Bookkeeping for professional services
Law firms, consultancies and design practices need accurate WIP, billing and expense tracking — not a bookkeeper who treats every business the same.
Books built for fee-based businesses
Professional services firms live on billable time, client trust and clean reporting. Maree handles the bookkeeping side — from tracking work in progress and client billing through to payroll for support staff and partners' distributions — so you always know where the practice stands.
- Work-in-progress (WIP) & client billing support
- Trust account reconciliation assistance
- Professional & clerical award payroll
- Expense & disbursement tracking
- BAS, GST & PAYG lodgement
Trust accounting needs accuracy
Legal and some professional practices operate trust accounts with strict reconciliation requirements. While Maree is not a legal accountant, she works carefully with trust ledger reconciliations, ensuring deposits and disbursements align with your records — and keeps the general bookkeeping, BAS and payroll running smoothly alongside.
For multi-partner firms, clear expense allocation and regular reporting mean fewer surprises at year-end and less work for your external accountant.
