Sound familiar?

A free assessment answers the first three in writing. See what we check

  • A partner asks, “Are we protected?” and nobody can answer.

    You have antivirus and a firewall somewhere, but no one can say what is covered, what is missing or who would notice an attack.

  • The cyber insurance form is due and the questions don’t make sense.

    Two-step sign-in, tested backups, endpoint monitoring. Insurers ask, and a wrong answer can cost you coverage when you need it.

  • A client wants your security policies before they send the next matter.

    Large clients and outside counsel guidelines now ask for written plans and proof. Most firms of your size have neither on file.

  • Your staff lose an hour waiting for someone to fix the printer.

    When the IT person is also the office manager, problems pile up and billable time quietly disappears.

How working with us starts

Every engagement begins the same way, so you know what you’re getting before you sign anything.

  1. Step 1

    Free security assessment

    We review your accounts, devices, backups and email security, usually without disrupting anyone’s work.

  2. Step 2

    Plain-English findings

    A partner gets a short report: what is fine, what is risky and what to fix first, in order of urgency.

  3. Step 3

    A clear proposal

    If you want our help, you get a fixed monthly price per person. No surprise bills for routine support.

  4. Step 4

    Careful onboarding

    We take over your IT around your deadlines, not during tax season or the week before trial.

We only work with two kinds of firms

Law firms and accounting practices share the same pressures: confidential files, client deadlines, trust and tax data, and clients who ask hard questions about security. Focusing on them means we already know your software and your busy seasons.
