The problem is the practice rules. Those of us who obey them tie our hands leaving those who don't a free run at things. You just can't stop someone who is determined to be dishonest and who has access to clients' monies.

In France all 'avocats' monies have to be paid into a court administered bank account and an officer of the court must approve all withdrawals. Are we just as untrustworthy? It seems as if a significant minority is.
