Well based on your construction contract you can file a civil case against him for breach of said contract. However, civil cases take a long time and is quite expensive. Also, if there is evidence of fraud or violation of other special law like failure to secure PCAB licenses you can also look at that option. Nonetheless, all of these options would require you to secure the services of a lawyer which may be quite expensensive. Quote Link to comment

As a rule no. Because of lawyer-client privilege. Unless the client wants to commit a future crime and the lawyer's assistance is sought to further said crime. Quote Link to comment

The new case naman may involve the prev client of the atty or the atty knows private personal info of the client. Baka hanapin lang sya ng party to testify. Pued po ba? Quote Link to comment

No. Unfortunately, this still involves attorney-client privilege. It might also result in a conflict of interest. Even though the lawyer is no longer retained as counsel by his former client, he cannot divulge information he obtained while he was a lawyer for said client. This would be unethical and would defeat the purpose of the privilege mentioned. Ultimately, people will no longer trust lawyers with confidential information. Also it would be a violation of Code of Professional Responsibility and Accountability. Edited yesterday at 12:21 AM by Aries0818 Quote Link to comment

You can opt to file coercion or threats depends on what transpired during the incident however you need to act fast and have a barangay conciliation and secure a certificate to file action from the barangay since the prescriptive period for these kinds of felonies have a short time before they are considered prescribed. Otherwise, stated mabilis mapaso yung kaso. Quote Link to comment
