It’s not illegal for Tracy to ask, but normally a person involved in a client’s financial affairs (lawyer, banker, broker, financial advisor, accountant, whatever) would be, minimally, reluctant to answer questions from any third party without first clearing it with the client. Also, unclear exactly what this person’s function is. Blemish on what’s otherwise been a good story.
