Attorney-Client Privilege
Extends to Your Network.
Your clients trust you with their secrets. We make sure your systems keep them. Encrypted case files, wire-fraud defense on every closing, and 24/7 monitoring built around Clio, Filevine, MyCase, NetDocuments, and the way a firm actually runs.
The Duty
Confidentiality Isn't a Feature. It's Your License.
requires "reasonable efforts to prevent the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of, or unauthorized access to, information relating to the representation of a client."
increasingly treat unencrypted client communications and untested backups as failures of professional duty.
now deny claims when MFA and documented controls are missing. The firm is left holding the loss.
"Reasonable efforts" is a moving standard, and unmanaged IT stopped meeting it years ago. We put your safeguards in writing and keep them current. When the bar or your carrier asks, you have an answer.
Practice-Area Protection
Every Practice Gets Attacked Differently
Scroll through how we defend each one.
Personal Injury
Ideal FitThe Exposure
Medical records, demand packages, and settlement figures make PI firms a ransomware jackpot, and every hour of downtime is an intake call that signs elsewhere.
Our Protection
HIPAA-grade handling for client medical records, encrypted intake, protected settlement communications, and documented safeguards your cyber insurer will actually accept.
Litigation & Trial
The Exposure
Discovery databases and privileged work product are prime targets, and a platform outage mid-production means motions for extension and explanations to the judge.
Our Protection
Case files locked to the attorneys on the matter, with full audit trails that hold up under scrutiny.
Family & Estate
The Exposure
Financial disclosures, custody evaluations, and estate documents attract targeted extortion.
Our Protection
Encrypted document exchange with clients, secured e-filing, and instant lockout when staff changes.
Real Estate & Transactional
The Exposure
Closing-day wire fraud is the single most expensive email attack in legal practice.
Our Protection
Email authentication at the bank-grade level, verification on every change to wiring instructions, and monitoring on every mailbox that touches a closing.
What Firms Fight Daily
The Three Pressures on Every Practice
Confidentiality
Rule 1.6 makes protecting client information an ethical duty, not an IT preference. A breach means notification letters and a possible grievance.
Billable Hours
Downtime is unbilled time plus missed deadlines. The docket does not care that the server was down.
Mobile Access
Case files from the courtroom, the deposition, and the kitchen table, without leaving privilege behind.
Common Threats We Neutralize
- Wire Fraud (Real Estate Closing)
- Case File Espionage
- Email Compromise
Standards We Align To
Sensitive case files are locked to only the attorneys working the matter. Email encryption lets you serve documents digitally without breaking privilege.
Why Firms Choose Datafying
Built for the Way Firms Work
Your clients trust you with their secrets; you can trust us to keep them digital. This is law firm IT support built for how firms work: encrypted communications, secured document management, priced flat, answered by humans, and never a drag on a billable hour.
Do you understand attorney-client privilege obligations?
Yes. It is the center of how we design for firms. Access to case files is locked to the attorneys working the matter, communications are encrypted end-to-end, and every control maps to ABA Model Rule 1.6 "reasonable efforts" language so your safeguards are defensible in front of the bar and your carrier.
Can you protect us from closing-day wire fraud?
Wire fraud via compromised email is the most expensive attack in legal practice. We deploy bank-grade email authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC enforcement), monitoring on every mailbox that touches a closing, and verification workflows so a spoofed "updated wiring instructions" email gets caught before money moves.
What about our practice management software?
We support and secure the platforms firms actually run: Clio, MyCase, Filevine, NetDocuments, and traditional on-prem document management. We handle updates, access control, and encrypted backups around whatever your practice uses.
Half our office shares logins. Is that really a problem?
It is the first thing we fix. Shared logins mean no audit trail, no way to cut off a departed employee, and an insurance application you can't sign honestly. We give every person their own access, scoped to their matters, in the first week.
Our PI firm holds client medical records. Is that HIPAA?
As a business associate handling medical records, PI firms face HIPAA-adjacent obligations plus state privacy laws. We implement HIPAA-grade controls: encryption at rest and in transit, access logging, and breach-response planning. Client medical files are handled to the same standard a covered entity would use.
How fast can you respond if something goes wrong mid-trial?
Emergency issues get a 1-hour response, guaranteed in writing. Our team monitors 24/7/365, and automatic isolation stops threats in seconds, before they can touch the case files you need in court tomorrow.
