Wähle eine oder mehr der folgenden:

  • The client is always right, I would act upon his instruction to maintain our professional relationship

  • Ignore the clients wishes - he should have known better than to ask me

  • Explain to the client that acting on his instruction would lead to illegal activity. If he still wishes to proceed then advise him that the contract with you will be terminated
