For over 25 years our V&R Associates has been working off a simple philosophy; we take care of your accounting needs so you can focus on growing your business. 

About the Company

V&R Associates is a family owned business. The founders were Viviane and Robert Hagopian who established the company in 1996.

Viviane is the principal accountant. Prior to launching her company, she had previously worked in the corporate industry. To name a few, she had various accounting positions at Sebastian International, the Sweet Factory, and McDonalds.

When she moved to San Diego with her spouse Robert, 25+ years ago, she wanted to launch her own accounting firm while beginning a family. Robert helped to start the firm.

The business was built on the idea of providing tailored and flexible services to fit the needs of each client -because no clients are the same. This philosophy has stayed throughout the years and serves as our main market distinguisher to why our clients are so loyal.

In 2019, Viviane’s daughter Thalia joined the business full-time to further company growth.

On January 1st, 2024 V&R Associates became incorporated; full owners: Viviane and Thalia Hagopian.

To this day, the company is primarily led by mother and daughter; remaining within the family roots.

By serving as a partner to help you reach your goals; we will handle the accounting so you can focus on better things in life.
