Linda and Karen, both paralegals for the same attorney in a small general practice office, are riding home from work together on the bus. During their ride, they discuss a client who was in the office that day seeking to file for divorce
The client, who works in their building, is someone whom they have known for a long time, and they are shocked. What they don't know is that the client's wife is sitting in the seat behind them. The client's wife learns of the divorce and successfully hides $200,000 from a bank account so that it cannot be located and divided up as part of the property settlement. Once the divorce is final, the client says to his wife, "You must have known that I was planning to divorce you or you wouldn't have been able to hide that money." Without admitting that she hid the money, the client's wife says, "If you're so upset about losing the $200,000, why don't you sue your attorney and those two big mouths who work for him and ride my bus?" Which of the following actions can the client take? a. Seek to have a disciplinary action brought against the attorney for violation of the rule of client confidentiality b. Bring a malpractice lawsuit against the attorney and his two paralegals c. Demand that the attorney pay him the $200,000 and fire his paralegals d. All of these choices are correct
