Is it UNETHICAL to not pay a client collected money?
So here is an interesting question. Let’s say you have some knucklehead attorney who receives regular payments from a client’s debtors (for money owed to client). And he keeps the payment without remitting to his client ANY portion of the payments. Its doubtful that payments were even held in a TRUST ACCOUNT.
- Is this legal?
- Is this ethical?
If Attorney Kyle Hanson of Hanson Law Group did that, would it be Unethical or Illegal? Hmm – inquiring minds are asking those questions.
