In preparation for taking Mr. Snodgrass as a client, and understanding that he owes the federal government a lot of money, Abbey's firm conducts a detailed credit check on Snodgrass. The results show that he owes a lot of money to Big Store, a major local company, from the purchase of equipment and that the debt is five years old. Is that information confidential, and why?
What will be an ideal response?
Yes, the information that Mr. Snodgrass owes a lot of money to Big Store from five years ago is confidential because it is possible that the information will become an issue later on “in the representation.” Since Abbey’s firm does not know what will be related to the representation until it ends it is a “safe rule” to say that every piece of information stated will “be somehow related to the representation.”
