Program Number: 2160INS
Program Date: 12/06/2011
Description
While a lawyer’s actions and communications are generally thought to be privileged, there are some situations where that may not be the case. In this Ethics program, part of our series geared especially for insurance companies and their in-house counsel, Gene Weisberg explores attorney/client and attorney work product privilege issues involving insurance company-employed lawyers, including when lawyers are acting in a claims handling capacity and issues relating to whether pre-litigation and first party fraud investigation are protected.
