From the supplier: The confidentiality of communications in a corporate setting can be protected through the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. Communications are considered confidential if they are made in confidence between an attorney and client concerning legal advice. The work product doctrine has two levels, products of the attorneys' labor and products of their opinion, both of which are protected but the opinion protection is stronger. Upjohn Co v. United States established a case-by-case standard of protection, overturning the control group theory in many states.
