INDUSTRIES
Geekland IT supports law firms from Lakeville, across the Twin Cities, nearby suburbs, and western Wisconsin. We manage email security, account permissions, and access to matter documents, so attorneys can work from the office, home, or a client’s site.
03 / LEGAL SERVICES
When a client sends a revised agreement while someone else is editing an earlier copy, staff need to know where the current matter documents belong. They also need access that lets them do their work while protecting confidential information.
We support email and manage account permissions so attorneys can communicate and open the files their work requires. We set up access so attorneys can reach the documents they need from home, while folders for a particular matter stay limited to the people handling it.
Discuss your IT needsWe organize shared matter documents in locations the people working on them understand and set permissions according to who needs access.
That way a revised agreement goes where others will find the current copy, and only the people working on that matter can read or edit it.
A phishing email or a stolen password can put client correspondence at risk. We look at email security, sign-in settings, and access to confidential records together, and mobile device management for the firm’s phones and tablets can be added if you need it.
For a confidential agreement going outside the firm, we provide email encryption and manage the sharing settings that decide who a file link reaches.
An attorney using a laptop at a client’s office still needs secure access to the firm’s documents. We plan support and access around where attorneys and staff work and which applications they need there.
When we change an attorney’s computer or access, we account for the documents and applications they use at home and at a client’s office as well as at their desk.
THE COMMON THREAD
We start by learning which applications people need to finish their work and when they need them, because a system used mainly around a deadline can matter as much as one used every day.
Then we discuss where staff get stuck and where access or protection needs attention, and we explain what would change if each problem were fixed so you can decide what comes first.
Before work begins, we agree on which parts of your IT Geekland IT will handle, which responsibilities stay with you, and which belong to your software vendors.
