Excellent article in Wisconsin Lawyer (vol. 82, no.3, March 2009) on the
retention/destruction of client files. (free article - no registration
required)

Closed Client Files: Hold 'em or Fold 'em:
*http://tinyurl.com/d34mlg*<http://tinyurl.com/d34mlg>
"In poker, not knowing when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em may mean you
leave your stake on the table and stumble away hat-in-hand. In law practice,
not knowing when to hold closed client files and when to destroy them might
expose you to an ethics violation. Neither result gets you to the kitty."
