Retention
Retention and destruction are controlled as defensible lifecycle events rather than ad hoc file cleanup.

The retention engine applies jurisdiction and matter-type logic, schedules reviews, and records every approved destruction in a permanent destruction register.

What this page covers

  • Retention periods can vary by jurisdiction, matter type, and client profile.
  • Review workflows support extension, partial destruction, or full destruction with approvals.
  • Destruction certificates preserve the permanent record of what was destroyed, when, by whom, and under what authority.

What firms gain

  • Firms can avoid indefinite uncontrolled storage growth.
  • Disposition becomes reviewable and defensible.
  • A permanent destruction record remains even after the source documents are lawfully removed.
