The recommended way lot a financial institution to respond to a request from a law...

Financial institutions are required by law to maintain records and documentation of customer transactions and to provide this information to law enforcement agencies upon request. However, financial institutions should also have policies and procedures in place to ensure that they comply with legal and regulatory requirements and protect customer privacy. Providing protected documents that are privileged under attorney-client privilege or freezing an account immediately may not be the appropriate response and may expose the financial institution to legal or reputational risks.
