It is called advising the client. Doesn't mean you believe it. You tell the client the options and the risks, and they have to make the decision on how to proceed. My clients like me to say no, so they can blame Legal, but most times what they are looking to do is not per se illegal (although this was, and we have very strict rules about discussion of prices), but may have the following risks, and not doing it will have the risk that you won't make your goal. The executive has to acknowledge the risks and go forward.
