About the Book

This Fourth Edition has been updated and revised and expanded including new or expanded coverage of the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. Many of the previous chapters have been completely revised and other chapters went through a comprehensive rewrite. New chapters deal with intellectual property, international transactions, and e-discovery. And a great feature of the book - you obtain full coverage of all topics in one single-volume.

This new edition is not merely a treatise on the subject; it is that and much more. Written for practitioners, it addresses the problems they face and offers solutions. Each chapter is written by authors with varied practices and offers the insights of the attorneys practicing in those areas.

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 it ever before. This new, single-volume focuses on topics like:
  • Confidentiality and its relationship to the Attorney-Client Privilege

  • Attorney-Client Privilege and work product in the e-discovery era

  • Attorney-Client Privilege and corporate communications

  • Communications between related corporations and the Attorney-Client privilege

  • The self-critical analysis privilege
Applying the Attorney-Client Privilege to investigations involving attorneys:
  • What is fair game in discovery?

  • Protecting the Attorney-Client Privilege during an internal investigation

  • Discovery of the non-testifying in-house expert assigned to litigation

  • Loss of Attorney-Client Privilege through inadvertent disclosure of privilege documents
Putting attorneys on the witness stand and their advise at issue:
  • The perils of selective waiver of privilege

  • Perspectives on the Attorney-Client Privilege and the Work-Product Doctrine

  • Attorney-Client Privilege and the Work-Product immunity in patent litigation

  • The joint defense privilege

  • Attorney-Client Privilege and the Work-Product Doctrine in environmental coverage litigation, and more
