In a world where international transactions and business deals are
becoming more sophisticated, the lawyer-client relationship is key
in moderating the accuracy, transparency and legality of these
transactions. In this paper I will highlight the evolution of the
lawyer-client relationship including explaining the shift in power
of the relationship between lawyers and clients. In addition, I
will give a special attention to the lawyer's duty of
confidentiality and highlight the impact of this duty on the notion
of conflict of interest and it is the failure to maintain these two
issues which form a part of lawyers' professional rules of conduct
which may lead to corporate corruption. This paper will provide a
comparative overview of the duty of confidentiality and the lawyer
client regulations in the USA and Egypt and their attempt to shun
corporate fraud and application thereof. In this way, the lawyers'
ability to comply with professional responsibility rules and the
importance thereof to avoid corporate corruption will be
highlighted.
