• The Court or other parties to a case as required by law
• Any other person or entity to whom our client has authorized our making a disclosure, or to whom disclosure is required by law or applicable rules of procedure.

HOW DO WE PROTECT THE SECURITY & CONFIDENTIALITY OF CLIENT’S INFORMATION:

Within our firm, we retain records relating to our professional services, accessible to our staff, to assist us in effectively representing you and, in some cases, to administrator business or to comply with professional standards.  We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards for your personal nonpublic information that comply with our professional standards, including shredding of documents, firewalls and passwords.  If you have further questions regarding the confidentiality of your personal information, please contact any Allison & Johnson, LLP partner attorney.
