Depending on the nature of a matter, this may include sharing information with courts, tribunals, barristers, experts, professional advisers, insurers, other solicitors, financial institutions, public authorities, service providers and other parties involved in a legal matter.

The length of time for which information is retained will depend on the nature of the information and the circumstances in which it was collected.
