KAHAN, KERENSKY & CAPOSSELA, LLP
Attorneys that provide "financial services," like other professionals who provide financial services, are now required by law to inform their clients of their policies regarding privacy of client information. Attorneys have been and continue to be bound by professional standards of confidentiality that are even more stringent than those required by law. The American Bar Association Model Rules of Professional Conduct strictly prohibit the disclosure of any information relating to the representation of a client except when the client consents after consultation, when disclosures are impliedly authorized in order to carry out the representation, or in other very limited circumstances. Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy.
Types of Nonpublic Personal Information We Collect
In providing you with legal services, we collect nonpublic personal information about you that is provided by you or obtained by us with your authorization. Whether you are an existing client or former client, all the information we receive from you is held in confidence, and is not released to parties outside the firm, except as agreed to by you, or as required under applicable law.
Protecting the Confidentiality and Security of Clients' Information
We retain records relating to personal services that we provide so that we are better able to assist you with your professional needs, and in some cases, to comply with professional guidelines. In order to protect the confidentiality and security of your nonpublic personal information, we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with our professional standards.
