The question then arises as to the lawyer’s legal rights to a lawyer and most importantly the confidentially of his communication with his lawyer. The law is well established that everyone, including a lawyer, should not be denied the right to have a lawyer. The California law, however, is unclear in regards the lawyer’s right to have confidential
The Sixth amendment protects the accused upon the case against him. The Right to Counsel is given to everyone and this constitutional mandate adheres to the constitution. An accused may choose his own if his means permit him to do so. If not, however, and it is upon the court to appoint who shall represent him, the accused has no say of who will be appointed for him since what is contemplated by law is the essence of a competent lawyer’s presence. The right of self-representation may, of course, be opted upon refusal to receive the services of the one appointed by the court, but it shall still be in conformity with the set guidelines for the same right (Tomkovicz,
They allow the testator or testatrix to make such dispositions as he or she pleases without the details being made public, save only to the person who is bound to put into effect those wishes. Secret trusts fall into two categories: fully secret trusts and half-secret trusts. In a fully secret trust, property is given by will to a legatee absolutely without mention of any trust: the gift appears to be absolute and there is no trust on the face of the will (Thynn v Thynn (1684)).

Some of the main instances where the prosecution can seek an appeal or a reviewed. (p. 11) Even though we are being protected under the Fifth Amendment by the United States constitution, it may not give justice to those individuals. After doing this research on double jeopardy, I found that double jeopardy was established by the United States constitutional it come from Fifth Amendment. It protects individual against a second prosecution for the same crime, it also protects us multiple punishments by same crime.
Confidentiality means not sharing information about people without their knowledge and agreement. To maintain confidentiality you should: • Confirm the identity of anyone that is unknown to you. • Never discuss the client with anyone without the client’s permission. • Never leave confidential information where unauthorized persons may access and Use only secure routes to send information. • Always check who can hear you when verbally handing over confidential information.
As we all know, in all countries where democracy is present, citizens have the right of free speech, where authorities do not censor words and ideas and everyone has the right of expression. In theory there are no limits, but in practice there are. Do you know the case of Julian Assange?

This includes any verbal, written, telephonic, audio or video recorded information. Both ethical codes assert that the counselor and the clients should agree and set the limits of confidentiality. The counselors are also not permitted to share clients’ confidential information among themselves unless the client has given his or her consent. Both ethical codes also provide that records of the counseling proceedings should be kept in a secure location where they will not get into the wrong hands. One major contrast in the area of confidence is that; while the ACA ethical codes allow the counselor to immediately disclose client’s information on the issue of a subpoena, AACC ethical codes on the other hand provide that the counselor shall not disclose the information immediately but shall first give the client an opportunity to consult with his or her
Anything more, however, runs the risk of giving legal advice and constitutes the unauthorized practice of law. The close working relationship between lawyers and paralegals creates problems in this area. A client who is aware of the relationship between the paralegal and the lawyer may rely on statements by the paralegal just as if they came from the lawyer (http://www.netplaces.com/paralegal/ethics-and-professional-responsibility/unauthorized-practice-of-law.htm). The client does not differentiate between a paralegal who is offering her own opinion (improper) and a paralegal who is relaying advice from the attorney to the client (proper). To the client, it is all legal advice.
