On October 9, 2025, our firm’s Markus Risinger presented oral arguments before the Arizona Supreme Court in Gelvin v. Gelvin, a case addressing an important question of attorney-client privilege.

The case concerns whether the attorney-client privilege extends to communications between an attorney and a third party, regardless of the purpose of those communications and irrespective of the client’s presence during, or participation in, those communications. This issue has significant implications for the scope of privilege protections in Arizona. The Court has taken the matter under advisement, and we await its decision.

We congratulate Markus on this professional milestone and commend his dedication to advancing his client’s interests before the state’s highest court!
