What Makes RBZ Unique

u•nique [ yoo néek ]:
1. only one: being the only one of a kind
2. special: different from others in a way that makes somebody or something special and worthy of note

To be considered "unique" is a high standard to live up to. We believe we do - here are some reasons why:

A Reputation For Excellence
Throughout our entire history, we have never been involved in litigation of any sort - something our clients consider an asset as much as we do. Our clients themselves are consistently included on the annual lists of other CPA firms and business journals recognizing exceptional growth, profitability and performance within their respective industries. Our reputation also extends beyond the county line of Los Angeles. We have been honored as one of the "Best of the Best" top 25 accounting firms in the United States by INSIDE Public Accounting and have been recognized for the "RBZ culture" in other publications like the New York Times.

Entrepreneurial Flexibility and Focus
Just like you, we run our business in an entrepreneurial manner. We understand the concept of managing the bottom line at every level. And we also teach this mind-set to all of our staff.

Accessible at Every Turn
You will find no less than four ways to reach us on our business cards. Returning your call in the same day will be a priority. When you need to reach us in an emergency, you will find us immediately.

Our Stability Means Your Security
We have managed our business so that we can spend our time and resources serving our clients. All the reasons that firms consolidate, acquire and dissolve do not exist for us. We are debt-free and have never borrowed a dollar since the inception of our firm. In addition, we are profitable and have already funded our partner retirement plan.

Exceptional Staff Retention
Our track record in staff retention is indeed unique – we have kept our staff turnover substantially below the industry average, which maintains the continuity of our clients’ service teams. In fact, our staff turnover has been less than ten-percent over the past five years.

Proven by Peer Review
We are long-time participants in the AICPA peer review process, an approved practice-monitoring program, where we have consistently received unqualified opinions since the inception of the program. Between each peer review, we also conduct an annual inspection of our firm’s system of policies and procedures for quality control.

Unparalleled Personal Service
Our goal is to provide you with a level of professionalism and personal service unmatched by any other firm. We take an individual approach to doing business and it’s what truly makes us different.

Through the years, we have helped businesses succeed, families prosper, and nonprofit organizations pursue their missions. From partners through staff, we collaborate on problem-solving to ensure that each team member understands client issues, from the most significant down to the smallest nuances. After all, our clients are unique as well.
