For an engagement letter to be binding, there must be agreement to the terms on both sides. The engagement letter is drafted and, in most cases, signed by the firm, therefore there is clear evidence of the agreement of the contents of the letter on the firm's side.
The directive or engagement letter may be an item that is discovered by opposing counsel. It may contain instructions to the expert. Under current case decisions, any information that is relied upon by the expert when formulating his or her opinion is a discoverable item, most certainly during court proceedings.
As the name suggests, an engagement letter is a binding contract that sets the record straight for any business relationship. Much like a handshake, this letter sets the stage, defining the professional tango between attorney and client, ensuring both parties are in perfect sync throughout the legal journey.
For an engagement letter to be valid, it should be reviewed and signed by both the lawyer and the client.
