Nonpublic Personal Information We Collect

We collect nonpublic personal information about you that you provide directly, or that we obtain with your authorization or consent during the course of our engagement, including through discovery in litigation. This information is essential for providing legal services and fulfilling our professional obligations.

Disclosure of Information

No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

In compliance with New York State law, we are strictly prohibited from revealing confidential client information without your authorization, unless compelled by law. This policy includes the protection of Social Security numbers, where we adopt the same stringent measures as for all other nonpublic personal information.

We ensure the secure handling of your data by:

  • Restricting access to personal information.
