Should You Tell Your Defense Attorney Everything?
Yes, it would help if you told your defense attorney everything.
Attorney-client privilege is a legal concept that protects communications between clients and their defense attorneys from being disclosed to anyone else.
This means that your criminal attorney cannot be forced to testify about anything you tell them; they cannot share your information with anyone else without your permission.
The more details they have, the better they can represent you. If you withhold information from your attorney, it could jeopardize your criminal case.
Here are some of the benefits of being honest with your criminal defense attorney:
- Your attorney can give you the best possible advice and representation.
- Your attorney will be able to build a stronger defense case for you.
- You will more likely get a favorable outcome in your criminal case.
There are a few exceptions to attorney-client privilege, but they are very narrow. For example, an attorney may be required to disclose information if they believe you are planning to commit crimes or harm yourself or someone else.
