#Testimonials from Clients

  • Through the years that I've known John Christian and his beautiful family he gained my utmost respect and deep admiration, for he is the epitome of all that is good... a son, brother, husband, father and a friend. An upright and honest man whose smile and sense of humor captivate not just his pretty wife Cez but all. I wish him and his family all the best. Former US President Abraham Lincoln once said" Almost all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power" to this I truly say that Christian can measure up with flying colors.

  • We moved over to JBS-CPA for more than a year now. As the business became busier it was a relief to get continued support on the burden of bookkeeping, VAT, CIS and annual accounts to the safe hands of John and his team. Their rapid response and flexible help straightened us out very quickly with all extensive expertise in different areas including specialist taxation and solid back office support. We particularly value their pro-active style of suggesting ideas and solutions regarding the establishment and accounting of our business partners. John and his team have proven to be very efficient and most of all very reliable in what they do. It’s refreshing to find a partner that not only offer a personal service, but that is extremely efficient in advising international companies in the Philippines. Whether it’s tax advice, VAT returns, annual accounts, invoicing or one of the myriad of day-to-day questions we need answered, every time it’s given in a very friendly, helpful and personalized way. They use easy to understand manner and explanation of the responsibilities and legal obligations of running a company, always including references to the law. They are also helping with legal advice, so our Partners are aware how to start new business in the Philippines, and their support in this process is invaluable. Local, professional, knowledgeable, flexible, friendly – and above all – quick! I have been delighted with the attentive and proficient service they provide and I would (and have frequently) thoroughly recommended JBS-CPA to both individuals and businesses.”

  • I knew him almost 10 years and I would like to say he is one of the best consultant for accounting, tax, and legal in the Philippines. Not just by his wide range of knowledge, by his sincere attitude towards client needs, it brings happiness when I work with him. Also, if he says “yes, it can be” then it can be done definitely, he is humble but what he says is worth to trust. I am glad to hear he starts his office and, even it is not big, I am sure his quality is international level and I can recommend him to those international company.
