Expert Bookkeeping Services for Legal Professionals
Navigate the Complexities of Trust Accounting with Confidence

Trust accounting stands as one of the most scrutinized areas in legal practice. Mismanagement of these funds can lead to severe consequences, including disbarment. Recognizing the high stakes, many attorneys alter their business models to avoid trust accounting. However, this isn't always an option. At Papillon House, we specialize in impeccable trust account management, ensuring compliance and peace of mind.

Tailored Approach for Legal Professionals

We understand that math isn't every lawyer's strong suit. There’s a well-known saying in the legal community: if attorneys were good at math, they might have pursued a career in medicine instead. This can add an extra layer of anxiety to financial management, particularly in trust accounting. We never highlight these concerns outright to our clients, but this understanding shapes our approach to supporting you effectively.

Streamlined Reconciliation Processes

To mitigate the fear of errors, we implement rigorous 3-way reconciliations, ensuring that your CRM balances, accounting software, and bank accounts are perfectly aligned. In the digital age, many processes are automated, and although technology simplifies many aspects of reconciliation, it can also obscure the true nature of these processes. We emphasize traditional 3-way reconciliations in our communications, respecting traditional methods while integrating modern efficiencies.

Sensitive to Professional Boundaries

Concerns over confidentiality, potential dissatisfaction, and other risks make financial transparency within the firm a delicate issue. Whether you're a small two-person firm looking to grow, or a larger practice where the office manager juggles multiple roles, Papillon House provides the discreet, professional bookkeeping services needed to keep your firm's finances accurate and private.
