Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording and organising of your business finances. It’s the foundation everything else sits on – your tax returns, your BAS, your cash flow decisions, your ability to actually know how your business is performing.
A good bookkeeper handles Transaction recordings reconciliation, accounts payable & receivable, bank & credit card reconciliation, payroll processing, month-end & year-end close and financial reporting.
Behind on books? Common, fixable, and we don’t lecture. Catch-up bookkeeping reconstructs your transactions from bank statements, supplier records and any digital traces — useful when an accountant has dropped the ball or you’ve been winging it on Excel.
We download bank statements, ATO portal data and any source documents you have, then code the transactions back chronologically. Most missing-records scenarios still produce 80-95% complete books — the gaps that remain are typically immaterial cash transactions.
Clean, accurate books are the foundation of confident business decisions and smooth tax
time.
Get a clear picture of your income and expenses. No surprises at year end—just clarity.
No last-minute scramble at lodgement time. Your books are ready when you need them.
Accurate financial data means you can make confident choices about spending, hiring, and growth.
Avoid the tax lodgement trap. Uncoded transactions and operating without live books means poor tax compliance. The fastest way for your business to fail is to ignore or deprioritise your books and have unknown tax liabilities.
We match every transaction to keep your books accurate and up to date with your bank statements.
All expenses are properly coded and categorised for BAS and tax purposes—done right the first time.
We track what you owe and what's owed to you, keeping your cashflow clear and organised.
Close your months and year with reconciled balance sheets and finalised income statements.
Plans start from $399/month – but every business is different. Your consultation includes a custom quote based on exactly what you need.

Bookkeeping is the day to day recording of transactions: income, expenses, invoices, and receipts. Accounting takes that data and turns it into something useful, like tax returns, financial reports, and strategic advice. Think of bookkeeping as keeping score and accounting as reading the scoreboard. Lawpath offers both, so everything stays connected.
Our accountants work with all major Australian platforms including Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks. Whatever you’re already using, we can plug straight in. If you haven’t chosen software yet, we can help you pick the right one for your business.
Absolutely. It’s one of the most common things we hear. Our accountants can reconstruct and clean up your books using bank statements, invoices, and ATO data, then get everything current so you’re ready for BAS and tax time. The sooner you start, the easier it is.
Yes. Bookkeeping keeps your records accurate and up to date, but an accountant interprets those records for tax planning, compliance, and business decisions. With Lawpath, you get access to both, so your books feed directly into expert accounting advice when you need it.
That depends on your business and how many transactions you process. Most small businesses work on a weekly or fortnightly basis, with a small portion on monthly. The more frequent you keep your books up to date the more informed you’ll be to use your business’ financial data to make key decsions around your business activities, strategy and spending. A Lawpath accountant can recommend the right frequency based on your volume and reporting needs.
Outsourced bookkeeping in Australia typically ranges from $300 to $1,500 per month depending on transaction volume and complexity. Lawpath’s bookkeeping starts at $399/month for businesses under 100 transactions, with custom pricing for higher volumes.
Most MYOB-to-Xero migrations use a conversion service to transfer your chart of accounts, transaction history (typically 2 years), GST positions and payroll data. Lawpath handles the conversion end-to-end — including opening balance reconciliation, GST rollover, and validating your first BAS lodgement on the new platform.
If you have under 30 transactions a month, decent software literacy and time on weekends — yes. The most common point where DIY bookkeeping breaks is around the second BAS or at tax time, when miscoded transactions snowball. A bookkeeper costs roughly the equivalent of 4–8 hours of your time per month.
