The Cashroom Ltd exists to cost effectively deal with the day to day administration of a law firm’s finance function, ensure compliance with the Solicitor’s Accounts Rules, and provide firms with management information and Management Accounts. We provide the time and the information allowing solicitors to focus on their business.

 

Our legal cashiering service is delivered remotely by teams of qualified cashiers, working in our offices. We use our client’s own practice management system whatever that system may be (there is no need to change system), logging on remotely to run their finance function, as if we were in the room next door. The data and postings all remain on the client’s own system. Our client firms have specific key contacts within The Cashroom who very much work as their own team.

 

We also provide an outsourced management accounting service delivering management accounts and management information to law firms quickly and economically, often to firms who could not afford to employ a full time accountant. More importantly, we work with clients to analyse that information, helping them understand their firm’s finances more clearly by delivering clear packs of information showing trends and performance pictorially and with commentary.
