For a law firm, confidentiality isn’t just good practice. It’s the foundation of client-attorney privilege. Every file folder, business record and piece of client correspondence your office produces has to stay protected, right up to the moment it’s destroyed. When it’s time to dispose of old records, how you do it matters.
Sanmandy Document Destruction helps legal offices across Ashland, Canton, Mansfield, Medina, Wadsworth, Wooster and throughout Medina and Wayne Counties destroy confidential records securely, so client information stays private for good.
Sanmandy’s story started in December 1983 on a family farm with just 17 clients. Within five years, the client base had doubled and volume had quadrupled. In 1995, the company built its current facility, a 60 by 180-foot steel building with 24/7 surveillance, located in a rural setting away from main traffic. In 2002, Sanmandy bought the first mobile shredding truck in the region, and today the fleet includes two mobile shredding trucks.
The business is still family-owned and operated. Michael continues the legacy of his father and founder, Richard Bowman, alongside his wife Holly and their son Trevor. For law firms that value discretion and long-term relationships, working with a local family business means knowing exactly who is handling your clients’ information.
Every firm has different needs. Sanmandy offers both options so you can choose what fits your office.
A uniformed technician arrives at your office and places your documents in a locked bin. The bin is taken to Sanmandy’s mobile shredding truck and shredded right outside your door. You can witness the destruction and get immediate confirmation that your files are gone.
For firms with high volumes of sensitive documents, off-site shredding is an efficient choice. Your records are picked up on a schedule or on demand, transported in locked containers to Sanmandy’s secure plant in Creston, and shredded with industrial equipment. A strict chain of custody is maintained throughout the process.
With either option, you receive a Certificate of Destruction when the job is complete.
Confidential papers shouldn’t sit in an open recycling bin by the copier. Sanmandy places secure, locking containers in your office, customized to your layout, paper volume and staff size. Options include:
Attorneys and staff simply drop documents into the console. Everything stays locked until shredding day.
Busy firms that produce a lot of paper can choose daily service. Smaller practices may only need monthly pickups. Sanmandy also offers weekly and bi-weekly schedules, and one-time purge shredding is available with no contracts or commitments, which is ideal when clearing out old closed files.
Once your documents are shredded, 100% of the shredded paper is sent for recycling.
Sanmandy stands behind everything it offers and guarantees complete customer satisfaction. Call (330) 435-4455 or visit 2454 Steiner Rd., Creston, OH 44217 to get a free estimate for your law firm.
