Whenever my ex-husband (an accountant) has given two weeks notice himself, the company has had him leave immediately with two weeks paid time just because of the increased risk of being in the books, I guess.
I think that's pretty standard for financial services for layoffs or resignation, especially if you're going to a competing company.

My question, as Ksigkid noted, was more about law firms, where in some cases you're dealing with the same clients for years.
