.[14]
