SEIGELFlorida Bar News, Sept. 10, 2008Quoted in an article on how the Department of Justice revises how itdeals with corporate probes. Seigel, a member of the Attorney-ClientPrivilege Task Force who dissented from its recommendations on theDOJ guidelines, praised the new policies and said they would avoidproblems that could arise from legislation on the matter.“I think the new guidelines are actually quite good. I think that thedepartment has listened to its critics . . . ,” he said. “It’s irrelevantwhether a company waives its attorney-client privilege, that’s not theissue. The important thing is a corporation wants to claim cooperation,the key is telling the prosecutor everything you know. Whether it’sprivileged or not is essentially irrelevant.”—Michael Seigel, Professor of LawMichelle S.
