Abstract:
"From 2011-2021, Alex Murdaugh allegedly stole millions and embezzled cash from an IOLTA general trust account held by a Hampton SC law firm. How did that get undetected for so long? What opportunities were missed to disclose wrongdoing? How does an attorney rack up 99 counts of embezzlement, fraud and other financial crimes against his firm and his clients without getting caught sooner?" Kathy E. Pope shares her experience in the ethics and prudent management of IOLTA trust accounts.
