Who We Help

Every industry has its own bookkeeping blind spots. Here's what we watch for in yours.

  • Dental Practices
    A clear picture of what insurance actually pays vs. what was billed, with unpaid claims tracked by insurance company.

  • Law Practices
    Client trust account records kept accurate and reconciled every month, in line with what the bar association requires.

  • Contractors & Trades
    Job costing by project, L&I hours-worked reporting, and subcontractor 1099 tracking done right.

  • Real Estate Investors - Profit and loss tracked separately for each property, with mortgage payments, security deposits, and short-term vs. long-term rental taxes handled correctly.

  • Home Services
    Job costing, prepaid seasonal contracts, and correct handling of taxable vs. non-taxable services.

  • Health & Wellness
    Session packages and memberships tracked correctly as clients use them - not counted as income all at once when sold.

  • Spas & Salons
    Retail product sales, service income, and booth-renter payments kept separate, so your sales tax is always calculated correctly.
