Abstract

To sum up briefly, the book entitled “The Right to Counsel and the Protection of Attorney-Client Privilege in Criminal Proceedings. A Comparative View” should be a must-read for both researchers interested in the current issues relating to the right of counsel in criminal proceedings and practitioners of the judiciary. The research is elaborated on in an interesting and transparent manner. Also inspiring are the conclusions concerning the need for further action on the attorney-client privilege, especially in the sphere of “protection of work-product and electronic files and communications” (p. 71). It would be of scientific value to continue research in this area because of the need to create appropriate foundations for further approximation of the legal orders of EU Member States. From the perspective of the transfer of evidence between Member States, it would be helpful to work out common minimum standards for safeguarding the attorney-client privilege.
