The attorney-client privilege in civil litigation : protecting and
defending confidentiality / edited by Vincent S. Walkowiak, Stephen M. McNabb,
Oscar Rey Rodriguez. 5th ed. Tort Trial & Insurance Practice Section,
American Bar Association, c2012. KF8959.A7A935
2012 Attorney-client privilege continues to be a complex issue. The need for confidential communication in the corporate setting is as great, if not greater, than ever before. This book covers a variety of important issues on this topic such as confidentiality and its relationship to the attorney-client privilege, hidden dangers for the exceptions to the attorney-client privilege, defining fair game in the e-discovery era, federal courts' application of the work-product doctrine, and loss of attorney-client privilege through inadvertent disclosure of privilege documents. |
