Regarding your specific question about sample law firm retention policies, law firms don't generally like to share their proprietary work product, so I suggest you obtain the legal records management textbook entitled "Records Management in the Legal Environment: A Handbook of Practice and Procedure," available from the ARMA Bookstore at:
http://www.arma.org/bookstore/productdetail.cfm?ProductID=1389
The book contains an extensive sample policy.

Subject: Law Firm Retention Schedule
Does anyone have an updated law firm retention schedule they would be
willing to share? I would like to evaluate it as a starting point for
creating an internal draft schedule to be presented to the Firm
management.
