| A lawyer acted as scrivener in representing one corporation making an agreement with another corporation. Now that the arrangement has fallen apart, the lawyer may represent the corporate client, because the other corporation was never a client. [Superseded in LEO 1803, which held that the existence of an attorney client relationship depends on the lawyer's action rather than a mere title, and holding that the attorney client relationship would arise between prisoners and lawyers practicing at a state prison if the lawyers did anything more than simply typing up what the prisoner wrote]. |
