SERVICES
Payroll & HR
Most payroll companies charge you a fee to run your payroll on a set schedule, requiring you to do most of the work by entering/updating employee information and coding payrolls. At Abacus Advisors, we think you have better things to do with your time – namely working on behalf of your clients.
We take the work out of payroll by providing you a single point of contact for all things payroll. Gone are the days of logging into a portal and dealing with employee changes to their withholding amounts. We do all of that for you.
All of this comes with the service level you would expect from Abacus Advisors. You deal with the law; we’ll deal with the business.

Why Should You Outsource?
Ability to focus on your core business
Outsourcing repetitive and administrative tasks frees up time and capital (both human and financial), allowing you to invest in the growth of your enterprise. We add value by freeing you up to generate more revenue or allowing you to spend additional time out of the office.
Gain access to experts
Most of our clients are not bookkeepers, HR professionals, financial or managerial accountants. By engaging Abacus, our clients are able to leverage experts in those fields to manage functions in which attorneys are generally not proficient
Operating more efficiently
By off-loading the tasks that our clients do not excel at, many have realized significant economic benefit (we can scale the functions we perform). Our clients have swapped the distraction of managing people for the benefit of working with a true business partner.
Our staff of accountants, payroll professionals and seasoned business executives has over 200 years of collective experience. We have helped numerous firms bolster their revenue stream, reduce their costs, and operate more efficiently. Let us do the same for you.
Client Testimonials
“I started working with Abacus when I broke off from my old firm and was practicing solo. They did an awesome job for me then – COST EFFECTIVE, ACCURATE AND ATTENTIVE. When Fried Rogers Goldberg formed, Abacus grew with us. We redefined their role so that we could continue to leverage their expertise. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ABACUS to any small firm.”
“We began working with Abacus Advisors 3 years ago, and our initial engagement with them was to perform a financial audit and report. Through the reporting and audit performed by Abacus we were better able to determine where and how to focus our financial efforts. We have enhanced our engagement level with Abacus over the years, and our firm has greatly benefited as a result.”
“I engaged Abacus Advisors when I started my firm in 2015 for bookkeeping services. Our relationship has continued to grow over time to include payroll, human resources, and consulting services. Abacus Advisors consistently provides excellent service and support, and I greatly value the contribution they make to my growing firm.”
“Abacus provides our firm a value-added service that is essential to our success. When I refer an advisor to a colleague, I take a risk that they won’t have the same positive experience. After many years of suggesting to multiple new law firms that they should use Abacus Advisors for their bookkeeping, everyone that took my advice is very satisfied.”
“I started working with Abacus Advisors when I ventured back into solo practice. Abacus has significantly contributed to the growth and increased production at my firm by assisting with payroll, bookkeeping,, and more. Each assigned advisor takes the health and success of your business personally and I can't imagine running my business without them.”
“Abacus is the best in the bookkeeping business, and it’s not a close question. Our firm has worked with Abacus for years and just about every other thoughtful plaintiffs’ lawyer I know does the same. Abacus has earned my loyalty and the loyalty of many others the old-fashioned way—good work, good communication, honesty, and fair pricing. Just a great company and I’m glad they’re here in Georgia”
