Services

The whole desk, handled.

Tax, books, entities, accounting, trust, and QuickBooks. Flat, hourly, monthly, or the project — priced once we've seen the file, then we get on with it.

Taxes

Returns are the last step, not the product. We plan through the year so filing season is a confirmation, not a surprise — personal returns, business returns, property tax questions, and the cleanup that has to happen before any of it is honest.

  • Personal and business tax returns
  • Planning that actually changes the next quarter
  • Sales tax returns and audit support
  • 1099 and W-2 preparation

Bookkeeping

We keep the file current: bank and card reconciliations, payables, receivables, and a cash picture you can read without a translator. The point is a business that can make a decision on a Tuesday.

  • Monthly reconciliations
  • Accounts payable and receivable
  • Cash position you can act on
  • Clean history before tax season, not during it

Entity set-up

Formation is cheap to do and expensive to undo. We help owners choose and stand up the entity, then connect the unglamorous pieces: banking, licenses, and a chart of accounts that matches how the company actually earns.

  • LLC set-up and preparation
  • Bank, investment, and credit-line openings
  • Online banking and license applications
  • A chart of accounts that fits the work

Accounting

Once the books are true, we use them. Financial reporting, budgets, cash-flow projections, and the specialty reports operators actually ask for — affiliate commissions, merchant fees, construction draws.

  • Financial reporting and review
  • Budgets and cash-flow projections
  • Specialty and management reports
  • A straight answer when the numbers look off

IOLTA trust

Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts do not forgive sloppy books. We manage IOLTA activity so client funds, firm funds, and the bank stay in agreement — and so a bar inquiry is a file you can hand over, not a week you lose.

  • Trust activity recorded as it happens
  • Client ledgers kept separate from operating
  • Reconciliations that can be explained
  • A file built for compliance, not for hope

Training

Some owners want the desk back. Some want their own team to stop breaking the file. We train on QuickBooks — setup, cleanup, and the daily motions — until the person in the chair can run it without us narrating.

  • One-on-one owner training
  • Team sessions on the live file
  • Setup that matches the workflow
  • Cleanup before the lessons, so you are not memorizing errors

Rates

Flat, hourly, monthly, and project. The number follows the scope, how long it will take, how much history has to be reconciled, and whether the work is on site or virtual. Ask for an estimate — the first conversation is complimentary.

Payroll is usually a flat rate, often 30–40% under a typical outsourced processor. Taxes set to pay themselves. Direct deposit when you want it.
