Monthly reporting for law offices with staff
Realization and collection, and the data on partner compensation, are the lines a firm with staff looks at in its monthly reporting.
Local taxes on law firms
A city income tax is a local tax on income earned by residents, on work done in the city, or on business profit, and it is separate from the federal and state returns.

How we help.
Monthly accounting and financial reporting for small law offices
Where the office already has a bookkeeper, the work is arranged around the books that person keeps. Brent works in the software you already use, or recommends a setup if you don’t have one.
The state’s trust account rules
Money a law firm holds for clients — retainers not yet earned, settlement proceeds, funds held for a transaction — is not the firm’s money. The attorney remains responsible for the trust account under the rules.
