Post: My lawyer violated the attorney-client privilege and my righ

Posted by J. Easlet on 1/22/07
My attorney violated my right to privacy by breaking his oath or ethics or whatever pertaining to the attorney- client privilege. He blabbed information pertaining to my defense in a lawsuit to the attorney on the other side. I've had to warn him previously about being too 'chummy' with the oposition, but this time he gave up vital information that the other attorney used by taking it to the judge overseeing the case. I face censure or possibly might be tried for a felony as a result. I feel that all of my rights to privacy have been violated. Is the rule of law breaking down in the US? People will abandon the idea of going to attorneys and will begin taking matters into their own hands if they do not feel that they can trust their own counsel.
