Legal Case Study
Constituting a law firm out of whole cloth doesn’t have to be difficult,
when you have a trusted IT provider you can call on
The Situation
Near the end of 2020, a mid-sized San Diego law firm was splitting up. As employees began to leave for other organizations, a group coalesced that decided to take things in a new and exciting direction—building out a firm of their own. As Kazmarek Technology Solutions was already assisting with the dissolution of the existing firm, maintaining continuity in support of the new venture seemed like a natural fit.
Our Process
1
Start with a blank canvas
Constituting a law firm out of whole cloth is a substantial undertaking. We knew the needs of the firm, and had spent years avoiding potential pitfalls. We created a Microsoft 365 tenant, and helped secure a domain name.
2
Add in the detail
Next, KTS helped fill the need for office space, assisting with the move and procuring needed networking equipment, including VPN capabilities that allowed the team the flexibility to work from wherever they chose. This idea carried over into the selection and configuration of a cloud-hosted phone system, allowing the firm to remain in touch anywhere with an internet connection.
3
Fill in any gaps
Since KTS was engaged from the beginning, environmental security figured into any infrastructure decision. We deployed next-gen antivirus and implemented multi-factor authentication for their M365 tenant and VPN. A password manager was also configured to minimize the risk of credential compromise.
The Results
A great deal is required to setup a new legal practice from scratch, especially when cyber-security compliance and best-practices are taken into account—which is absolutely imperative. Should you find yourself or your organization in a similar situation, be sure to engage a trusted IT partner to guide you through the process and ensure that your environment is secure.
What Our Customers Are Saying
“We’ve been using Kazmarek for at least 15 years and have always been extremely satisfied with the service we receive. We use them for IT purchases, installations, migrations, upgrades, and service desk. Their team is always responsive and technically capable. We couldn’t be happier and have never had a reason to look elsewhere.”
Erik
Owner, Electrical Supply
“After being disappointed by the support we received from a national provider we were looking for a local San Diego IT provider to partner with. We could not be happier with our decision to engage KTS. They are swift, attentive, and collaborative with our IT needs. Their engineers, support desk, and managers are patient and able to effectively communicate issues and solutions to a layperson which speaks volumes about their hiring and customer service-minded culture.”
Carrie
Project Manager, Manufacturing
“I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Kazmarek team through the years! They are responsive and have a great team to work with, whether it’s day-to-day IT needs or special
projects.”
KC
HR Director, Sports Virtualization Hardware
“Kazmarek is fantastic! I’ve used every size IT company over the past 20 years, and Kazmarek is superior to all of them. We are extremely happy with their service and expertise. One of the things I like most about is that they not only have engineers available to respond to our prioritized needs, but they also have a management escalation plan in place if we feel that responses are too slow. They listen to our needs, are responsive, solution-minded, and speak in a layman’s terms. “
Marisa
Partner, Law Firm
“Both the technicians and all of the support staff at KTS are always friendly, always professional, and always get the job done. We are a small business but are treated with the same excellent service and attention I would expect for a larger account. Earlier this year, they helped us through a website migration and another tricky technical update. The whole team made sure communication was clear and went out of their way to research potential problem points.”
Kim M
Executive Assistant, PR and Marking
“We have been working with Danny and his team at KTS for more than 10 years. They are very responsive and have made us a better organization. Along the way, we successfully migrated our infrastructure to the cloud. They are a class organization and have always taken care of our people and technology.”
John
President, Lease Accounting Services
“We’re building a solid IT foundation to be able to go where we need to be for growth and success. I couldn’t be more pleased with KTS’s performance and progress on our IT Projects. ”
