Now I may be reading Earl's response incorrectly, and of course it may be different in a law office, but to me "a record is a record regardless of media" would apply here.   Lync is just another media type.   By turning off Lync they may be deleting records that are discoverable.    Be interested in what are respected legal eagles have to say on the subject.   Excellent question.

Good question Kathy and yes, our attorneys tell me that these kinds of communications can indeed, be discoverable.  We also use Lync internally, and made a very conscious decision to turn off the Save feature of Lync and they are not identified on our retention schedules.    We also encourage our users not to use screenshots, cut & paste, nor anything else to capture their Lync conversations.

Thanks.
Earl
