| A lawyer's duty to protect a client's confidences (which includes both information protected by the attorney-client privilege and by the work product doctrine) justifies an arrangement under which an unrepresented expert witness retained by the lawyer agrees to: (1) advise the lawyer if the expert receives a document request or subpoena seeking the production of protected information that the lawyer has given the expert witness; and (2) delay responding to such discovery until the court can rule on a motion to quash or a motion for a protective order. |
