When To Talk and Who To Speak With

Ideally, one would only speak about the facts of his or her case with another person that a privilege of confidentiality applies to; such as a spouse, an ecclesiastical leader, or an attorney. It is important to remember that any statements to anyone that a confidentiality privilege does not apply to can be used against them. If you only give information to your attorney, he or she can tell your story in a matter that it consistent with the theme of your defense.
