Frequently Asked Questions About Legal Malpractice Claims Involving Transactional Errors in New Jersey

FAQ: What type of transaction errors involving the lawyer’s trust account could subject the lawyer to discipline?

The New Jersey bar association takes lawyers’ obligations with respect to handling clients’ money and property extremely seriously. In many cases, the lawyer accepts a retainer fee and must deposit those funds into a trust account. As the lawyer performs work and incurs expenses, the lawyer is entitled to draw from the client’s funds in the trust account. Transactional errors that could create problems include:

-Drawing money from the wrong client’s trust account funds,
-Co-mingling the client funds with the lawyer’s own funds,
-Spending trust account funds that the lawyer has yet to earn,
-Inflating the cost of expenses the lawyer has incurred and withdrawing the wrong amount from the trust account.

It is generally mandatory to report the lawyer who committed the transactional error involving a client trust account. The lawyer may be subject to discipline and may be required to reimburse the client.
