Blood relatives se utiliza también, pero se refiere más a parientes (quizá no tan cercanos como los hermanos). aunque tampoco está mal.

Opinion No.: 2001-07
(Inquiry No.): 4683
Topics: The circumstances under which \"confidences\" and \"secrets\" of clients are to be revealed.
Digest: Where, prior to the commencement of any court proceedings, the attorneys (\"the Firm\"), client and client\'s group sever the professional relationship because they intend to pursue an illegal course of action, what is the obligation of the Firm with respect to information disclosed during the course of such representation, which information is \"confidential\" and/or \"secret,\" and to whom, if anyone, is the Firm mandated to disclose such information.

Code Provisions: DR 4-101 (C)
DR 1-102
DR 7-102 (A) and (B)(2)

Facts Presented: Client and client\'s whole blood siblings met with and retained the Firm to handle the administration of the estate of the sole surviving parent of the client and client\'s whole blood siblings\'. The client and client\'s whole blood siblings were distributees of the decedent, who had no surviving spouse. The decedent died intestate. Client, by agreement, with the whole blood siblings was to be the administrator. During the course of the Firm\'s investigation, client and client\'s siblings of the whole blood admitted that there was another sibling of the halfblood who had been adopted by decedent\'s spouse. The Firm correctly advised client and client\'s whole blood siblings that the half-blood sibling (identified as a son) was a distributee and entitled to a distributive share of the decedent\'s estate, unless such son was willing to or had renounced or waived his right to share in the estate of the decedent Client and client\'s whole blood siblings all took the position that the half-blood son was not to share in the decedent\'s estate, and that the proceedings to be instituted in Surrogate\'s Court were to omit him as a distributee; further, all of them were in accord and were not going to disclose the existence of this distributee in the petition for letters of administration or to the court.

Notwithstanding the Firm\'s attempt to dissuade them from this course of action, and the Firm\'s advice to them of both the criminal and civil penalties, they remained adamant in their position. As a result the Firm withdrew. Subsequently, the Firm received a letter from client directing the Firm not to disclose any information.

Apparently, the name, address and other relevant information regarding the distributee of the half-blood necessary to an administration petition in Surrogate\'s Court had been disclosed to the Firm. Consideration of the ethical and legal issues
relevant to the rights and remedies of this distributee if the estate was distributed as proposed by the client and client\'s group is not germane to this discussion. The Firm properly withdrew from the case.

natural siblings


Explanation:
"natural siblings" is the term of art in American law. One may specify if necessary between siblings of "full blood" or "half blood" (i.e. half-brothers where only one parent is shared in common).
