I've encountered a situation that's left me unsure of how to proceed. Last week, a high-net-worth client began making subtle, yet unmistakable advances during our meetings. It started with seemingly innocent compliments but has escalated to attempts at physical contact. I've tried to be professional and redirect the conversations, but I'm concerned about losing the account if I address it directly. Have you dealt with clients crossing professional boundaries? How did you deal with it?

I'm so sorry you had to go through this. I have not experienced this before, but have you brought this to your HR depts or manager's notice? I'm sure they would take the necessary actions and maybe even terminate the client relationship if necessary. You should not have to suffer through this for the sake of keeping the client happy, especially when they don't care to respect you.
