Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The attorney-client privilege generally allows for confidentiality of communications between attorneys and their clients. However, most jurisdictions have an exception for threats of death or serious injury, meaning if a client tells an attorney they plan to harm someone, the attorney may have a duty to report it. The question implies that all listed states do not have an exemption for threats of death or serious injury, which is incorrect. Attorney-client privilege rules and their exceptions, including for threats of death or serious injury, can vary by state, but the question does not accurately reflect the specific laws of Texas, Montana, or Alabama. Therefore, without specific evidence to the contrary, it's reasonable to conclude that the statement applies to none of the choices provided, making D the correct answer.
