Most bookkeepers won't touch IOLTA accounts — and the ones who try often get it wrong. Zeno Books LLC handles law firm bookkeeping the right way: three-way reconciliation every month, client ledgers maintained, and Clio integration if you use it.
No guessing, no partial work. Every engagement covers the full picture — operating accounts, trust accounts, and reporting.
Three-way reconciliation every month — bank statement, QuickBooks balance, and client ledger totals all agree before the month closes. Individual client ledgers maintained. Earned and unearned funds properly separated.
Core SpecialtyOperating account reconciled, every transaction categorized, bank feeds connected. Your books are current when you need them — not scrambled at tax time.
Monthly P&L and balance sheet in plain language. Know what the firm earned, what it spent, and where it stands — without decoding a spreadsheet.
If you use Clio for matter management, I work with it directly. Trust records and matter billing stay in sync — no manual reconciling between systems.
Your accountant gets direct access to clean, organized books. Tax preparation and year-end reviews stop being a fire drill — the records are ready when they need them.
Inheriting a mess from a prior bookkeeper — or starting fresh? I'll configure QuickBooks correctly for a law firm before building anything on top of it.
The recordkeeping requirements are specific. The stakes — bar discipline, malpractice exposure, client harm — are real. Most bookkeepers don't specialize in this. Zeno Books LLC does.
Every month, all three must agree before the books close.
Every client's funds tracked individually — not pooled and guessed.
Common trust account errors that audits catch:
From first conversation to clean books — typically within two weeks.
30 minutes. Tell me about your practice, your trust accounts, and your current setup. I'll tell you honestly if I can help.
A flat-rate quote based on your actual situation — number of matters, transaction volume, cleanup needed. No vague packages.
I get access to QuickBooks and Clio, connect bank feeds, and address any historical issues before we go live.
Reconciled books, maintained ledgers, and a monthly report — delivered every month without you chasing anyone.
Zeno Books LLC is a solo practice. When you hire me, you work with me — not a rotating associate who has to relearn your matter structure every quarter. I know your accounts because I'm the one doing them every month.
I hold a BA in Accounting and an MBA, with 12+ years of accounting management experience. I work with law firms specifically because trust accounting requires expertise that most bookkeepers don't have — and the consequences of getting it wrong are serious.
I work with Clio directly, so your matter billing and trust records stay synchronized. If you have a question, you hear back from me — not a support inbox.
