Law firm accounting services

Trust accounting, month end close, and cleanup for US law firms, and how I keep every number provable.

What I handle

What I handle for law firms:

  • Trust (IOLTA) accounting and 3 way reconciliationmonthly
  • Client trust ledgers, disbursements, settlement payoutsper matter
  • Month end close and financial reporting3 to 5 days
  • Bank and credit card reconciliationstied to statement
  • Case cost tracking and billing supportFilevine, Clio
  • AP and bill payRamp
  • QuickBooks cleanup and catch upone time project

How I work

Every month, a law firm's trust account has to pass one check. Three separate records must show the same balance.

Trust 3 way checkMonth end
Bank statement balance✓ agrees
Trust account in the books✓ agrees
Sum of every client ledger✓ agrees

No client ledger below zero. Any gap gets explained and fixed in the same month.

TIED
  • Every reconciliation ties out to the bank statement before I call it done.
  • A second review pass on every close before it reaches you.
  • Async updates by email or shared docs, so you're never chasing me.

In short: a close is a set of proofs, not a date on the calendar.

If your trust account hasn't been reconciled in a while, or your close keeps slipping, message me with what you're seeing.
