Four IT concerns come up again and again for law practices. Here’s how we handle each one.
A lost laptop, a shared password or a former employee who still has access can expose privileged client files.
How we help: We limit who can open which client files, keep laptops encrypted, and remove access promptly when someone leaves.
Your document management system (DMS) and practice-management software hold the whole firm. When they’re slow or down, work stops.
How we help: We keep the computers, network and accounts they run on healthy and backed up, and we work directly with your software vendor on upgrades and problems.
Criminals break into or imitate email accounts and send fake wire instructions for settlements, retainers and trust-account transfers.
How we help: We secure email with multi-factor sign-in and filtering, help staff spot phishing, and help you set a simple rule: confirm any wire change by phone using a number you already know.
Attorneys work from court, home, client offices and depositions, often on public or hotel Wi-Fi.
How we help: We set up secure remote access to your files and DMS, so attorneys can work anywhere without emailing documents to personal accounts.

State Bar guidance
California’s rules make technology part of practicing law. Reasonable security isn’t just good IT. It’s part of how attorneys meet their obligations to clients.
Business and Professions Code section 6068(e) and Rule of Professional Conduct 1.6 require attorneys to protect client confidences, including the ones stored on computers and in email.
The comment to Rule 1.1 says competence includes keeping up with the benefits and risks of the technology you use to serve clients.
State Bar Formal Opinion 2020-203 discusses attorneys’ duties to take reasonable steps to protect electronic client data and to tell clients when a breach affects them.
We help you put reasonable safeguards in place and explain them in plain English. We’re IT people, not lawyers, so this isn’t legal advice.
We review your email security and multi-factor sign-in, check that your backups are running and recoverable, and scan the dark web for leaked company passwords. Results explained in plain English, with no obligation.

A quick review of your email security and multi-factor sign-in, a check that your backups are running and recoverable, and a dark web scan for leaked company passwords (the dark web is hidden websites where criminals trade stolen logins). We explain the results in plain English, with no obligation.
There’s no single required checklist, but California attorneys must protect client confidences and stay competent with the technology they use. In practice, that means taking reasonable steps to secure client data. Your ethics counsel can advise on your specific duties.
Confirm every new or changed wire instruction by phone, using a number you already have, never one from the email. Add multi-factor sign-in and email filtering so criminals can’t easily break into or imitate your accounts.
It can be, with the right setup. Attorneys should reach firm files through secure remote access on encrypted laptops, not by emailing documents to personal accounts.
