No. The attorney-client privilege is limited to confidential communications between the lawyer and his client. The relationship between the lawyer and his expert witness is governed only by contract.

Im married what if you dont want to testify against your husband can you go to jail?

It would depend on the laws of your state and the crime committed by your husband...in some states yes you could go to jail for not testifying against your husband... Marital privilege laws exist at the state level as well as the federal level, and also vary from state to state.... The Supreme Court has recognized two privileges that arise from the marital relationship. The first permits a witness to refuse to testify against his or her spouse. This is the testimonial privilege. The witness spouse alone holds the privilege and may choose to waive it... The second privilege, called the marital communications privilege, provides that communications between the spouses, privately made, are generally assumed to have been intended to be confidential, and hence they are privileged . . . . Federal law recognizes exceptions to marital privilege such as where one spouse is charged with a crime or tort against the person or property of the other spouse or against a child" of either...In such a case marital privilege may not be invoked and you must testify.... Most states also have a statute stating that if one spouse is the victim of abuse by the other spouse, the victim's testimony can be compelled and spousal privilege cannot be asserted....
