Truer words were never spoken when it comes to an attorney’s client trust account. Under Rule of Professional Conduct 1.15, an attorney has a non-delegable duty to safeguard the attorney’s trust account. An attorney can (and probably should) employ a reliable bookkeeper and accountant to ensure invoices are sent out timely and the trust account is reconciled each month. However, the attorney is ultimately responsible for the trust account activity. It pays to know all the requirements for maintaining a proper client trust account.
