I was fortunate enough to work closely with Richard on several tax and accounting projects. He is one of the most committed and hardest working people I have had the pleasure to work beside. When it comes to tax and accounting, Richard seemingly has a eidetic memory. His level of precision and recall for rules and codes is nothing short of amazing.
— Carey Allen, Chief Operating Officer, Farella Braun + Martel
 
 
 

 
 
I worked with Richard for many years at Morrison Foerster. He is the most knowledgeable tax advisor I have worked with. The breadth of his expertise is excellent, from partnership, to sub-S to personal tax. I have called upon him many times for advice subsequent to my time at Morrison Foerster. I recommend him highly.
— Lee Reamy, Chief Financial Officer, Cornerstone Research
 
 

 
 
Richard took a very complicated and tax situation 10 years ago and restructured it. Being a customer has afforded me the opportunity to have a consultant on my team as well as a CPA. He has been instrumental in several business acquisitions and real estate opportunities as a consultant in reviewing the financials and their fit into my portfolio.

Richard is extremely knowledgeable and keeps abreast of the current tax laws. I am secure in the filing of my taxes that they are complete and thorough.

It is a pleasure to know that every year I will have the same professional, knowledgeable person on my team guiding me for the following year.
— Christina L., Entrepreneur
 
 

 
 
Richard is one of our go-to referrals for nonprofits requiring an accountant. He is a diligent professional with a particular interest in contributing to the sector in and outside of his work. And Richard helps keep us abreast of current nonprofit accounting issues.

I have known Richard Pon for over 11 years, originally as a business associate (where he was our outside CPA) and now as my personal tax consultant.

When working in the corporate world I found Richard to be extremely competent and knowledgeable regarding tax laws and procedures. During that time he handled several corporate entities complex questions and tax return filings.

Over the years I have continued using Richard as my family’s tax consultant and for preparing our annual tax filings. I can confirm he is a man of great integrity and is dedicated to his family and work.
— Mary Jane F., Retired Controller (formerly Rockwood Capital), Retired CPA
 
 
Richard has been my business (LLC, C Corp, S Corp, nonprofit) and personal tax advisor for several years. He is the best and is amazingly accurate, insightful, and trustworthy.
— Tom Low Social Entrepreneur and retired CFO
I have worked with Richard as a volunteer for six years as a member of the Asian Pacific Fund audit committee. He is extremely dedicated, reliable and supportive with incredibly high attention to detail. He always can be counted on to thoroughly review audit drafts.

As a CPA helping our organization’s charitable trusts, I’ve been impressed by Richard’s client education efforts (sharing emails, articles, updates), and getting tax returns filed in record time.
— Audrey Yamamoto , President & CEO of the US-Japan Council (Former Executive Director, Asian Pacific Fund)
