Automate Trust Account Reconciliation for Law Firms

Reduce manual work. Eliminate missing statements. Stay audit-ready.
LedgerDocs helps law firms simplify trust account reconciliation by automatically fetching monthly bank statements and transaction data so your records are always complete, accurate, and ready for audit or review.

● No more chasing clients
● No more missing statements
● No more month-end delays

Why Law Firms Use LedgerDocs

Law firms managing trust (IOLTA) accounts must reconcile client funds regularly to maintain compliance and avoid audit issues. The problem is not reconciliation itself — it’s getting complete, accurate bank statements on time. LedgerDocs solves this by:

● Automatically fetching monthly bank statements
● Centralizing trust and operating account documents
● Keeping historical records organized and searchable
● Supporting reconciliation workflows with clean exports

Trust Account Reconciliation Made Easier

Traditional trust account reconciliation is slow because firms rely on, client-sent statements, manual bank logins, scattered PDF records and missing transaction history.

With LedgerDocs, firms streamline the process by ensuring bank statements are always available when reconciliation begins.

This helps support:

● three-way trust account reconciliation
● month-end trust balancing
● audit preparation
● compliance reporting

Audit-Ready Record Keeping

Law firms are frequently required to provide historical trust records during audits. LedgerDocs ensures:

● Bank statements are stored securely
● Documents are searchable and organized
● Historical records are accessible instantly
● No more scrambling during audits or reviews

Secure, Seamless Bank Integration

Connect your client trust accounts and operating accounts without ever asking for sensitive banking credentials. Your clients simply authorize the connection, and statements begin arriving automatically—every month.

Here’s How It Works:

1. Clients connect their bank accounts securely

  • No sharing of login details
  • Fully encrypted and compliant

2. LedgerDocs automatically fetches:

  • Monthly bank statement PDFs
