Running a legal practice creates financial and compliance complexity that standard accounting tools and general bookkeepers aren't built for. We are.

Client Trust Account Risk

Commingling client funds with firm operating funds is a compliance risk no firm can afford. We maintain strict segregation and reconcile every trust transaction with precision.

Matter-wise profitability tracking for law firms

Without accurate matter-wise cost tracking, you don't know which engagements are actually profitable. We allocate every hour, disbursement, and recovery so your real margins are clear.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about legal accounting? Find answers here.

Law firms deal with client trust accounts that must remain strictly segregated, matter-wise cost and time tracking, disbursement recovery, retainer drawdowns, and partner profit-sharing arrangements. Standard accounting tools and generalist bookkeepers often miss these nuances. Wearezo's team specialises in exactly these challenges.

We work with solo practitioners, partnership firms, litigation chambers, and corporate legal practices. We integrate your practice management and billing data with your accounting software (Zoho Books, QuickBooks, Xero, or Tally) and reconcile everything into one clean ledger.

We manage all GST and TDS compliance for your firm — including reverse charge mechanism applicability, GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, TDS deduction on partner payouts and vendor disbursements, and quarterly filing support. Your books are always audit-ready and compliant with the latest regulations.

Yes. Strict segregation of client trust funds from firm operating funds is at the core of legal compliance. We record every deposit, drawdown, and disbursement against the relevant matter — and reconcile balances regularly so your trust accounts are always accurate and audit-ready.

We work with your firm's agreed profit-sharing structure — whether equal, seniority-based, or origination-based — and compute partner shares, drawings, and year-end distributions transparently, with full supporting calculations for every partner.

Most legal clients are fully onboarded within one week. After a short discovery call, we agree on scope and pricing, get access to your practice management and accounting software, and begin managing your books immediately — with zero disruption to client work.
