"They had a fiduciary responsibility to their clients to keep settlement funds in separate trust accounts."
Are those trust accounts required to be actual separate bank accounts? Or is a single physical bank account sufficient but having ledger entries that separate out into different GL accounts acceptable? Many companies have a single primary bank account, but the books have separate GL accounts for marketing, product development, manufacturing, payroll, etc.
