Greg Skiff wrote the article “Federal Rule of Evidence 502” for the New York State Bar Association’s Fall 2015 edition of the NY Litigator. Practitioners continue to overlook ethical obligations imposed by Rule 502 of the Federal Rules of Evidence which is designed to preserve attorney-client privilege and attorney work-product. Greg highlights that by disregarding Rule 502, attorneys put themselves at a disadvantage in litigation and may be in breach of their duties to protect client confidences. He also examines ethical considerations and recent court cases.
