Originally published by Muze Development.

When we consider the attorney-client privilege, we often think of the confidential and protected relationship between an attorney and client that exists to facilitate the free flow of information and effective legal representation. When cases involve businesses, litigation can involve complex issues relating to the client’s body of work, sometimes making the client the best subject-matter expert in the dispute. Based on a recent decision from the Supreme Court of Texas (the “Court”), attorneys are now assured that the attorney-client privilege is not waived when their clients are also their expert witnesses.
