My question relates to legal practice in the state of: Mass.
My husband and I are in the midst of a divorce. I haven't hired a lawyer yet, but he has, and I just read some letters between him and his lawyer that he left in the hallway, undoubtedly by mistake (he's in the process of moving out) that discuss strategy they're considering in going after me. I know the correspondence was private, but it really was left out in the open. I know I need to hire a lawyer asap, but I'm wondering what to do about this information. Can I tell my lawyer what I know? Or are there ethical concerns? Thanks in advance.
