IOLTA Checking Account

IOLTA Checking Account

An Interest on Lawyers Trust Account (IOLTA) is an interest-earning trust account that is specifically used to hold money belonging to an attorney’s clients. Typical uses of an IOLTA account are for retainers, settlements, or court fees.

An IOLTA account is a type of checking account specifically designed for attorneys to hold client funds keeping them separate from any other business funds. 

The interest earned on these accounts is used to fund legal services for low-income individuals and families. This program ensures that even small amounts of client funds can provide access to justice for those who otherwise wouldn't be able to afford it.
