frequently asked questions

Choosing the right IT and cybersecurity partner is a big decision.
Here are some of the questions law firm owners ask before they book a call with MoreMax.

Can you help us switch from our current IT provider?2026-05-12T21:29:06+00:00

Yes. Helping firms move away from a provider that no longer fits is one of the common reasons firms contact us.

Can you help if we have outgrown our DIY IT setup?2026-05-12T21:27:23+00:00

Yes. Many firms contact us when the owner or office manager has been holding things together, but the setup is no longer sustainable.

Can you help if we are launching a new law firm?2026-05-12T21:29:28+00:00

Yes. MoreMax is a strong fit for law firm startups, that want to get their technology, security, and support set up properly from the beginning.

We help new firms build a stronger foundation, so they are not patching things together later. That includes the essentials around Microsoft 365, security, user setup, support, and the day-to-day tools a modern law firm relies on.

Is MoreMax only for solo and small law firms?2026-05-12T21:21:16+00:00

That does not mean “too small.” It means focused. Most law firms in the U.S. fall into this range, and their needs are often very different from those of larger organizations with internal IT teams.

Who is MoreMax best suited for?2026-05-21T06:24:22+00:00

MoreMax is built for law firms with 1-25 users that want their technology handled with security, confidentiality, and growth in mind.

We are a strong fit for firms that rely on Microsoft 365, handle sensitive client information, and want practical protection around email, identity, devices, backups, and remote access – without having to build an internal IT department.

Law firms usually come to us in one of a few situations: they are launching and want to build the right foundation, they are ready to stop handling IT themselves, they are frustrated with an unresponsive provider, or they are recovering from a security scare. Whether the goal is to get things right from day one or fix what is no longer working, we help put the right systems in place so you can spend less time managing IT and more time building the firm.

MoreMax is a good fit if your firm:

  • Uses, or wants to use, Microsoft 365 as the core platform for email, files, identity, and collaboration
  • Wants stronger protection for client data, financial information, and confidential communications
  • Needs help with cybersecurity controls, cyber-insurance readiness, and compliance expectations
  • Wants secure onboarding and offboarding for attorneys, staff, contractors, and remote users
  • Needs reliable backups for Microsoft 365, including Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive
  • Wants a provider that understands law firm workflows, confidentiality, and the pressure of running a practice
  • Values plain-English guidance instead of technical noise

We are probably not the right fit if:

  • You only want occasional break-fix support when something stops working
  • You want to keep Google Workspace as your long-term platform instead of moving toward Microsoft 365
  • You are not ready to use basic security protections like MFA, backups, device management, and email security
  • You want the cheapest possible IT option rather than a security-first technology partner

Our best clients want more than “IT support”

MoreMax is not built around the old model of waiting for things to break and then reacting. We help law firms build a stronger technology foundation from the start – one that supports security, productivity, client confidentiality, and long-term growth.

If your firm has 1-25 users and wants Microsoft 365 handled properly, client data protected, and technology decisions made with legal work in mind, MoreMax may be a strong fit.

Do you work with firms outside Texas and Idaho?2026-05-12T22:03:12+00:00

Yes. While we have physical offices in Georgetown, Texas and Boise, Idaho, we serve law firms all over the country. Think of us as your firm’s “virtual IT department.” Because we specialize in cloud-based security and remote support, it doesn’t matter if your office is across the street from us or 2,000 miles away.

How can you support my firm if you aren’t physically here?

  • Instant Remote Help: 99% of IT issues can be fixed by our team logging in remotely. We can see your screen and fix the problem while you’re on the phone with us.

  • Secure Anywhere: Our Cyber Essentials package protects your laptops and files no matter where you take them, the courtroom, your home, or a hotel.

  • Easy Setup: If you need new hardware, we ship it to you “ready to work.” You just plug it in and sign on.

The bottom line: You get the specialized expertise of a law-firm-focused IT team without being limited by your zip code. We protect firms from coast to coast.

What is “Cyber Essentials for Law Firms™”?2026-05-12T21:35:06+00:00

It is our signature bundled service, specifically engineered to address the unique digital risks faced by the legal industry. In an era where client confidentiality is paramount and cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated, “Cyber Essentials” provides a robust, multi-layered defense system.

We’ve distilled high-level enterprise security into one simple, manageable package that focuses on the three most vulnerable areas of your practice:

  • Email Security: We implement advanced filtering and encryption to shield your inbox from phishing, spoofing, and malware. This ensures that your most common form of communication remains a closed loop.

  • File Protection: Your work product and client data are your most valuable assets. We provide secure, redundant backups and access controls to ensure your files are protected from ransomware and accidental loss, keeping you compliant with data retention standards.

  • Device Monitoring: Whether you are in the courtroom, the office, or working from home, we monitor your laptops and workstations 24/7. We proactively patch vulnerabilities and detect suspicious activity before it can escalate into a breach.

The “Big Firm” Advantage Historically, comprehensive cybersecurity was a luxury only the largest firms could afford. Cyber Essentials for Law Firms™ changes that. It is designed to give solo practitioners and small firms the same level of “big firm” protection, compliance, and peace of mind—without the “big firm” price tag or technical complexity.

What are Firm Foundation™, Secure Seat™, and Firm Support™?2026-05-12T21:43:25+00:00

These are the three core modules that make up Cyber Essentials for Law Firms™.

Firm Foundation™ is the base.
Secure Seat™ is the user-level technology and security stack.
Firm Support™ gives you the support hours your firm needs.

Together, they create a simpler and more structured way to support a law firm than a menu of disconnected services.

Are you Microsoft 365 focused?2026-05-12T21:45:26+00:00

Yes. MoreMax is built around Microsoft 365 and the needs of law firms that rely on it.

We prefer depth over being everything to everyone. That focus helps us deliver a more consistent experience and stronger guidance around security, user management, and the day-to-day needs of modern law firms.

Do you support Google Workspace?2026-05-12T21:51:14+00:00

MoreMax is not positioned as a Google Workspace support provider for ongoing managed services.

Our focus is Microsoft 365. That allows us to stay specialized and deliver a clearer, more consistent service for the firms we serve best.

How is MoreMax different from a generic IT company?2026-05-12T21:53:30+00:00

MoreMax is built specifically for law firms, not generic small businesses.

That matters because law firms deal with confidentiality, reputation, deadlines, and client expectations that call for a different mindset. We aim to bring law-firm-aware advice, practical security, and support that makes sense in a legal environment.

Do you really specialize in law firms?2026-05-12T21:58:17+00:00

MoreMax is built primarily for U.S. law firms with 1-25 users that want practical IT support, stronger cybersecurity, and a partner who understands how law firms actually operate.

How does your service support cybersecurity and cyber insurance expectations?2026-05-12T22:00:40+00:00

Our services are designed to help law firms build a stronger security baseline and address many of the practical areas firms are often asked about.

That does not mean “checking boxes” without thought. It means putting the right fundamentals in place so your firm is in a stronger position from both a security and insurability perspective.

Do I really need Business Premium?2026-05-28T22:07:28+00:00
For most law firms, it’s the minimum level that supports a properly secured environment. The difference isn’t obvious upfront, but it matters over time.
What’s the real difference between SharePoint and OneDrive?2026-05-28T22:07:06+00:00
Think of OneDrive as your personal workspace, and SharePoint as your firm’s shared file system. Both have a purpose — they just need to be used intentionally.
Do we need backup if we use Microsoft 365?2026-05-28T22:06:46+00:00
It depends on how you define backup and retention. Many firms benefit from having a clearer, more intentional approach here.
