Privilege
Points is a weekly e-mail alert provided to
clients of McGuireWoods. It reports on recent
cases (focusing on federal cases and noteworthy
state decisions) dealing with the attorney-client
privilege and the work product doctrine,
explains how the new decisions fit into or alter
existing doctrines, and provides very practical
suggestions for helping you protect your
client's privileged communications and work
product. Privilege and
work product issues permeate every lawyer's
practice—transactional lawyers must help their
clients properly create (and not accidentally
waive) these important protections, and
litigators must assert, defend and/or challenge
the protections. There is no area of the law
that is as important to a broad cross-section of
lawyers. The author of the McGuire Woods
Privilege Points is
Tom Spahn, a commercial litigator who
practices in our Tysons office. Tom lectures and
writes widely on the attorney-client privilege
and work product doctrine.
