Law Technology Today From the ABA Legal Technology Resource Center
The end of the year can be a hectic time for many business owners. Sorting through the entire year’s financials, preparing the documents you’ll need to file your tax returns, there are a lot of accounting tasks that need to be completed before you can take some time off to enjoy the holidays with your family.
While it’s important to review and understand your law firm’s financials throughout the year, building in additional time now to get a grasp on your accounting will save you (and your accountant) major headaches down the road.
In 2017 Year-End Accounting Checklist & Tips, we’ll show you the step-by-step actions you need to take to close out your 2017 books. This includes reconciliations, reviewing trust balances, tasks for your accountant, and much more.
If you follow our step-by-step Year-End Accounting Checklist for Law Firms (downloadable during the webinar), we’ll also show you how to make sure you’re starting next year off right — with a practice management solution that does your accounting for you, including keeping audit-ready trust accounts.
