You’re the Lawyer. Let Us Be the Tech.
So you’ve made the leap—you’re starting your own law firm.
That’s exciting… and let’s be honest, overwhelming.
You’ve got client files to organize, a brand to build, and probably a long list of decisions you didn’t expect to make. One of the biggest? What tech tools you need, and how to set them up.
You might be thinking, “I can figure this out myself.”
And technically, you can.
But here’s the truth:
You didn’t go to law school to waste time setting up email servers or comparing file storage systems.
You went to serve your clients, build your practice, and make a real impact.
That’s where we come in.
What Is Cloud Computing (in Plain English)?
Let’s break it down:
Cloud computing for small law firms just means your files, email, calendars, and tools aren’t stored on a single computer or local server. They’re stored online (in “the cloud”), so you and your team can access them securely from anywhere—home, court, a client’s office, or even vacation.
Instead of saving contracts to a desktop folder that only you can open, you save it to a shared, encrypted location where authorized people can work with it in real-time.
Simple. Smart. Secure.
Google vs. Microsoft – Why Legal Professionals Choose Microsoft
A lot of small businesses start with Google Workspace. And hey, it’s user-friendly.
But for legal work? It often falls short.
Let’s compare:
✖️ Google Workspace
- Basic tools like Gmail, Docs, Sheets
- Fine for general business use
- But… lacks deep compliance features
- Can feel flimsy and “DIY”
- Third-party tools needed to patch up security gaps
✅ Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)
- Full suite: Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint
- Designed for business-class security and compliance
- Built-in legal retention policies and audit trails
- Stronger control over who sees what—and when
- Feels familiar to anyone who’s ever used Word or Outlook
If you’re an immigration attorney or small law firm dealing with sensitive client data, compliance isn’t optional.
Microsoft 365 is the clear winner here.
“But Do I Really Need a Tech Partner?”
You could spend hours researching which Microsoft plan to choose.
You could figure out how to migrate your personal Gmail to Outlook, set up shared mailboxes, file permissions, Teams channels, and client folders…
But at what cost?
That’s time you could be using to:
- Build your reputation
- Network with referral sources
- Focus on your clients
- Win cases
