A quick definition of joint-defense privilege:

Joint-defense privilege is a legal term that means when two or more people are accused of a crime, they can work together with their lawyers to defend themselves. This means they can share information and strategies without having to tell anyone else. It's like having a secret club where everyone helps each other out. This privilege also applies to civil cases where multiple parties are being sued. It's important because it allows people to work together to protect themselves without fear of their conversations being used against them in court.

A more thorough explanation:

Joint-defense privilege is a legal term that refers to the right of two or more defendants in a criminal case to share information and strategies with each other and their lawyers without fear of that information being used against them in court. This privilege is similar to attorney-client privilege, but it applies to multiple defendants who are working together to defend themselves.

For example, if two people are accused of committing a crime together, they may choose to work together to build a defense. They can share information and discuss strategies with each other and their lawyers without worrying that anything they say will be used against them in court. This allows them to work together more effectively and increase their chances of a successful defense.
