Ask HN: If an attorney sends me private documents by email

If it involves medical info and the attorney is contracted by a covered entity, maybe:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.hhs.gov&#x2F;hipaa&#x2F;for-professionals&#x2F;covered-entities&#x2F;index.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.hhs.gov&#x2F;hipaa&#x2F;for-professionals&#x2F;covered-entities...</a>

Who is paying the attorney?<p>Whose private information is in the documents?

Need a little more detail. Why is that a problem?

Insufficient context
