Our Expertise

Drawing on nearly 25 years of IT experience in several industries, we provide consulting services focused on IT strategy, security, and project management. We tend to focus on law firms, but we are open to any industry.

While most firms have a good handle on their IT operations, small and medium law firms struggle to define technology and security strategy. Why is it so?

  • Operational teams tend to focus on short term activities and "fighting fires".
  • In many cases, the most senior person in business administration does not come from a business background or does not have experience with putting together a strategic plan.
  • Most IT life cycles are longer than typical planning cycles for law firms (3 or 5 years).

At times you need someone external who understands legal and technology and get help with defining a technology strategy. With the advent of cloud computing and AI, the world of IT has changed dramatically. In the past you could have relied on an in-house, isolated environment; nowadays core functions for IT teams are end-user support, system integrations, and contract management. Read more...

Security strategy, unfortunately, suffers from what we call "Dick Cheney syndrome" - where the vendor performing the assessment recommends buying the vendor solution.  We provide vendor-neutral approach, focused on risks and risk tolerance, rather than checking boxes. Read more...

We also know that Project management is something that most law firms are struggling with, and that includes larger firms. While most technology implementations are not overly complex in law firms, scope creep, and change management are two key aspects that need to be professionally controlled. This is where our expertise in the successful delivery of multiple projects comes in handy. Read more...
