Anybody knowing he's about to get law enforcement attention should backup, restore the non-sensitive files to a new disk, and leave the old disk with your lawyer (to avoid "obstruction of justice" charges over "destroying evidence"). LEOs are much more hesitant about smashing down lawyers doors and seizing privileged information.

They will rarely execute a search warrant on a lawyer's office, but they will serve the lawyer with a subpoena.

Assuming they know the lawyer has the drive. Just don't answer any questions with anything but "please direct all questions to my attorney".
