Bookkeeping for Law Firms

Legal professionals require absolute precision and strict regulatory compliance. A standard bookkeeper who treats a trust account like a regular operating account creates serious exposure for your firm. At Nighthawk Bookkeeping, we specialize in the rigorous financial standards required by the legal industry.

Trust Account Compliance We understand that client funds are a fiduciary liability, never firm revenue. We maintain strict segregation of client funds and execute detailed three way reconciliations for your IOLTA accounts every month.

Audit Ready Records Our trust accounting procedures are designed to produce reconciliations that withstand scrutiny. We keep your bank statements, trust ledger balances, and individual client ledgers perfectly aligned and documented.

Pristine Operating Accounts While we manage the complexities of your trust accounts, we also keep your general operating accounts spotless. From daily transaction categorization to month end close, your books remain perfectly balanced so you can practice law with total confidence.
