IT Support for Law firms
From document management to case research, the law industry is heavily reliant on technology. It’s therefore essential to keep your IT performing optimally in order to function efficiently and effectively. Whether you’re a small law firm or a larger organisation, it’s critical that any highly sensitive client data is protected. That’s why we offer a range of IT support services for law firms around the UK from software upgrades and cyber security to remote access. Our IT professionals understand the unique challenges law firms face and have the expertise and resources to take them on.
We help to keep your clients’ data secure and your reputation safe.
- Is your practice completely secure against a data breach?
- Are you compliant with data protection laws?
- Can your staff work from anywhere with no loss of productivity?
- Are you able to accurately predict all your IT costs?
If the answer is no or you are unsure, you may want to book our 90-minute discovery workshop to benchmark your IT, give you insights into where it isn’t performing and help you understand what to do about it.

5 ways to prevent a data breach at your law firm
Supporting Digital Transformation for Law Firms
A transformation is taking place in law firms as the sector begins to embrace digitalisation. The Times claims this has been spurred by the need to work remotely during the pandemic and that “law firms are recalibrating how they deliver legal services to clients deploying digital services and data at the core.” (December 2021). This is why Pro Drive IT offers comprehensive IT support for solicitors across Surrey.
There is now a high demand in the legal sector to implement IT infrastructures that can support the growing needs of law firms across the UK. Providing end-to-end solutions and covering IT specialisations including cyber security, communications, cloud services and disaster, recovery and business continuity, Pro Drive is ideally placed to support the legal sector through this digital transformation.
Recently, we partnered with the law firm, Openshaw & Co, migrating their IT storage to a cloud-based service. This solution extended their IT capabilities and ensured they were meeting with the most stringent compliance requirements. Our researched and thoroughly tested solution was able to secure the confidential information of Openshaw & Co’s many blue-chip clients and proved invaluable during periods in which employees were working from home and accessing files remotely.
Data Protection For Law Firms
Law firms are privy to some highly confidential and very sensitive information. This information must be expertly secured with the most robust software. Not only is Pro Drive IT able to source the best cyber security solutions for your law firm, but we can install and maintain these.
Due to the speed at which technology moves, security strategies and systems must be regularly updated and tested to ensure their stringency. We find the best solution available to make your IT security as robust as possible and we also ensure it stays that way.
Cloud Solutions And IT Communications Support For Law Firms
Communication technology has experienced huge growth in the last few years, driven by the need for employees and clients to be able to connect and collaborate. Sometimes even across continents. Technology has enabled us to work from almost anywhere, at any time, but as a traditionally paper-reliant industry, the legal sector has not yet been at the forefront of this. However, as the requirement to work remotely spreads across all industries, law firms are looking to bolster their IT capabilities and migrate to systems that are more flexible and accessible.
Remote technology is not just for those businesses whose employees sometimes work from home. Digitalisation and cloud-based solutions enable employees to access essential files on trains, from the courtroom, in client boardrooms, on the go and from practically anywhere. With the right IT infrastructure, there’s never a need to ‘have to check that when you’re back in the office’.
Law firms we have worked with find the capabilities of cloud technology and our other software solutions empowering. We aim to utilise communications software at the forefront of innovation to increase productivity and take unnecessary obstacles away from your ability to focus on and meet the immediate needs of your clients.
Get in touch with Pro Drive IT today and we’ll be glad to share with you some of the phone and video conferencing solutions that could keep you better connected. We can also introduce you to some of the emerging collaborative software that brings together the talents and knowledge of your team to achieve your goals.
