What our clients say...

This is just a quick note to say thank you.  Over the last year you and your colleagues at Richard Place Dobson have handled our affairs quickly, efficiently and professionally.  Nothing has been too much trouble.

You have always been there when we needed you, making the minefield of Charity accounts, audit and where relevant, tax, so much easier to navigate.  And, of course, it is very reassuring to know that, with your help, we are fully complying with SORP and other relevant regulations and legislation

I am sure we will be using you for many years to come

Janusz Sikora-Sikorski - Chairman, The Polish Catholic Mission

 

I have worked with Sue and David from Richard Place Dobson for over a year now.  They have been involved in accounts preparation, P11d preparation and support for our annual audit performed by our group auditors.  I have found them to be supportive and professional, and they have always met their previously agreed deadlines.  In fact, they have made me feel that we were their only client, which in many ways is the highest praise one can give to a professional services firm!

Jim Crooks - Managing Director, Fire Services, Connaught Compliance Limited

I would like to thank you and your team for the speedy year end audit and preparation of accounts. I take great pride that everything was signed off and submitted to Companies House exactly two weeks from our year end!

Our industry is very fast paced and changing constantly. We have relied on your technical expertise and tax advice to help us during our six years of incredible growth. It is a pleasure to deal with a firm of accountants that understands our business and personal goals and works with us to realise them.

We have always found all the partners and your staff very professional, helpful and friendly.

Dale Nursten – Director, S2S Limited

Over the last year you and your colleagues have handled my company’s affairs quickly, efficiently and professionally.

You have always been there when we needed you, making the minefield of tax and accounts so much easier to navigate. And, of course, it is very re-assuring to know that, with your help, we are fully complying with business law and not paying a penny more in tax than we need to.

I would also like to point out the gratitude I have on behalf of my company for you explaining to me how I need to work “on” my business and not “in” the business. This is a huge new mindset for me, and so I wanted to express my gratitude.

Heidi Dodkins

As you know, the last few years have been a real struggle for us, particularly since we were lacking direction as a business. Then you introduced us to your added value services.

We were quite nervous about spending more time and money on unnecessary investments. How wrong we were! Not only have we saved time, we’ve saved money too, especially since using the new system you gave us.

Turning our business into a thriving enterprise was my main concern. You and your team have turned that challenge of developing what we already knew, but found hard to put into practice, a simple one-step process.

I'm eager to spend more time working on the business and looking forward to hearing more of your ideas. Please get in touch so that I can refer some of my business colleagues on to you.

Sven Sorensen – Director, The Clinic Dental Facial Limited

Richard Place Dobson have been our auditors for over 20 years, providing us with sound financial advice and efficient audits.

Running an SME can be a solitary experience and good, impartial advice is hard to come by. I have found Richard Place Dobson to be a helpful, approachable and consistent source of financial advice.

I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

David Lambert – Managing Director, Safeguard Europe Limited

Working with Richard Place Dobson we find you to be a friendly and helpful company to do business with, whoever we speak to from receptionist to Partners.

As a relatively small company our relationship with you is very important. We see you more as our financial director than accountant. Your experience, knowledge and support in helping us to grow our business is very much appreciated.

The value added services you provide really make a difference.

David Want & David Meadham, Directors, JR Print Services

Having had cause to review and change many of the suppliers that I have worked with over the last seven years, I am pleased to say that this has never been necessary with Richard Place Dobson and can confidently claim to have found the right people for the job!

Alistair Morris – Director, The Morris Partnership Limited

Richard Place Dobson have built a successful and experienced Charities Advisory Team. It is essential to receive correct and appropriate guidance when dealing with accounting matters for Charities. The increasing accounting complexities and requirement for greater transparency means Charities must have access to good, sound advice. It is reassuring to know that Darren Harding and his team at RPD are available and ready to help at all times as well as at the busy year end.

We look forward to continuing our close professional relationship for some time to come and would recommend them to other Charities.

Chris Mitchell – Trustee, Crawley Dial-a-Ride

RPD have been our auditors for several years and have always provided us with a timely, efficient and (unbelievably for Accountants!) good value for money - the latter is very important to those of us working in the Charitable Sector. Dialogue has always been managed in friendly and pragmatic terms with an enlightened approach to our needs always being in evidence.

We are delighted with the service we receive from the team and have no hesitation in recommending them to others in this sector.

Lloyd Richards – Crawley Citizens Advice Bureau

It has been particularly good for us to be able to depend on you for friendly, thoughtful and cost effective advice.

You have taken the trouble to get to know the society and its sometimes complicated organisation and we have much appreciated the knowledge that we have been in good and reliable hands.

The end of the year audit has always been conducted with minimum loss and has produced really good advice and factual accuracy.

The Japan Society

 

We have employed Richard Place Dobson as our accountants since the beginning of 2008 to replace our previous accountants.

In that time we have been under Mr Maurice Frost and his team and found them easy to work with, able to provide information and assistance when we need it and have been very supportive of this company.  

I would have no hesitation in recommending their services to any company looking for an efficient and dedicated accountancy company.]

F M G Penfold - Managing Director, Quadplas Limited

 

I would like to express my thanks to you and your staff for their co-operation and assistance in preparing these accounts.  We faced the prospect of changing auditors with some trepidation, but this proved groundless.  In fact this first audit has been smoother and easier for all our staff, and your team has helped us improve controls, management information and save tax.

We are almost looking forward to next year's audit!

D L Appleton - Company Secretary, Vanpoulles Limited

 

We have used Richard Place Dobson for a good many years now and we are pleased to say we'd happily recommend you.

We get consistently good professional service and help in managing our deadlines so that everything gets done when it should.  The key thing that sets Richard Place Dobson apart is the keen interest taken in learning about and keeping up to date with our business and future plans.  Knowing our business helps in delivery of good value for money, effective service.

Thank you to everyone at Richard Place Dobson who is involved with our account

Mike Davis - Wealden Services Ltd

 

Richard Place Dobson have been managing our company's book-keeping, taxation and payroll since we began over 17 years ago.  

We have been particularly impressed with their payroll service which has always been efficient, accurate and very prompt which is, of course, essential for our employees.  

Year on year I have found Richard Place Dobson to be a professional and friendly company and would highly recommend them.
