That Isn’t a Good Idea and I Can’t Help You With That” (Judgment Enforcement Issues for Trust and Estate Practitioners)
Attorneys risk disciplinary action, and the evidentiary privileges otherwise generally afforded to attorneys will not shelter communications, where the attorney assists in an effort to fraudulently transfer assets. This may be the result even when the attorney does not have a subjective intent to engage in crime or fraud. Trust and estate practitioners should be aware of these limitations and, possibly, adjust their procedures accordingly.
