Common use of YOUR FILES Clause in Contracts

YOUR FILES. Throughout our representation, we will provide you with copies of the relevant and pertinent legal work product created on your behalf. If you choose to terminate our representation, then upon your written request, we will provide you a second, electronic copy of your file. Should you need a second copy of your file upon termination, we reserve the right to assess a cost for providing you with the same. You authorize us to dispose of your file for a matter no earlier than 90 days, or such longer time as may be required by law for a particular matter, whichever occurs last, when either we complete our legal services for the matter, the matter is resolved, or your representation is terminated. We shall not be required to give you notice prior to disposing of your file for a matter. If you want to obtain a file rather than having us dispose of it, then you must notify us in writing. Such notification must be made within 60 days of the time after either we complete our legal services for the matter, the matter is resolved, or your representation is terminated.
