IT Solutions for NC Law Firms
Protect client confidentiality, streamline document management, and meet ABA cybersecurity obligations with managed IT built for North Carolina legal practices.
Law Firms Are High-Value Targets
Sensitive client data, financial records, and privileged communications make legal practices attractive to cybercriminals.
Client Data Exposure
A breach of privileged communications or case files can destroy client trust, trigger malpractice claims, and result in bar disciplinary action.
Ethical Wall Failures
Without properly configured information barriers, attorneys working on conflicting matters may inadvertently access restricted files, creating liability.
E-Discovery Pressure
Courts expect firms to produce electronic records quickly and completely. Poor data management can lead to sanctions and spoliation claims.
Business Email Compromise
Attackers impersonate partners or clients to redirect wire transfers and steal funds. Law firms handling trust accounts are especially vulnerable.
