It appears that the attorney believed that the 5th Amendment did not apply. That was his opinion. You always had the right to disagree and could have chosen not to answer.
Sometimes people believe they can invoke the 5th Amendment whenever they do not want to answer a question. It only applies if it implicates you in criminal conduct
