Attorney-Client Privilege - Pop Culture
Obviously fictional TV shows won’t get every legal detail correct.
I almost hate to use these 2 shows as an example, because aside from the glaring misrepresentation of establishing an attorney-client relationship and protected communications, these shows actually do a better-than-usual job of portraying law firm life.
However, handing an attorney a dollar or any denomination of money 💰 does absolutely NOTHING in terms of establishing a privileged relationship. It’s not a requirement to establish the relationship and benefit from the privilege.
Think about pro bono clients; aren’t their communications privileged? (Yes when the elements of privilege apply).
Also, establishing an attorney-client relationship does not make every conversation between that attorney and client privileged.
For a communication to be protected by attorney-client privilege, it must be:
-a communication between privileged parties / attorney and client;
-made in confidence (no 3rd parties present or in earshot);
-for the primary purpose of seeking legal advice from the lawyer.
Other discussions not related to legal advice are NOT protected.
I’d also be remiss not to mention the crime-fraud exception — something I’ve never heard Saul mention to a client and I’m an avid fan of the show — communications for the purpose of furthering of a crime or intended crime are NOT protected by #privilege, even if the #attorney wasn’t aware of the advice being sought for improper use.
Since the shows get so much right, I wanted to articulate the important parts that it didn’t.
*Many of you don’t know this but I used to have a pretty successful blog, “prime time crimes” or something along those lines where I wrote about broken laws in fiction tv shows. The writers of some of the shows were big fans & I really miss doing it and regret taking it down.

You know what they say when you need to freshen up the smell of your office? Better Call Saul! From StrangeWicks, the “Goodman” candle emanates a captivating fragrance profile where character and fragrance intertwine to create an unforgettable experience.
Delve into a world of intrigue with a blend of amber woods, oakmoss, vetiver, and galbanum, creating a rich and earthy foundation. The scent is beautifully complemented by vibrant top notes of citrusy bergamot and delicate violet petals, adding a touch of brightness and sophistication. As the aroma unfolds, base notes of vanilla and sheer musk bring a warm and inviting sensuality. 🕯️

@caemthe replied ; Me, his lawyer: he was just feeling a little silly that day your honor-
ㅤㅤ❝ Ah ~ ! What a noble profession is that of lawyers..... You have saved me, not from being framed over unnecessary judgment; but rather, you have saved the small pieces that make Sampo Koski's humble reputation . A little bit of something here.. a little bit of something there... We all have our bad days, don't you think my friend? But I digress-, this isn't about me right now, it is about your honorable deeds. You truly deserve my most sincere gratitude ~! I am at your mercy my knight in shining armor !❞
