Smyrna Document StorageÂ
Record Nations Smyrna will link you with document storage companies who can provide you with the best choices for secure storage of your physical and digital files. In Georgia, the state has no retention policy concerning a lawyer’s client files, but does require that trust account, escrow account and IOLTA account records be retained for at least six (6) years.
Healthcare providers have to retain patients’ medical records for at least ten (10) years after the last recorded entry. That’s a lot of square footage devoted to paper files. And space is money.
Have you ever considered how much of your staff’s time is spent on document storage and getting documents out of file cabinets? Do you have a policy for document retention? How easy would it be for you to find a specific file right now? What happens when a file is misplaced and you can’t find it?
