I am divorcing. I have consulted with an attorney and paid him fees. But I have decided not having him represent me in my case. Can he disclose what I told him to my wife Can he represent her?

If you had paid any fees, he is under the lawyer-client rule. He can not represent your spouse because of conflict of interest. OtherIt does not make a sintilla of diffierence if somebody has paid or not. Other words: pay has almost nothing to do with lawyer-client confidentality to the point of declining representation. It was a really bad ethical question* , and you, in my opinon, should address to your State Bar, the private club for lawyers who do this thing as in being responsible to the law of the particular state, and the US of Americal law. Lawyers work here too and they take their jobs seriously, as a general rule.The only thing I'm talking about here is paying: that has almost nothing to do with legal oblilgations when lawyers get there and the question is client confidentality.* it was badly asked. That's why it is bad; great question and great issue for lawyers, but it was really badly asked.
