How To Establish An Attorney-Client Relationship

An attorney-client relationship is established when an attorney agrees to consult with you, agrees to provide advice to you, or agrees to represent you. Merely sending a message (e-mail or "snailmail") to an attorney will not create an attorney-client relationship.

An attorney-client relationship must be established to obtain the protection of the attorney-client privilege: a client's right to insist that the communications between attorney and client remain confidential.
