I have been handling a number of small estates that were resolved fairly quickly in six months to a year. I have not been opening a separate estate account, but have been keeping the monies in my escrow/IOLTA account. I then make distribution when there is a family settlement agreement or if the court approves it. Am I doing anything wrong?
The answer is yes.
