# confidential information

Information related to a client representation that a firm must protect from unauthorized disclosure or access.

Classify information before it enters a workflow or tool. Limit access by role, use secure channels, and document how a vendor handles data. ABA Model Rule 1.6 says lawyers must make reasonable efforts to prevent inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure. Woven Legal’s FAQ identifies privileged and confidential information as a common question when setting up support.
