How much money is distributed by IOLTA?
Because the amount the program collects varies depending on interest rates, grant distribution has ranged from a high accumulation of over $22 million in 2008 to a low distribution of grants of slightly more than $6 million in 2016.
More than 95 percent of the funds received are distributed in grants to legal services programs. All administrative costs are paid out of the funds received; no attorney fees or other State Bar income is used. Over the course of its 25-year history, the State Bar has used less than 5 percent of the funds received to administer the program.
