- Internal corporate investigations: the waiver of attorney-client privilege and work-product protection through voluntary disclosures to the government.
Twelfth Survey of White Collar Crime The courts should construe the waiver of attorney-client privilege and the work-product doctrine narrowly in the corporate investigation and disclosure context to balance the need for disclosure with protections that will actually promote disclosure. The majority approach construes waiver broadly in stating that information disclosed to a government agency is available to third-party litigants. Final internal investigation reports should be considered a waiver of privilege in such information, but nondisclosed opinion work-product should continue to be protected by privilege.

- Attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine in the corporate setting.
The confidentiality of communications in a corporate setting can be protected through the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. Communications are considered confidential if they are made in confidence between an attorney and client concerning legal advice. The work product doctrine has two levels, products of the attorneys' labor and products of their opinion, both of which are protected but the opinion protection is stronger. Upjohn Co v. United States established a case-by-case standard of protection, overturning the control group theory in many states.
