Abstract
Two recent decisions of Brereton J in the New South Wales Supreme Court focus once again our attention on whether we can resist a subpoena to produce a client�s documents if it involves a former client against whom we are asserting a lien over the documents on the basis that the client has not paid outstanding legal costs.
