Rule 2.3
Evaluation For Use By Third Persons
(a) A lawyer may
provide an evaluation of a matter affecting a client for the use of
someone other than the client if the lawyer
reasonably believes that
making the evaluation is compatible with other aspects of the lawyer's
relationship with the client.
(b) When the lawyer
knows
or
reasonably should know that the evaluation is likely to affect
the client's interests materially and adversely, the lawyer shall not
provide the evaluation unless the client gives informed consent.
(c) Except as disclosure is authorized in connection with a
report of an evaluation,
information relating to the evaluation is otherwise protected by
Rule 1.6.
