Earlier this year I posted about a PA Supreme Court decision (Nationwide v. Fleming) that essentially ruled the attorney-client privilege in PA is a one-way street, protecting only communications from client to attorney. In Nationwide, only 4 of the 7 justices participated. Yesterday the highest court in Pennsylvania heard argument in Gillard v. AIG, where the full court will revisit this critical issue. A slew of amici filers including the Philadelphia County, Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) and Pennsylvania Bar Associations have weighed in this time around, all in support of a broader application of the privilege that would protect all communications between attorney and client (with some common exceptions) -- the way it should be. Here's hoping the Pennsylvania Supreme Court gets it right this time.
