Privacy & Security

Privacy may seem like a lost virtue in today’s interconnected world, but it is one we vigorously protect.

We do this through internal practices, and by maintaining the latest digital security. After papers arrive digitally, we immediately password encrypt them, stamp them with an expiration date, and block them from being printed. Papers sent via the postal service are not allowed off-site after we receive them, until they are returned to the client. To transfer files from the client, we use Dropbox.com. Dropbox.com is built on Amazon.com’s S3 data center and uses banking-level 256-bit SSL communication encryption. We do not share your data with anyone without your permission.
