Talk:Attorney–client privilege

message: what about a billing statement to a school distri t for legal fees?  is this privileged?
:Probably depends on local law.  I'd consult a local attorney.  Tempshill 00:28, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

message: If anyone has any insight on my question, it would be greatly appreciated. My husband and I are entering into a legal proceding.  We are afraid that he may have some health problems that may interfere with getting his immigration papers completed and that some things on his medical exam may actually prevent him from obtaining his US green card.  We would like to discuss these issues with our lawyer but we are afraid he will not keep them confidential.  Is anything you discuss with your lawyer in the state of CA regarding immigration protected under the Attorney Client Privilege?
Thanks,

thread_title:  Attorney Client Privilege 

message: Why does the search term 'legal professional privilege' redirect here, which deals with 'attorney-client privilege' under US law? 'Legal professional privilege' is a general term for all common law jurisdictions (which, believe it or not, includes the US.) I have contributed the article on 'legal professional privilege (England & Wales)', but it seems to me that the 'commonwealth' link actually functions as a general description of the concept in all common law jurisdictions. Thus, the primary result page should be what is now the 'commonwealth' page, with the US, English and Australian pages leading off from that.
Otherwise, the matter seems like US chauvenism - which is odd, since English law invented the concept in the first place!

thread_title:  Redirecting here 

message: I have made the term 'legal professional privilege' redirect to Legal Professional Privilege (Common Law) which is a general treatment of this concepts - which is common to all common law countries, including the US. The US is included (as is the England & Wales, Australia and Canada) in a summarised form in the Common law overview. Please could whoever is best-placed make a better summary (at the moment it is just a cut-and-paste from the this Attorney-client page) in the Legal Professional Privilege (Common Law) article?

thread_title:  Changes made 

message: There's a popular house music artist by the name of "Attorney Client Privilege" (yeah, odd name). The group has also recently hit the "Promo Only" dance track listings in March 2008. Should I create a entirely new article named something like "Attorney Client Privilege (artist)"? — ThreeDee912 (talk) 18:46, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

message: First and second bullets are, I believe, wrong.  If you think they are correct, please add a citation.   The third bullet actually isn't about the privilege at all, but rather the lawyer's duty to maintain confidences (which is broader than the privilege in all states, not just California). In any event, they shouldn't be in the introduction.  --Sjsilverman (talk) 12:30, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
