L. Joe Edmondson, CPA

Joe is the guy you call when you are looking for straight-up advice on your business. The majority of his clients have relied on his counsel for over 40 years. So for Joe, it goes way beyond the audit or the taxes – it’s helping business owners sleep a little better at night knowing that they can pick up the phone and talk to him.




Joe has been a public accountant for over 60 years. After earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from the University of Alabama, Joe joined the Nashville office of international certified public accounting firm Peat, Marwick & Mitchell for the first 16 years of his career before forming Marlin & Edmondson, P.C. in 1976. Over the years Joe has specialized in providing audit, tax, and organizational consulting services. He is an active member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
