Top of the world... and never ...
Scenario-

Attorney makes cash deposits to IOLTA... he is the sole signer and he himself made the deposits.

My question, is it 2 section A's? The IOLTA and HIM as an individual, and On own behalf for section B?

Or one section A on the IOLTA and all his info in section B?

Thanks for the help!

The old ruling that Retread cites has official FinCEN approval, because it has been republished on its website at http://www.fincen.gov/news_room/rp/rulings/html/fin-r1989-5.html

I wonder how successful banks have been at getting the client information from the attorney?

I imagine there are lots of paper CTRs with cover letters explaining that an attorney refused to provide client information.

I imagine a lot of them later provide the information after contact by law enforcement reminding them of the law.

Keep in mind, if that amount came from a single client, the attorney was required by law to file a form 8300. He has no beef about giving you the information because he has already disclosed the information himself. wink
