Is it ethical and "kosher" for lawyers to accept credit cards from their clients? Yes, absolutely - several thousand attorneys & law firms across the United States accept credit cards as a form of payment. To verify that statement, one can refer to the American Bar Association's official stance on the issue. In Formal Opinion 338 (Nov. 6, 1974), the ABA condoned the practice of accepting credit cards for legal fees. Further, most law practice management advisors (employed by state bars) will recommend that attorneys accept credit cards as a way to improve, simplify and in some cases, increase their revenues. What about commingling funds, trust accounts and Bar regulations regarding how a law firm handles a client's money? Accept by Phone can easily be configured to deposit funds according to how your law firm needs to operate, as prescribed by your local Bar (and your own preferences). We have numerous attorneys using Accept by Phone who needed to be able to ensure the seperation of funds between a trust account and their firm's operating account, and they are more than satisfied with the service in every way.
