The Story

Dave Burton is a CPA licensed in New York and Florida with over 15 years of experience spanning public accounting, corporate finance leadership, and entrepreneurship.

Before founding Maverick Advisors, Dave served as a Global Controller and CFO for mid-market companies, led audit and advisory engagements at top-tier firms, and built finance functions from the ground up for high-growth businesses.

Dave launched Maverick Advisors to bring institutional-grade finance and accounting to growing companies — without the overhead of a full-time hire. His approach blends deep technical expertise with AI-enabled workflows, delivering faster closes, cleaner books, and the kind of strategic clarity that drives real business decisions.

When he's not embedded with a client's finance team, Dave is building internal AI agents and tools that push the boundaries of what a modern outsourced finance practice can look like.

Our Philosophy

Unconventional thinkers. We don’t follow the traditional outsourced accounting playbook. We leverage AI, build custom tools, and challenge the status quo — because “that’s how it’s always been done” isn’t a good enough reason.

Unmatched service. We embed as an extension of your team. We show up, we communicate, and we take ownership. Our 100% client retention rate isn’t a marketing stat — it’s the result of treating every engagement like a partnership.
