Law practices at risk of losing client money, and their reputation
Warning to law practices to perform proper background checks on the non-legal staff they hire and provide ongoing supervision.
As a lawyer, you owe a duty of confidentiality to your clients not to disclose their confidential information. There are very limited exceptions to this general duty.
The duty of confidentiality is at the heart of the lawyer-client relationship. It is also fundamental to the effective operation of the justice system.
