Fractional Controller for Law Firms
Financial clarity for your firm, so partners can focus on clients.
Between billable hours, trust accounts and uneven collections, a law firm’s numbers can be hard to see clearly. I give managing partners a dependable monthly close and reporting that shows what is really driving the firm’s results.
Challenges We Solve
Trust accounting pressure
Monthly three-way trust account reconciliations need to be done on time, every month. I help keep them organized and documented alongside your operating books.
Revenue that comes in waves
Contingency fees and large settlements make cash flow lumpy. A rolling cash forecast helps you plan payroll, hiring and distributions with confidence.
Hours billed versus cash collected
Realization and collection rates show where revenue leaks. You get a clear view by attorney and practice area, not just a total.
Partner questions you can answer
Partners want to know what the firm earned and what they can take out. Clean monthly statements make those conversations simpler.
What’s included
Strategic financial leadership without the cost of a full-time team member. Every engagement is shaped around your firm’s size, systems and goals.
