Bookkeeping for Century City Businesses
Bookkeeping, payroll, and advisory services for Century City law firms, entertainment companies, financial advisors, and professional practices. Senior-level accounting without the overhead.
Bookkeeping for Century City
Century City is a few blocks of high-rises with one of the densest concentrations of law firms, talent agencies, entertainment companies, and financial advisors anywhere in the country. Behind the big names on Avenue of the Stars and Century Park East sit hundreds of smaller operations: boutique law practices, management companies, wealth advisors, consultants, and medical practices that are sophisticated enough to need clean books but lean enough that a full-time controller doesn’t make sense.
That’s the gap we fill. We’re Pasadena bookkeepers working with businesses across LA County, and our founder spent 20 years in institutional real estate and construction accounting before launching the firm. You get senior-level process discipline at small business pricing, delivered remotely so you’re not paying Century City rent for your accounting.

Full-service payroll including tax deposits, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Salaried professionals, hourly staff, and owner compensation handled correctly so you’re not managing EDD deadlines yourself.

For firms that need more than transactional bookkeeping, we offer external controller services and fractional CFO support scoped to partner reporting, cash flow forecasting, and financial strategy.
Century City Businesses We Work With
Century City was built on the old Fox backlot, and the studio is still there, but the neighborhood’s identity today is professional services. Law firms occupy more square footage here than in any other part of Los Angeles. The agencies and management companies that run the entertainment business sit a few floors away. Private equity, wealth management, and family offices fill in the rest, along with the medical practices and restaurants that serve the daytime population.
We work with businesses across that range. What they share is real financial complexity under the surface, whether that’s client trust accounts, partner distributions, multi-entity structures, or income that arrives in large irregular chunks. The owners want their numbers right and want a bookkeeper who understands what the numbers mean, not someone who treats the books as data entry.
Law Firms
Law Firms
Boutique litigation, transactional, entertainment, and family law practices. Operating account bookkeeping, trust account reconciliation kept separate from firm funds, partner draw tracking, and financials ready for the CPA at year-end.
Entertainment and Talent
Entertainment and Talent
Management companies, production entities, and the loan-out LLCs used by actors, writers, directors, and producers. We handle the owner draw tracking, commission and residual income, and multi-entity structures common in the industry.
Financial and Professional Services
Financial and Professional Services
Wealth advisors, consultants, business managers, and small investment firms. Clean books, profitability by client or engagement where it matters, and reporting that holds up in front of partners, regulators, or lenders.
Medical Practices and Real Estate
Medical Practices and Real Estate
The physicians and specialists in the medical towers along Century Park East, and the property owners and investors who hold the office, retail, and residential real estate around them. Our founder’s background is real estate accounting, so investor and owner bookkeeping is squarely in our wheelhouse.
Common Questions
Do you have an office in Century City?
No. We're based in Old Town Pasadena and work remotely with clients across Los Angeles County. You get senior-level bookkeeping without paying for space on Avenue of the Stars that you'd rarely use for accounting anyway.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Full-service bookkeeping starts at $199 per month. Your rate depends on transaction volume and complexity. Century City businesses often run multiple entities, trust accounts, or partner-level reporting, so we quote a flat monthly rate after a short conversation about how the practice is structured.
Do you work with law firms?
Yes. Boutique and mid-sized firms are a natural fit. We handle operating account bookkeeping, keep client trust activity reconciled and separated from firm funds, track partner distributions, and produce financials your CPA can use for the firm and K-1s.
Do you work with entertainment industry businesses?
Yes. Management companies, production entities, and the loan-out LLCs used by actors, writers, directors, and producers. Multi-entity structures and irregular income are normal territory for us, and clean books matter because your CPA needs accurate records for distributions and returns.
My books are behind. Can you catch them up?
That's how many clients come to us. We do catch-up work to bring you current, then move into monthly service so the backlog doesn't rebuild.
