Synopsis

Solicitors' Accounts provides a user-friendly guide to a subject that often poses serious problems for students unfamiliar with the principles and practice of accounting. It provides comprehensive, up to date, coverage of all areas required by the Law Society for Business Accounts and Solicitors' Accounts on the Legal Practice Course, including full coverage of double entry book keeping, and final accounts of sole owners, partnerships, and companies. It also deals with the Solicitors' Accounts Rules and the practical application of these in Solicitors' Accounts, including property and probate transactions. There are a series of short answer questions on the operation of the Solicitors' Accounts Rules in the final chapter. The rewritten chapter on VAT has been extensively updated to make it more accessible. Each chapter starts with an overview of the areas to be covered.
