Professional privilege remains intact when parties volunteer evidence, unless they question legal advisers on otherwise protected matters.
Section 128 preserves professional privilege where a party gives evidence in a suit, as this does not constitute consent to disclose communications protected under section 126. When a party calls a barrister, pleader, attorney or vakil as a witness, consent extends only to matters on which that legal professional is questioned and which would otherwise remain undisclosable.
