Bookkeeping for Pico-Union
We provide small business bookkeeping in Los Angeles for businesses throughout Pico-Union. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work, and the financial support you need without hiring someone full-time.
Pico-Union is full of family businesses that have served the neighborhood for years. We work with the owners who run those shops and restaurants, handling the books so they can focus on customers instead of QuickBooks.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Transactions categorized, bank accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get financial statements that show where your business actually stands without spending your weekends on data entry.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Books behind? We clean up months or years of backlog, fix errors, and get you current. Most Pico-Union businesses we work with started exactly this way. No judgment, just results.
Payroll

We process paychecks, handle tax withholdings, file quarterly reports, and produce year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid on time. You stop worrying about payroll deadlines and California compliance.
Sales Tax Compliance
Sales Tax Compliance
California sales tax is complicated enough without trying to track it yourself. We calculate what you owe, file returns on time, and keep your business out of trouble with the state.
Pico-Union Businesses We Work With
The neighborhood has a lot of small businesses packed along Pico Boulevard, Venice Boulevard, and the side streets in between. Restaurants and cafés serving the community. Retail shops that have been in the same family for decades. Service businesses running appointments from morning to night.
We work with business owners doing $100K to a few million in revenue. Big enough to need real bookkeeping. Not big enough to justify a full-time accountant on staff. That gap is exactly where we help.
