"When should lawyers be required to reveal information that will hurt their chances in court?” For example, if you were the defense attorney in a hypothetical Martha Stewart insider trading case and you located a witness that could prove your client was guilty of this charge. Because the prosecution could not find this witness, they've decided to drop the case. Should you pass on the witness' new contact information or should you keep quiet and allow your client to go free even though she committed the crime? Who should the attorney prioritize - society or their client? What is the right thing to do legally?
Should Your Lawyer Prioritize You Or Society
