Frequently Asked Questions
How long should law firms keep case files and client records?
Retention requirements vary by jurisdiction, practice area, and record type. Law firms should establish a retention schedule that accounts for applicable bar rules, client agreements, and the specific requirements of each matter. Record Storage Systems can help firms organize and securely store closed files until they’re eligible for destruction.
Is a law firm required to keep client files after a case closes?
In many jurisdictions, law firms have ongoing obligations to retain certain client and matter records after a case closes. Requirements can vary by record type and jurisdiction, so firms should maintain a documented retention schedule. Record Storage Systems can securely store closed files, provide access when they’re needed again, and securely destroy eligible records once their retention period ends.
How is attorney-client privilege protected during offsite storage?
Record Storage Systems uses restricted access, monitored security, and documented chain-of-custody procedures to protect confidential client files while they’re in storage. Files can be retrieved only through authorized requests, helping law firms maintain control over sensitive and privileged information.
What happens to client records if a law firm closes, merges, or dissolves?
Law firms closing, merging, or dissolving may need to notify clients and make arrangements for the continued custody of their files. Record Storage Systems can help transfer closed and inactive records into secure storage while maintaining access for authorized parties.
Can you help us digitize discovery documents and pleadings for easier case management?
Yes. Record Storage Systems can scan discovery documents, pleadings, affidavits, case files, and other paper records into searchable digital files. This makes historical documents easier for attorneys and staff to locate without retrieving physical boxes.
