Technology That Supports Your Daily Work
We help your firm keep the tools it relies on working together, from business email and shared calendars to document access and remote work. When a problem involves a legal software provider, we can help coordinate troubleshooting so your office manager doesn’t have to navigate the technical conversation. We can also manage technology onboarding and offboarding for your company.
Incorporate AI with Clear Safeguards
AI can help with first drafts, organizing information, and routine administrative tasks. Before your staff uses it for client work, your firm needs to understand what happens to the information entered and how to check results.
- Choose appropriate tools
- Review privacy terms, data retention, training use, connected applications, and access settings.
- Set rules employees can follow
- Identify approved tools, permitted tasks, and information that must stay out of unapproved AI services. Include meeting transcription and AI note-taking tools.
- Keep attorneys in control
- Require independent verification of facts, legal citations, and conclusions. Attorneys retain responsibility for legal judgment, professional obligations, and any required client disclosures or consent.
GEEK-AID can help with the technology review, setup, and employee training. Start with a small pilot using nonconfidential information, then evaluate the results before expanding.
Share Client Files with Greater Control
Your team needs convenient access to documents without making them available to the wrong people. We help configure secure sharing, appropriate permissions, and protected access from office and remote devices. A documented process for new hires and departures helps give people the access they need and remove it promptly when their work ends.
Retention and deletion settings should follow your firm’s approved policies and any applicable preservation requirements.
Protect Email and Reduce Payment Fraud Risks
A predatory message can look like it came from a client, partner, or trusted vendor. Email protection, multifactor authentication, and practical employee training help reduce the risk of stolen accounts and fraudulent requests.
Use phishing-resistant sign-in methods where supported. Verify new or changed payment instructions through a separate channel using a previously verified phone number. Email security alone cannot establish that a payment request is legitimate.
Plan for Recovery Before Work Is Interrupted
A backup is most useful when your firm knows it can restore the information it needs. We help review backup coverage for essential files, email, and supported cloud systems, protect backup copies from the same attack affecting day-to-day systems, and test restoration.
A practical backup and recovery response plan identifies who to call, which systems to restore first, and how staff will communicate during an outage. Your firm should also know the expected recovery time and potential data loss for its agreed-on solution.
Start with a Clear Plan for Your Firm
We begin by reviewing your devices, accounts, software, and current support arrangements. Together, we identify urgent issues, agree on priorities, and define the support and maintenance your firm needs.
-
Review
Understand your systems, workflow, and concerns.
-
Prioritize
Address important gaps and agree on a practical plan.
-
Support
Provide ongoing help and review needs as your firm changes.
Your proposal should clearly explain coverage, pricing, response arrangements, and any services that require a separate agreement.
Questions from Law Firm Owners
Can you support a firm without an IT employee?
Yes. We can provide day-to-day IT support and technology guidance, working with a designated partner or office manager on approvals and priorities. We can also work alongside an in-house IT employee to co-manage or augment technology services for your practice.
Can we use AI with confidential client information?
Only after the firm evaluates the specific tool, its settings, and its intended use, and addresses its professional obligations. A paid subscription alone does not establish suitability.
Does managed IT ensure legal compliance?
IT safeguards can support your firm’s obligations. The firm remains responsible for determining applicable legal, ethical, client, and court requirements.
