Evidence would be required for prosecution and defence - the courts would have to hear arguments for and against opening the records (plus I believe going after a lawyer's records require a higher level of due diligence and proof - it appears in the US at least) before ruling to allow them opened in court. I think it was only the third client was revealed in court - the other 2 may have been previously known for paying women to stay quiet (Trump and senior RNC guy), and the 3rd alleged "client" was revealed in court. Apparently he only had 3 clients last year?
