Lawyers, as providers of certain personal services, may now be required by recent federal legislation (the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) to inform their clients of their policies regarding privacy of client information. Our law firm understands your concerns as a client for privacy and the need to ensure privacy of all your information. Your privacy is important to us, and maintaining your trust and confidence is a priority. Lawyers have been and continue to be bound by confidentiality standards that are more stringent than the privacy standards required by the Act. Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy and will continue to do so in the future. The purpose of this notice is to explain our Privacy Policy with regard to your personal information that we obtain and how we keep that information secure.
NONPUBLIC PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT
In the course of an engagement we collect non-public information about you that is provided to us by you or obtained from others with your authorization or consent. WE DO NOT DISCLOSE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT OUR CLIENTS OR FORMER CLIENTS TO ANYONE EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY LAW AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE ETHICS RULES.
We do not disclose any non-public personal information about current or former clients obtained in the course of representation, except as expressly or impliedly authorized by those clients to enable us to effectuate the purpose of our representation or as required or permitted by law or applicable rules of professional conduct.
CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY
We retain records relating to professional services that we provide so that we are better able to assist you with your professional needs and to comply with professional guidelines or legal requirements. In order to protect your information, we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with our professional obligation to preserve the confidentiality of client information. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about the privacy of your personal information.
NOTE ON CASE REFERENCES
Please note that references on these pages to select cases are offered as examples of the many kinds of legal services that we have had the opportunity to provide in the past. Case results depend on a variety of factors unique to each case. Such results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future case undertaken by an RRMDK attorney.
