Lawg for accountants

AI tax research for Australian accountants

Research the client question. Prepare the memo, letter or file note.

A client asks a tax question. You need the facts, the relevant authorities and a record another practitioner can follow. Lawg helps connect that research to a working draft, ready for your review.

In your work

Built around the questions in your practice

Start with a defined Australian tax question and the relevant period. Use the research to develop your position and record what still needs checking.

01

Scope a shareholder-loan question

Organise the arrangement, dates and missing facts before researching possible Division 7A issues.

Working output

A research brief with assumptions and follow-up questions.

02

Investigate a proposed asset sale

Explore the tax questions raised by the client's facts and inspect the available legislation, ATO materials and decisions.

03

Prepare the client explanation

How Lawg supports source review

Before you start

Questions from accountants

Check the fit for your work, then explore Lawg with a focused question.

Does Lawg replace my accounting software?

Lawg supports tax research, document analysis and drafting. It does not process transactions, maintain accounting ledgers or lodge tax returns.

How can I prepare a client letter?

Use the research as a starting point for a Client Letter draft, then edit the facts, reasoning and wording to suit the engagement. Check the source versions and complete circumstances before delivery.

What Australian tax material can I research?

Research available Australian legislation, ATO materials and selected decisions. Source availability varies. Check the relevant period, source versions and whether additional authorities are needed for the matter.

Check the facts, authorities and applicable source versions. All outputs require professional review before filing, client use or responding to the ATO. Lawg does not guarantee ATO acceptance or any audit outcome.

Before providing client or business information, check your authority and read Security & data handling, the Privacy Policy and Terms.
