Common Questions from Chester Law Firms
Do you provide on-site support in Chester?
Yes. We're based in the North West and can arrange on-site support across Chester for critical issues. Standard support is remote (faster for most issues), but when you need someone physically present during a critical completion or court deadline, we're local and can get there.
We already have IT support. Can you work alongside them?
Absolutely - this is our co-managed model. Your existing IT handles day-to-day support. We add the security specialist layer: threat monitoring, conveyancing fraud protection, email security, backup testing, SRA compliance support. Most Chester law firms keep their existing IT relationships and add us for the security expertise they're missing.
How do you protect against conveyancing fraud on high-value transactions?
Multi-layered protection: advanced email security to detect spoofed emails, staff training to recognize social engineering, monitoring for compromised credentials, and secure communication channels. Chester's high-value property market makes you a prime target - you need specialist protection, not just spam filters.
Can you help us meet SRA Standards compliance?
Yes - we're Cyber Essentials certified ourselves and guide Chester law firms through both Cyber Essentials certification and SRA Standards technical requirements. We implement the technical controls, prepare documentation, and support you through assessment. Many PI insurers now require this.
What case management systems do you support?
All of them. Proclaim, Practice Evolve, Leap, Access Legal, Eclipse, BigHand, iManage, NetDocuments - whether cloud-based or on-premise. We ensure they're secure, backed up, and accessible. We don't train you on the software (that's your vendor), but we make sure the infrastructure running it is bulletproof.
