Lawyers must be held to the same laws as everyone else, they don't get a pass just because they're lawyers. Look back at the good old days of the Mafia and all the lawyers they had on the payroll. If a lawyer commits a crime, if a lawyer helps a client commit a crime, or if a lawyer helps a client cover up a crime - the attorney client privilege is moot.
Lawyers are "officers of the court", and are obligated to uphold the law.
