Let's say opposing counsel fucks up and threatens your client directly after they know your client is represented. Any way to use that as leverage without running afoul of extortion laws or other guidelines?

your client can use it as leverage, but you can't. i suppose you could coach your client to use this as leverage, but that itself could fuck you up too.

could you "hint" to your client?
