General terms

Retention period

  1. The retention period for files (relevant correspondence, agreements and procedural documents excluding copies of the criminal file) is five years, calculated from the date of the concluding notification to the client or the date on which the judgement issued in the relevant case becomes final. After this period has lapsed, the files will be destroyed. Deviation from this retention period can only be agreed in writing. If there is no such agreement, the Firm is discharged from its obligation of retention after five years.
