For New Law Firm Founders
Build on a Secure Foundation From Day One.
Email, devices, file access, backups and practice management software, set up properly from the start, so the decisions you make now still make sense once your firm is ten people.
- Set up properly for a firm of two, ready for a firm of ten
- No enterprise-grade cost or complexity you don’t need yet
- One partner, from your first hire to your fifteenth
Getting the Foundation Right
The decisions you make now are the ones you’ll live with at ten people.
You don’t have an IT problem yet. You have a hundred decisions to make correctly the first time, with no reliable way to know which ones actually matter.
Email, devices, file access, backups and practice management software all get chosen once, early, usually by whoever’s setting up the firm. Get the foundation right and hiring your third, fifth and tenth person is routine. Get it wrong and you’re rebuilding it later, at the worst possible time.
Decisions You’re Already Making
The choices that are easy to get wrong early.
Professional email and Microsoft 365, set up once
Anyone can register a domain and a mailbox. Getting the admin structure and access rights right the first time is what actually matters.
File access and permissions from day one
Decide now who can see what, so it’s not a scramble to fix once you’ve hired your third and fourth person.
Backups you can actually rely on
Client files and correspondence backed up properly from the start, not added after something is lost.
Cyber security basics, not enterprise overkill
Multi-factor authentication and secure defaults sized for a firm of two, ready to grow with you.
A repeatable way to onboard your next hire
When your next hire starts Monday, their laptop and access are ready before they have to ask.
Built to Last
This is what getting it right the first time looks like.
No re-doing a domain and email migration eighteen months in, no discovering the file permissions were never set up properly. A foundation that still makes sense when you’re ten people, not two.

Right-Sized From Day One
What you need now, and what it costs to skip it
What your firm needs now
- A professional domain, email and Microsoft 365 setup
- Devices and file access configured for however you and your team work
- Backups and cyber security basics in place from your first day
- A repeatable process for onboarding your next hire
What it costs you if you don’t
- A domain and mailbox migration eighteen months in, moving live client threads mid-matter
- File permissions handed out ad hoc, discovered wrong only once a client complains
- A lost device or ransomware incident with nothing to restore from, and no policy pack to show your insurer
- Every new hire a scramble: a laptop ordered late, access nobody remembers to set up or revoke
Grow With Confidence
Grow the firm with confidence. The technology underneath it is ready to grow with you.
Look back in five years and know you built this properly, rather than rebuilding along the way what should have been right from the start.
FAQs
Starting a law firm, IT questions answered
No. We work with law firms from one solicitor upward, and getting the foundation right at one or two people is what makes hiring your third, fifth and tenth person routine instead of a project.
You won’t get it. We set up what a firm your size actually needs today, and build on it as you grow, not the other way around.
You can find most of these settings yourself. The harder part is knowing which ones actually matter for a firm holding client trust information, and which can safely wait.
Yes, we regularly work alongside the practice management and trust accounting software law firms use, and can help you choose one if you haven’t yet.
Onboarding a new solicitor or paralegal becomes routine: mailbox, file access and devices ready before they start, not a fresh project every time.
A conversation about the firm you’re building, no obligation, so we can map out what it actually needs.
