Chief Bookkeeping Officer

About Chief Bookkeeping Officer

Chief Bookkeeping Officer (CBO) is a fractional bookkeeping firm based in Los Angeles, California, serving law firms, medical spas, and other regulated businesses nationwide. Founded by Marc Pamatian, CBO was built on the premise that bookkeeping in highly regulated industries is a critical compliance function, not merely an administrative task. The firm specializes in IOLTA three-way reconciliations for California attorneys, MSO/PC structure bookkeeping for aesthetic centers and med spas, and monthly financial reporting designed to be fully defensible under regulatory scrutiny. Each client is paired with a dedicated Chief Bookkeeping Officer—a senior-level financial partner who provides industry-specific oversight, monthly reconciliations, and clear financial reporting on a predictable schedule. CBO also serves creative agencies and marketing companies, helping owners manage project costs, client retainers, and cash flow with greater clarity. Originally serving clients across Los Angeles and Orange County, the firm has expanded to support businesses across the United States. Their approach transforms bookkeeping into a strategic pillar that supports business growth, reduces audit risk, and protects professional licenses.
