Yes. Mexican law recognizes the notion of ACP, even though it does not use the denomination of ACP. The law uses expressions such as: “professional secret”, “classified/confidential/reserved communication”, “confidentiality duty”.
This protection extends to any information exchanged during these privileged communications, encompassing not only verbal discussions but also written correspondence, emails, text messages, and other forms of communication. The privilege belongs to the client, meaning they have the authority to waive or invoke it.
In New Mexico, the attorney-client privilege is a legal principle that protects the confidentiality of communications between attorneys and their clients. This privilege applies when the client is seeking legal advice and the attorney is providing that advice.
