LEGAL PRACTICE ACT 2003 (NO. 64 OF 2003) - SECT 79

79 .         Professional obligations and privileges of legal practitioners who are partners or employees

        (1)         A legal practitioner who engages in legal practice as a partner or an employee of a multi-disciplinary partnership is not excused from compliance with the professional obligations of a legal practitioner, or any other obligations of a legal practitioner under any law, and does not lose the professional privileges of a legal practitioner.

        (2)         To avoid doubt, the law relating to client legal privilege (or other legal professional privilege) is not excluded or otherwise affected because the legal practitioner is engaging in legal practice as a partner or employee of a multi-disciplinary partnership.
