This information will be used for the purposes of your case only, unless otherwise indicated by me and approved by you in writing. I will take all necessary steps that I can to protect any information you provide me with, however I cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online.  Information that you provide me will be stored for a period of 7 years from last contact.
