    I assume it wasn't functioning as legal counsel?

    It is exempt from such privilege if the conversation lead to criminal conduct--as an example, fraudulent use of funds.

    In general what you said is an inaccurate representation of the current state of the law. The attorney-client privilege is quite complex and I'm not going to take 3 hours here to go through 100 Years of Juris prudence. Suffice it to say if there is no imminent fear of violence or danger to another individual an attorney shall not ever share information with anyone that they gained through discussions with their client. Now if the client is determined to lie before a Tribunal the lawyer must caution the client that they shall not lie and that if they do lie that the attorney will immediately withdraw. If the client is still determined to tell a falsehood to a court of law then the attorney must notify the court that they can no longer represent their client but may never still reveal the fact that their client was going to lie. So in these instances attorneys are put in a very bad position. The bottom line is the two main exceptions are if the attorney believes violence or injury could occur based on conversations that occurred during an attorney client session or if the attorney believes that the client is going to lie to a Tribunal. Now as I said in the beginning that is the general law and I wouldn't dare to try to say I know anything about some weird statute or professional responsibility rule in New York or Connecticut or California or Flat Rock Arkansas. But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night
