IOLTA 101: Ethically Handling Your Trust Account to Avoid Disciplinary

Date:
Wednesday May 1, 2024
Time: 11 a.m. - Noon
Credits: 1.0 EP
This course does NOT fulfill the requirement of Rule 17-204 NMRA to once every three years attend a CLE course on the topic of client trust account procedures and maintenance, unless the course is specifically approved by the New Mexico Disciplinary Board as required by Paragraph C of Rule 17-204 NMRA.

IOLTA account mismanagement is one of the most common reasons attorneys find themselves in disciplinary hot water. In most cases, the attorney has never been trained how to handle a trust account, or what the best practices are for handling one. In this program, attendees will learn about the relevant Rules of Professional Conduct, and how they can use best practices to account for all client and other funds in their IOLTA account.
