How We Safeguard Your Information

Protection of your information is key to everything we do. Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm maintains a range of physical, technical, and administrative safeguards designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or destruction. We use the following safeguards:

  • Office locations that have limited access

  • Back-up and recovery of all electronic data
  • Periodic training of our staff on confidentiality, privacy security laws, rules, regulations, and best practices
  • Paper documents that are shredded when they are no longer needed

While we work hard to safeguard your information, no technology or transmission method can be guaranteed as secure. This is why Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm continually evaluates and updates its procedures in order to mitigate risk and quickly detect and respond to possible attacks.

Confidentiality and Protection Under the Attorney-Client Privilege

Our commitments to confidentiality are not only policy requirements but also legal and ethical obligations that we uphold as a firm. Information that is disclosed to or otherwise shared with Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm in the course of seeking or receiving legal advice shall be treated as confidential. Unless permitted by you, the client, or otherwise required by law or court order in the course of litigation, or otherwise necessary to prevent harm or fulfill our duties as practitioners, attorneys of Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm do not share such information with any third parties.

Attorney-client and work-product confidentialities apply to all correspondence, documents, and other case materials that we receive. It is the policy of our firm that all staff, counsel, and professionals are bound by strict confidentiality undertakings and professional codes of conduct.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or otherwise license your personal information. Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm may disclose personal information in the following limited situations:

  • With Your Consent: When you have given the firm permission to share with other parties, such as expert witnesses or co-counsel.
  • Service Providers: We have contracted with reputable service providers who help us provide our services; for example, our IT service and equipment providers, document storage and management vendors, couriers, and credit card payment processors. These service providers are technically required by contract to protect your information and to keep it only as long as necessary to accomplish the task for which they were hired.
  • Legal Requirements: When we are required by law or court order, or to cooperate with a government investigation or administrative request, or if we need to protect our legal rights or property, a service provider or others, share in order to prevent a crime or protect national security.
  • Safety: If we may need to share your information because it is necessary to protect the safety, rights, or property of the firm or others.

We consider whether sharing is necessary or appropriate depending on the circumstances, ask you for permission where applicable, and typically restrict our providers from using your personal information outside the context of our contract.

International Clients, Transfers of Your Personal Information

Fehaid Al Dosri Law Firm works with clients based in the United States and other international jurisdictions.

If the information must be transferred to a country which does not have equivalent data protection rules, we make contractual arrangements and seek your permission where necessary.
