Policy Regarding SMS Texting
The Law Office of Eric J. Smith treats client privacy very seriously. I accept texting from clients for their convenience only, and text only to them basic, non-sensitive information, like appointment reminders. All sensitive matters are best handled by phone, secure email or in person.
I collect name, address, phone number and email address from all contacts, as well as any further information sent.
I collect this data through our website contact form, as well as in further opt-in SMS communication. This is for the convenience of clients and prospective clients.
I collect this data to further the desired outcomes of my clients only. I do not, and I feel as an attorney CANNOT, share client information without their express consent.
My employees and contracted vendors are expressly aware of my responsibility in attorney-client communication and information control. Wherever possible, data is stored in encrypted, password protected media using 2-factor identification, with access to data logged.
Data is only shared with third parties with the client’s express knowledge and consent, and then only to further client goals.
Clients may have their complete data file at any time or request its removal and deletion. I keep client files for a minimum of five (5) years unless expressly instructed by a client not to. I reserve the right to delete client data five years after a matter is completed. I have a custodial agreement with another Texas licensed attorney in the case of my death or incapacity.
Email me at eric@midcitieslaw.com with any concerns about the data we have.
Consent to SMS messaging may be shown to my third party vendors if necessary to further client goals.
