With seven locations across South Carolina, and two in the Grand Strand, WebsterRogers LLP has been a beacon of financial expertise and exceptional service for nearly four decades. This outstanding accounting and consulting firm has not only left an indelible mark on the local business landscape but has also become synonymous with female leadership, exemplified by the esteemed Laura DuRant, whose legacy continues to inspire even after her retirement.

WebsterRogers LLP boasts an impressive array of services tailored to cater to the diverse needs of businesses along the Grand Strand. From tax planning and auditing to financial consulting and outsourced accounting, the firm’s dedicated team of professionals ensures that their clients receive the highest level of expertise and personalized attention.

One of the most significant facets of WebsterRogers’ success lies in its commitment to fostering female leadership within the firm. One of the strides in this area started in 2002 when Laura DuRant was brought in as a partner for the Myrtle Beach location. Through her pioneering efforts, Laura was able to leverage the broader capabilities and expertise in WebsterRogers and grow her practice into one of the largest in the region.

Her superior business acumen and unmatched client service, combined with her passion for community development, allowed the firm to expand its services to a broader clientele, making it a pillar of support for businesses in the region.

Today, five of the eleven WebsterRogers’ partners are female, including the Managing Partner, Amy Urquhart. Additionally, more than half of the firm’s 112 employees are female.

The company continues to serve clients across all industries but has a special focus on Hospitality, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Real Estate and Construction businesses.

As Laura DuRant began a new chapter in her life in 2020 with a well-deserved retirement, her legacy lives on at WebsterRogers LLP. Many of her long-term clients now work with the next generation of talented WR professionals, who follow her model of community engagement and exceptional client service. Her contributions have not only helped shape the firm’s remarkable journey but also continue to influence the company’s ethos of fostering female talent and providing unparalleled service to clients throughout the Grand Strand.
