The attorney may limit their response to matters to which they have given substantive attention in the form of legal consultation or representation. This is because they are only required to disclose information that they have direct knowledge of through their legal work with the client. They are not required to disclose general information about litigations or claims that they have not been specifically involved in. Additionally, they are not required to disclose potential losses to the client unless they have confirmed knowledge of such losses through their legal work.
