Did you know thousands of lawyers lose their license each year because of IOLTA mismanagement? On top of that, studies show the average lawyer is spending 2.5 hours per day on billable work. We don’t want you to become one of those lawyers, so tune in to learn how you can protect and scale your business through specialized tax services.

In this episode of Cut to the Chase, Gregg is joined by Jayden Doyé, a best-selling author, international speaker, Certified CPA, and President of Prestige Accounting & Consulting.

After seeing a huge gap in the market, Jayden realized how desperately law firms need specialized accounting services… including you! Lawyers have unique needs in tax planning, deductions, profitability, billing, IOLTA management, and so much more.

Key Actionable Takeaways for Law Firms:

- Tax planning benefits lawyers by helping them save money on taxes through strategies like hiring family members, medical reimbursement plans, identifying which vehicles have the greatest tax advantages, and much more. There are tons of ways to save money on taxes, you just have to talk to a professional.

- Most of Jaydens clients are benefitting from QBI deductions, so don’t forget to ask your accountant if you’re eligible!

- When you get your tax return, don’t just sign it and move on. Review it with your tax professional and make sure the numbers in your accounting software reflect in your business tax return. You also want to have an explanation of the numbers on your personal tax return.

- In order to reach the next level in your business, you have to have a plan. At Raise the Bar Live, Jayden is creating a space for law firm owners to mastermind with other like-minded lawyers and create a plan that they can implement in the next quarter. Plus, the conference is tax deductible!
