The reason attorney work product cannot be shared is that it contains discussions about the attorney's strategy and legal reasoning as he or she prepares the case. While evidence and information is objective, attorney work product is subjective and provides the key reasoning and logic, as well as attorney-client confidential information that should never be shared, with others. Providing this would give the other side every last thought and belief an attorney and his or her client have. While discovery provides clues about what a strategy may be and what an attorney may argue, attorney work product reveals far too much about everything a client and his or her attorney have been thinking about and look at. It goes beyond what discovery is meant to do and essentially helps the other side learn exactly how to defeat the opponent.

If a wife goes to an attorney for a consultation and decides not to use that attorney can the husband use that attorney?

can or can't the attorney would more than likely deem it an expression of a conflict of interest. why use the attorney that may have become or is partial with your wife since she gave the attorney information that may or may not be true. it is like the jury hearing something, then the judge tells them to discard it.AnswerYes you can. If the wife has not retained that attorney there is no reason that you cannot use him/her as long as you feel comfortable that the attorney will represent you to the best of his or her ability.
