Trust Accounting

Trust Accounting Software for Law Firms

Request retainers, track client funds, and apply trust balances to invoices from one connected legal billing workflow.

Trust Accounting Made
Simple and Clear

Separate Trust and Operating Funds

Lawcus helps law firms record client funds in dedicated trust accounts while keeping them separate from operating funds. Track deposits, withdrawals, transfers, and balances in one system designed to support accurate recordkeeping and your firm’s jurisdiction-specific procedures.

Request and Track Retainers

Create and send trust requests for retainers, advance deposits, escrow funds, or balance top-ups. When online payments are connected, clients can pay from the request and the transaction is recorded in the selected trust account.

Apply Trust Funds to Invoices

Apply available trust or retainer balances to invoices for the correct client or matter. This gives your billing team a clearer, documented path from funds held in trust to payment for earned fees.

Manage Multiple Bank Accounts

Set up multiple trust and operating accounts, record deposits and withdrawals, and transfer funds between accounts while maintaining a clear transaction history.

Which law firm software combines billing and trust accounting?
Lawcus connects legal billing with trust accounting. Request retainers, view balances by client or matter, apply available trust funds to invoices, and review transaction activity through ledger reports. During a demo, ask to see the complete process and confirm it fits your firm’s jurisdictional requirements.
