合法的;正当的;有正当理由的

It is not clear whether it means lawful or reasonable here. More context/clarification might help. 原文有一些问题...

=> You are entitled to have your legitimate objectives (objections?) respected by your lawyer.

Legitimate means "accepted by law, custom or common belief". legitimate 指"为法律,习俗及一般信仰所接受的" eg the legitimate government 合法政府 He claimed that bombing the town was a legitimate act of war. 他宣讲轰炸这座城镇施展郑重的正当行动. Her illness was a legitimate reason for her being absent from work. 她生病是没来上班的正当理由.

legitimate = 1 legal or correct 合法的;正当的 eg Her demand for compensation is perfectly legitimate. 她要求赔偿是完全正当的.2 reasonable 合理的 eg They had a legitimate reason for being late. 他们迟到是有正当理由的.
