<p class="MsoNormal">A bit off topic I realize, but I was curious if anyone has done the legwork to figure out how a law firm might set itself up properly for something like Zelle. Specifically, for a small firm like mine, things like wire fees start to add
up quickly and I think even realtors experience mild sticker shock when they realize that wires are not free. I also understand that no lender is likely to agree to fund a loan or receive proceeds by such a method, but I was specifically thinking more about
earnest money. Frankly, it’s become a 50/50 shot on whether or not UPS etc. is going to lose a envelope being sent our way and I am grasping for alternatives.<o:p></o:p></p>
