Info Governance Are you operating your firm as a high-wire act? If you don't have a written data retention policy in place - then you are. Unless you plan to keep all data forever, you risk claims of arbitrary and capricious destruction of data - a position that can leave you vulnerable. And keeping-data-forever opens you to potentially monumental discovery demands which the firm will spend hours constraining before the judge.. Without policy - you're in a no-win no-win position. This article discusses steps necessary to implement a data retention policy .. It will point you in the right direction whether started from scratch or tuning up an existing policy.

- BOL: Law on Call Thanks to Law and More for this of Utah's Law on Call .. finally Law for All?
- BOL: Billable Hour - Friend or Foe This is a Geek article discussing the question.. is the Billable Hour Friend or Foe?.. My 2 sense worth here: regardless of your billing approach, the "hour" measurement is the best measure we have to gauge profitability. Assume you're working a fixed-fee engagement - you still need a tally of billable hours to know whether your efforts are profitable or not. The Billable Hour will remain a key metric until we find something better..
