Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

I do not have case law on it, but the rules of attorney client privilege are covered in the Texas Rules of Evidence and the Texas State Bar Rules.

My understanding of the rule is that even if a third party is paying the attorney, the attorney cannot give out information to that third party unless authorized by the client to do so.

Keep in mind that if you allowed that third party to sit in on your initial consultation or any other meetings with the attorney, you waived the attorney client privilege as to that person.
