What you get with managed IT for law firms

With a fully managed IT plan from E-N Computers, you get a complete, turnkey IT department to provide support, maintenance, monitoring, and strategic improvements. 

Onboarding and Stabilization

Your systems are reviewed and documented. Urgent technical gaps are remedied so that day-to-day support will be a success. Remote monitoring and management software is installed so we can detect issues and help quickly. Your IT liaison and staff are trained on how to request support. 

Unlimited Support

You get access to our US-based help desk, available five different ways. After-hours support on nights, weekends, and holidays is included at no extra charge for critical alerts and work stoppage. Regularly scheduled onsite visits help to keep your documentation updated and resolve problems early. We resolve most issues in about 30 minutes, and we keep a close watch on them so that every issue is handled promptly and completely.

Cost Management

Between hardware, software, online services, VoIP phone service, and tech support, IT costs add up fast. We’ll show you how to cut IT costs while properly investing in your technology. This includes a licensing audit to make sure you’re only paying for what you need, reducing reliance on custom or complex solutions, taking advantage of automation, and budgeting for regular hardware replacements to avoid unnecessary downtime. 

Patching and Maintenance

We automatically update your Windows workstations, servers, and network equipment to protect against security threats and improve performance. When automatic updates fail, or important business software can’t be updated automatically, we do manual updates.  

Strategic Consultation

Quarterly reviews provide an opportunity to discuss successes and opportunities to improve. We work with you to develop a technology roadmap and budget that supports your goals, including compliance. These meetings help to make sure that your technology is serving you, not weighing you down. 

24/7 network monitoring and incident response

Around the clock monitoring and incident response protects you against malware, cyber threats, hardware failures, and more. When our monitoring tools detect an issue, a ticket is created for our technicians to follow up. As a result, you get a more secure and performant network. 

Backup and disaster recovery

We work with you to identify what data you possess, where it is stored, how frequently you need to back it up, and how long you need to retain it for. By default, we provide you with daily onsite and offsite backups of your data, retained for 30 days. Whether you store data locally or in the cloud, there will be a plan in place to protect you against data loss. 

Compliance Consulting

Nearly all of our clients have some kind of compliance requirements. Managing these on your own is almost impossible. We can help you navigate industry regulations such as: PCI, HIPAA, FTC, CMMC, ISO 27001, SOC 1 & 2. Also, we can help you use the Microsoft Purview portal to manage user activity and data security within your Microsoft 365 environment. 

Additional services

Our managed IT plans are designed to meet your daily needs and strategic goals. We also provide added services that are beyond the scope of your monthly plan.

Case Study

Law firm recovers after a sudden loss of IT services

Small law firms particularly struggle with keeping updated documentation, which can wreak havoc when a solo IT professional unexpectedly leaves or you want to change providers.

One of our recent clients is a small multi-disciplinary law practice in Charlottesville, Virginia with 12 staff, including four attorneys. Areas of practice include business, real estate, family, and traffic law, among others.

They had an unusually bad situation to recover fro when they lost their previous IT provider.

Sudden loss of their IT provider

When the firm’s one-man IT service provider died, all his knowledge and documentation about their systems died with him. They had an inefficient setup with conflicting onsite and cloud-based file storage solutions. And their systems were not well-designed or centrally managed, with inadequate backups.

During onboarding and stabilization, we regained access and replaced systems. As we did, we created documentation and made it available to the firm through our client portal.

File storage was simplified to reduce issues with syncing and finding the current, correct version of each file. Systems are now centrally managed and monitored to ensure performance and security. We implemented a better backup solution that incorporates onsite and offsite backups with partial restore tests completed on a regular basis.

Results: Security, speed and service

This firm now has professionally managed and documented systems that are not subject to a single point of failure. They have full access to documentation about their network. They also have streamlined file storage so that everyone can find what they need quickly, saving time and money and providing better service to their clients.

Frequently asked questions about IT services for law firms

How do you protect sensitive information? 

We take security seriously and appreciate clients with the same mindset. Measures like full disk encryption with BitLocker, unique user credentials, role-based access, and multi-factor authentication help to protect sensitive data. User training on good security practices and identifying scams is also vital. 

What hardware and software platforms do you use?

We use Dell workstations and servers and Meraki network equipment. We work extensively with Microsoft 365 and are partnered with Clio legal practice management software. You can find a list of our partners here. 

What are your guaranteed response times?

Find customer satisfaction and other support stats on our outsourced help desk services page. We quickly prioritize issues based on impact and urgency and have clear service goals for each priority level. 

How do you handle after-hours and emergency support? 

After-hours support for critical alerts and work stoppage is included in our fully managed IT plan at no extra charge. After-hours calls to our main service number are routed to an answering service. A technician will call you back in less than an hour. Non-emergency incidents will be queued for follow-up during regular business hours. 

Will we have a dedicated support team?

We assign every client an account manager, technical account manager, and onsite technician. In addition, all of our help desk and engineering staff are U.S.-based. You’ll always get a real person on the phone. Visit our team page to see who will be supporting you. 

How do you structure billing?

Your fully managed IT services are billed month-to-month, with no annual contract term. Products like Microsoft 365 and Cisco Meraki equipment are licensed and billed separately. Projects, including major upgrades of hardware and software, are billed separately but we will always review the costs and get your agreement before completing any work.
