IT as dependable and discreet as the advice you give.

Law firms, accountants and consultancies run on client trust — your IT needs to match that standard, not undermine it or cost you billable hours.

Where it shows up

Common pressure points

Client confidentiality

Access control and data handling need to be right, not just assumed to be right.

Uptime during business hours

Email and document access going down costs billable hours, not just convenience.

Rising security expectations

Clients and insurers are increasingly asking pointed questions about your setup.

Document & email retention

Client files and correspondence need to be kept, findable and protected for as long as your regulator or professional body requires.

Security first

Identity, access control and compliance support suited to client-facing work.

Solutions

Specific solutions for client-facing practices

Beyond the five pillars, here's the kind of work we're regularly asked for by law firms, accountants and consultancies.

Secure client portals

Replace email attachments with a portal clients can log into, so sensitive files never sit in an inbox.

Client Trust & Uptime Readiness Score

Five honest yes/no questions covering the basics client-facing firms get judged on — a quick gut-check, not a full audit.

1. Does everyone use MFA on email and case management systems?

2. Do sensitive client files travel through a secure portal, not unencrypted email?

3. Are backups and document retention set up to match your professional body's rules?

4. If email or case files went down, would you keep working without losing billable hours?

5. Could you show a client or insurer clear documentation of your setup if asked?

Professional services FAQs

We're not a substitute for your regulator's own guidance, but we've worked with the security and confidentiality expectations common across law, accountancy and consultancy — and we'll flag early if something needs a specialist's sign-off.

Yes — this is one of the most common requests from professional services firms, and we'll size it to your caseload rather than oversell an enterprise system you don't need.

We help build backup and retention practices around whatever your professional body or regulator requires. You'll need to confirm the exact rules that apply to you, but we make sure the technical side actually meets them.

Access controls, encryption in transit and at rest, and MFA as standard — the same baseline we'd recommend to any business handling confidential information, tightened further if your work calls for it.
