Answer to Question 1

The client should be notified as soon as the check is received. The entire amount must be deposited in a separate escrow account designated for client funds. Jack's firm may then disburse the fees and costs out of this account. The balance of settlement amount is then paid to the client. The client should also be provided with a statement showing exactly what fees and expenses were paid out of the settlement amount.
