Biography

Scott Sonley’s career began in 2003 at a mid-market Southwestern Ontario firm where he obtained his Chartered Professional accountant (CPA) designation. Family ties and friends brought him back to Durham Region when he rejoined Baker Tilly KDN LLP in 2008, having previously been with the firm as part of a university co-op placement. Throughout his career, Scott has developed long-standing clients who rely on him for his broad experience in accounting, assurance, and taxation.

Scott obtained his Chartered Business Valuator (CBV) designation in 2015 and in 2017 the Certified in Financial Forensics (CFF) and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) designations – he transitioned from CDFA to Chartered Financial Divorce Specialist (CFDS) in 2021. In addition, he holds a bachelor of mathematics and post baccalaureate diploma in accounting from the University of Waterloo.

Becoming a leader in his areas of expertise, he took on the role of senior vice president of Litigation Accounting & Valuation Services at Baker Tilly KDN Consulting. In 2023, Scott became partner at the firm and continues to provide clients the clarity required to meet their diverse and complex valuation needs.
