Carthay Businesses We Work With
Most business owners we work with started doing their own books and eventually hit a wall. Tax prep became expensive because records were disorganized. Financial decisions got made on gut feel instead of real numbers. The books turned into a burden rather than a tool for running the business.
We work with professional services firms, medical practices, local restaurants, and creative businesses doing $100K to several million in revenue. If you need reliable bookkeeping but hiring full-time staff doesn’t make sense yet, that’s exactly the gap we fill.

Consulting firms, marketing agencies, and business coaches. We track project profitability, manage contractor payments, and provide the financial clarity that professional service firms need to make informed decisions about growth.
Law Firms

Law firm bookkeeping including IOLTA trust account management and reconciliation. We integrate Clio with QuickBooks and help attorneys maintain California State Bar compliance for trust accounting.
Medical Practices
Medical Practices
Dental offices, chiropractic clinics, mental health practices, and therapy providers. We manage patient billing, insurance receivables, and the revenue timing complexities that make healthcare accounting different from other service businesses.
Restaurants and Retail
Restaurants and Retail
Local restaurants, cafés, and retail shops. We handle inventory tracking, tip reporting, California sales tax compliance, and the high-volume transaction management that food and retail businesses require.
