Privilege
provides special protection that exempts certain documents and other forms of
communication from having to be disclosed in legal proceedings. Its protection
is powerful, but it can be easily lost if the privileged information is
handled incorrectly. This guide has been created to provide basic information
about privilege in Canadian law and suggest ways to protect it. Our lawyers
are happy to provide you with legal advice particular to your
circumstances.
