    The Solicitors Regulation Authority take all documents and papers that relate to its clients, including files and accounting records. They keep the documents safe and, if appropriate, return them to the people they belong to.

    Champer is nearly correct.

    Reality is our documents stored with our solicitors when they went bankrupt have gone missing. This has caused us some issues.
