ATTORNEYS HAVE A DUTY
TO PROTECT CLIENT DATA.
ABA Model Rule 1.6 requires attorneys to make reasonable efforts to prevent the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of client information. This obligation extends to the technology your firm uses — from email and document storage to network security and mobile devices.
The Florida Bar has echoed these requirements, making it clear that attorneys must understand the risks associated with their technology choices and take appropriate steps to safeguard confidential client data. Ignorance of technology is not a defense.
In practical terms, this means your firm needs encrypted email, secure document management, access controls, regular security assessments, and an incident response plan. Simply IT provides all of this — so you can focus on practicing law while we handle the technology safeguards.
Encrypted Communications

A documented plan for responding to data breaches or security incidents, including notification procedures and containment strategies.
