Alan Dershowitz, who defended OJ
A LIBERAL thing to do
and still thinks he is innocent?
Dershowitz defended OJ and is bound by Attorney-Client privilege. Lawyers do not come out after their clients" acquittals and say they're guilty, you dumb ass.
I thought you kook-ass liberals were all on OJ's side, anyway, so what do YOU care if he "thinks" OJ is innocent, in PUBLIC only?
Dershowitz knows the score... you don't... that's why YOU are only a Usenet lawyer.
Where in the FUCK do you get your information? Is it ALWAYS your personal opinion?
=====
If a defendant says he is not guilty, and refuses to plead guilty, can the lawyer nonetheless tell the jury (or anyone else), "My client is guilty"?
Ruth B. Ginsburg, joined by five other members of the Court, said no.
How can you be sure this attorney can be trusted?
Duty of confidentiality
It's important to understand, here, that the attorney-client privilege is technically a rule of evidence. (Attorney's can't be compelled to testify against their clients or submit documents to the courts as evidence against their clients.)
A related ethical rule is the concept of an attorney's Duty of Confidentiality. ASIDE FROM THE EVIDENTIAL RULE OF ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE, ATTORNEY'S ARE ALSO ETHICALLY BOUND TO A DUTY OF CONFIDENTIALITY.
(pretty sure, telling the public what you THINK, is an ethics violation)
In the United States, each state has it's own code of conduct based off the American Bar Association's Model Rules.
ABA Model Rule 1.6 specifically states:
(a) A lawyer shall not reveal information relating to the representation of a client unless the client gives informed consent, the disclosure is impliedly authorized in order to carry out the representation or the disclosure is permitted by paragraph (b).
Rule 1.6 by American Bar Association
In England and Wales, this same concept is known as Legal Professional Privilege, and carries the same weight as it does in the U.S. and with almost identical implications.
The privilege has long been recognized by English common law and The Law Society of the U.K. addresses it by stating:
The Legal Professional Privilege from Law Society UK
LPP is a PRIVILEGE AGAINST DISCLOSURE, ensuring clients know that certain documents and information provided to lawyers cannot be disclosed at all. It recognizes the client's fundamental human right to be candid with his legal adviser, without fear of later disclosure to his prejudice. It is an absolute right and cannot be overridden by any other interest.
Law Society UK
In most confidentiality sharing situations, a non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement should do the trick and will ease your mind. Obliging the Recipient of your secrets to complete confidentiality, a non-disclosure agreement will protect you from potential snitches or thieves of trade secrets, and give you legal remedies in the unfortunate case of a breach.
However, your relationship with your attorney is no normal business relationship and A SIGNED NON-DISCLOSURE IS MOST LIKELY UNNECESSARY, not to mention redundant.
Attorney-Client privilege
For starters, all licensed attorneys are bound by what is known as attorney- client privilege: a long-standing and fundamental rule that automatically preserves the confidentiality of all communications between an attorney and their client.
Under this rule, attorney's are strictly bound to the preservation and protection of any and all confidential information disclosed to them by their client, either orally or in writing, and the exceptions to this rule are few and far between.
