Nice. I'm actually looking for answers, but I guess I would ask for written permission from the employee whose information is being requested.
Since it is an Attorney, also I would ask if it relates to a legal proceeding.
Anywhere close?

I would say you are in the ball park. I'm going to PM a link to this thread to several members who will give you some good responses.
I would think there is a company policy about this too, so you would need to know that.

At the library where I worked, we could not give out employee or patron info to anyone, not even police or attorneys without a court order, and then we had to defer to the library director to get involved with that part of it.

That could be the "steps" they are looking for. This is for a government HR job, which might have similar policies to your library. Thanks. I've been looking for the correct response on the internet all day without success.
Sorry for the typos, on my phone.

And the correct procedure was drummed into our heads at many staff meetings. The policy was in print and we all had a copy. We couldn't even disclose library info (overdues, books checked out, fine amounts) to another family member.
Employee records were in a locked file cabinet, and medical records were in a different locked cabinet. To find out specific patron info, there was a higher password and only a few employees had it.

So you are applying for a job and were asked a question you can't answer. So you want us to answer it. Do we get the job instead?
The answer is you tell the attorney to get a subpoena is he does not have one. You don't release employee info unless compelled by a valid court order.

Assuming that's the correct response, and I get the job, do you accept headhunter fees instead?
If you're answer is wrong, 15% of nothing is still nothing.

I was an HR Assistant Superintendent and this type of question would only be asked on someone applying to work in my office. What job are you applying for in this situation? The first thing I would do is asked the lawyer if he has written permission from the person in question. If notin the absence of a court order, he would get no information
