I'm Peter Fider, CPA, EA, and I keep trust accounts reconciled every month and ready for a bar review.

Mid-October is a great checkpoint for law firms to review their IOLTA reconciliation process. Is every client trust account being reconciled to the penny every single month? Are your three-way reconciliations current and documented? For attorneys the consequences of trust accounting errors go far beyond financial penalties. Your license and your reputation depend on getting this right every time. 📋

A settlement check isn't just the client's money. Attorney fees, liens, and other expenses may all come out of it before anything is distributed.

The rule:
✅ Let the funds clear
✅ Document everything
✅ Disburse per the settlement statement

Every dollar needs a clear destination and the right client attached to it.

Your IOLTA bank balance matches. So everything's fine… right?

Not always.

Clean trust accounting needs three numbers to agree:
✅ IOLTA bank balance
✅ Total trust liability
✅ Each client ledger balance

The bank can match while a client ledger is off, and that tends to surface months later, when it's harder to fix.

A three-way reconciliation checks it client by client.

Not sure yours would pass? Let's take a look.

October is here and for attorneys and law firms managing IOLTA accounts Q4 is when trust accounting compliance becomes most critical. Year-end audits, bar association reviews, and increased transaction volume all converge in the final quarter. Make sure your client trust accounts are fully reconciled, your records are audit-ready, and your bookkeeping is current before the pressure of year-end arrives. ⚖️

September is almost done and Q4 is here. For law firms, the final quarter of 2026 means year-end trust account audits, increased billing activity, and the pressure to close the year in full financial and ethical compliance. Make sure your IOLTA records are spotless, your bookkeeping is current, and your firm is positioned to finish 2026 with complete confidence in every number behind it. 🌟

Trust accounts don't fail overnight — they drift, one small shortcut at a time.
Let's make sure yours never does.

My client got audited and lost. Every expense was real, but nobody kept the receipts.

As a CPA, I see this too often. A bank statement proves money moved, not what you bought. Snap a photo at the counter and note what it was for. 30 seconds now beats 30 hours under audit.

💬 Comment TAX for the 5 things every receipt needs to survive an audit.
