Both civil and criminal cases involve the disclosure of very private and sometimes embarrassing information. This is something that may make many clients balk at the thought of seeing an attorney because of the fear of having their private information out in public. Thankfully, the legal principle of attorney-client privilege protects in confidence what you tell your lawyer, as long as certain criteria are met. It is important that there be privacy between a client and his or her attorney as this will make for a productive working or professional relationship which will then help your attorney provide you with the best outcome legally. If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, you have every right to file a legal claim in order to recover compensation for your injuries, and we’re here to help with that.

In order for attorney-client privilege to be in effect, the following must exist:

1. The attorney must be licensed
2. The attorney must be operating professionally while engaging with you
3. You must be seeking legal and not any other form of advice at that particular moment
4. Your expectation is that the conversation was strictly confidential

It is important that clients understand that not even the court can compel your attorney to reveal something you told them in confidence. However, there are exceptions to the rule: your lawyer may reveal information about a crime if you confess to the same, and if you post information on social media and then tell your lawyer about the same, the attorney-client privilege becomes void. Lastly, should you send an email using a work email which for the most part is monitored, the attorney-client privilege will also not apply. In fact, all forms of communication between you and your attorney must be done in a discreet manner to preserve said privilege, so meeting your lawyer at a coffee shop to talk about your case may put you out of this legal protection.
