Our History:
The firm was founded in 1923 by Waco’s first CPA, Frank L. Wilcox. Mr. Wilcox was married to the daughter of former Governor of Texas and Baylor University President, Pat Neff. As he grew in his career, Mr. Wilcox went on to be elected the Mayor of Waco, President of TSCPA and Vice President of the AICPA. As the firm gained traction, he added Pat Pattillo (also a former Mayor of Waco and Past President of the TSCPA!), Rodney Brown and Walter Hill as partners. Together, they created a basis for our firm today, branding their legacy within the Waco community. After Mr. Wilcox’s death, the firm’s name officially became Pattillo, Brown & Hill, L.L.P. In 1997, our Hillsboro office was acquired, with our firm in Albuquerque joining shortly after in 1998, followed by our Temple office in 2001. Our expansion into these communities is just the beginning of what is on our horizon!
