First time customer, and definitely looking forward to working with Brian for the next few years! Brian was incredibly knowledgable, friendly, and professional during our initial consultation. He provided great insight and answered all my questions regarding my business in the film industry and tax planning. Now i'm looking forward to tax season! 5/5, highly recommend!

My wife and I have had a few bad experiences with the CPAs we dealt with the past few years so we were in the market for a new CPA this tax season. We wanted to find someone local who was knowledgable, organized & most importantly a good human being. We found that in Mr. Brian T. Stoner! Brian is amazing. He was so quick to see us when we first reached out to him and has been very kind to be so accessible every since. Brian really made the daunting task of filing our taxes as easy as I have ever experienced in the past.
He's even helping us with setting up our new company and I believe this is a relationship that will last for many years to come. Brian has such a great personality and all the smarts to make sure your CPA needs are always taken care of in a professional and timely manner. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP BRIAN!

Brian is the best CPA that I have come across after all my years of filing taxes. Brian has guided me through a maze of IRS jargon and paperwork and is helped me at all levels of IRS dealings everything from basic filing to massive IRS debt. He not only has the knowledge to help you make the best decisions for yourself when dealing with this massive government entity but he also has resources that if you find yourself in dire straits with this giant government conglomerate you can rest assured there's way to relief. All in all this is a great place to do business with!

Brian Stoner is my husband's & my go-to Tax Expert! He is thorough, intelligent, & knowledgeable about all things finance & tax-related. But, even more importantly, he is compassionate and truly cares about his clients. Since 2011, he has worked hard to provide us the best possible services, and we trust him implicitly. He always makes us feel at ease and we truly consider him a friend.
It's a relief to have him on our side as we deal with our complicated tax matters each year, but we also enjoy going into his office (located conveniently in Burbank) to catch up and share some laughs too! I'm not usually one to post reviews like this, but we are huge fans of Brian Stoner! If you need help with your taxes, look no further than Brian. :)

I cannot speak highly enough about Brian. He is a true professional and has been my whole family's CPA for years. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. He always returns your calls, emails and is a pleasure to interact with. Thank you for everything Brian if I can give you 10 starts I would.

Brian is everything I like and want in a CPA. He is an up-to-date accountant who is very knowledgeable. I immediately felt at home and comfortable working with him. He's relaxed, but gets the job done. He's also easy to get a hold of for questions, either via phone, text or email. I've recommended Brian to several of my friends for next year's tax season, and I'll certainly be back. My 2016 tax refund was much more than expected, due to his extreme diligence. I highly recommend Brian T. Stoner, CPA.

Brian Stoner has been my CPA for the past 28 years. During that time I have been filing over 9 returns ( Trusts, Partnerships, LLCs, Personal, Corporations) annually (State and Federal, which actually totals 18 returns). Brian is the best CPA/Advisor I have ever worked with. He is conversant with all of the changes in the Tax Law, and has put me in touch with some wonderful Attorneys and Financial Planners. Brian is creative and imaginative and has helped me set up and structure the businesses I am in.
He is totally non-judgmental and totally honest. I have had at least 3 IRS and FTB audits that Brian has handled for me, the results of which were all in my favor. He has worked with my Attorneys in setting up Trusts and Wills. When my parents and my wife passed away, the advice and tax planning that Brian gave me saved a significant amount of money.
He is very generous in the advice that he gives and he is very fair about the fees that he charges. He has helped me plan in advance for any yearly taxes that have been due, so there were never any amounts due that I had not provided for. You can feel comfortable asking him any question and he will give you an explanation that is easy to understand. Brian has a casual and friendly manner about him, and more importantly, he is a consummate professional.
I am an Attorney and I have sought the advice of tax and legal experts in my time, but nobody, in my experience, is more qualified, knowledgeable, and solution oriented than Brian. This is a person you meet once in a lifetime.

Brian’s blog alone is a great resource for quick tips and valuable insights. Please add it to your weekly reads. Aside from recommending Brian to any individual and business clients that need TAX and CPA advisement and professional solutions, Brian is a genuine business partner who listens and when you’re talking to him, you are the only thing that matters.
He sees what your situation is and comes up with a plan for your unique scenario- then follows through with it. Afterwards, he constantly follows-up and makes sure you understand everything that’s going on. I highly suggest you talk to Brian if you’re looking for new Tax advisement or just want another opinion.
