Well, that kind of erodes Cohen's contention that he's a lawyer. After all, one of his three clients just disowned him. No lawyer, no privilege?

(62,444 posts)Every now and then I run into someone who thinks that money needs to change hands in order for the attorney-client privilege to attach.
Hannity must be one of those people.
Simple answer - no, an exchange of money is not required for privilege to attach.

He's not just a criminal lawyer, he's a criminal. lawyer.

(2,434 posts)try to get info out of him, only you drink too much and reveal something. Quickly you hand him $10 and say "you're my lawyer too!" Very insulting to the lawyer, but the kid did hire Susan Sarandon in "The Client" for $1 right???
You just can't make this shit up!
