Her actions appear to be inconsistent with being a good lawyer.

Part (most?) of being a good lawyer is knowing when to shut up and when to tell your client to shut up.

In addition, there is some level of attorney/client privilege to consider. Quite often, two companies will have 4 sets of lawyers in the room for particularly sensitive things. Counsel for the companies and then counsel for the counsel. This ensures that what is discussed stays under attorney/client privilege.
