Dutton Brock LLP, in its commitment to be the pre-eminent commercial insurance litigation firm in Canada, is similarly committed to the protection of the personal information of its clients. While we are dedicated to maintaining the highest level of compliance with legislation that mandates the protection of personal information, Dutton Brock goes beyond that required by law.

Our sole purpose in collecting, using and disclosing personal information is with respect to our mission: delivery of legal services.

The personal information collected, used and disclosed by Dutton Brock includes not only the name, address and telephone number of our clients, but also includes any information necessary to understand, respond and represent the needs of our clients. This information may be provided by others in addition to our clients. However, the goal always remains the same: the delivery of superior legal services and advice.

By retaining Dutton Brock LLP, we assume that we have the consent of our clients to use, collect and disclose personal information for the purposes of this retainer and to provide other legal advice. In the event that the purpose which we will put our client's personal information is not obvious from the nature of the solicitor/client relationship, we will seek your permission. Clients are at liberty at any time to refuse to provide such personal information. Of course, the ability for us to provide outstanding legal services and advise may be limited by such refusal.

Dutton Brock LLP has long established policies for the protection of the personal information of our clients in place before the law required it. Access to our office is secure and controlled. Our office's computers are similarly secured and access to information is limited to those with a direct purpose in accessing it. Such access may include lawyers, clerks, secretaries and others, including experts who we have retained to assist us in the delivery of legal services.

Dutton Brock has a privacy officer who responds to the questions and concerns of our clients. The privacy officer can be contacted directly as follows:
