<strong>Professional</strong> Privilege<br />
It is trite law that communications between<br />
solicitors and their clients are privileged and,<br />
therefore, are inadmissible in evidence in any<br />
proceeding.<br />
The privilege extends to communications<br />
between a solicitor and his client which have the<br />
purpose of seeking or giving legal advice and<br />
communications between a solicitor and third<br />
parties or between the client and third parties<br />
which are made for the purposes of existing or<br />
contemplated legal proceedings.
