Law Firms

Law firm IT and cybersecurity for privileged work.

Matter-aware security, reliable access, and systems that stand up to scrutiny.

Let's Talk

A partner walks out of court at 4:30 PM and expects the brief emailed in 20 minutes. Their paralegal is trying to pull it from a folder she does not have access to, routed through a VPN that just timed out.

This is not a technology problem. It is a system problem that turns into an ethics problem the moment a deadline slips. We built CHK to keep those moments from happening, and to keep your Rule 1.6 obligations demonstrable rather than assumed.

What we hear from law firms

These are the problems that show up in the first conversation. They are also the problems most providers quietly accept as normal. We do not.

Confidentiality obligations you have to back up.

ABA Model Rule 1.6 is the floor, not the ceiling. Your systems need to show the work.

Matter-based access nobody enforces.

Everyone has access to everything. One breach, one disaster, one ethics complaint.

Document systems that fight with email.

Versions everywhere. Draft five in the DMS, draft seven in someone's inbox. Nobody knows what is final.

Discovery holds that happen three steps too late.

Retention policies that live on a PDF nobody opens. The moment you need them proved is the moment they fail.

How CHK helps

Three things we do well for law firms. Not a menu. A commitment.

Matter-aware security

Access segmented by case. Logged by user. Reviewed quarterly. What happens with a matter stays with the matter.

DMS plus email integration

iManage, NetDocuments, Clio, MyCase, Outlook, and M365 run as one coordinated system. Versioning you can trust.

Cyber insurance readiness

Security questionnaires answered with evidence. Controls maintained year-round so the answers stay true.

What changes when it works

No made-up statistics. Just the things our clients tell us are different now.

How we engage

Every engagement follows the same four phases. The scope changes. The discipline does not.

01

Discovery

Two weeks to document what you have, what's stable, and what's at risk. No assumptions.

02

Stabilize

Fix what's broken now. Quiet the noise so your team can hear themselves work again.

03

Harden

Security baseline, access cleanup, backup verified. The work most providers skip.

04

Optimize

A clear roadmap for the year ahead. You know what's next and what it costs.

Questions we get a lot

Straight answers. If you have one we did not answer here, the contact form is the fastest way to get a real response.

Are you familiar with iManage, NetDocuments, Clio, and MyCase?

Yes, across all major DMS and practice management platforms. We coordinate with vendors directly so your team does not have to.

Can you help us prepare for cyber insurance renewals?

Yes. We answer the security questionnaire for you and maintain the underlying controls year-round so the answers stay honest.

What about the ABA 2017 cybersecurity opinion?

It is a baseline expectation, not a ceiling. We design to meet it by default and document how we do it.

Our firm is under 25 attorneys. Are we too small?

No. Small and mid-sized firms carry the same ethical obligations and often have less in-house expertise. You are exactly who we are built for.

Protect the work. Protect the trust.
