Keep every matter file secure and your firm on the right side of the Florida Bar’s technology rules.
A breach at a law firm is not just a data problem, it is a privilege problem: a leaked matter file can trigger a malpractice claim, a bar complaint, or a conflict check that suddenly cannot be trusted, none of which a generic antivirus tool was ever built to prevent.
We restrict access to matter files by who is actually staffed on that matter, encrypt everything end to end, and build our work around the Florida Bar’s technology competence duty, so your partners never have to explain a gap during a bar inquiry.
Restrict matter files to only the attorneys actually staffed on them.
Encrypt every client file, from intake through matter closure.
Support eDiscovery requests without derailing your billable hours.
Back up case files so a lost laptop never means a lost matter.
Secure client communication so privilege never travels through an open channel.
Verify conflict-check systems stay accurate as staffing changes.
Recognize a phishing email disguised as a client before anyone clicks it.
A law firm runs on trust, and trust depends entirely on privilege staying intact from the first phone call to the final filing. We build access controls, encryption, and backup around how a matter actually moves through your firm.
Access to a matter’s files is tied to who is actually staffed on it, and gets revoked automatically the moment someone rolls off, instead of permissions nobody remembers to remove.
Client communication and case files stay encrypted both in transit and at rest, so a lost laptop or an intercepted email never becomes a privilege problem you have to explain.
We keep your conflict-check database synced as staffing and client rosters change, so a new matter gets checked against accurate information instead of a list that is out of date.
Staff get trained specifically on the wire fraud scam that targets law firms: a spoofed email with fake closing instructions, timed to arrive when a client expects to send funds.





Every attorney at your firm carries a duty to understand the technology they use well enough to keep client information safe, not just avoid an obvious mistake. In practice, that means someone has to actually configure the encryption, lock down the access controls, and keep records proving the work was done, rather than leaving competence as an assumption nobody has tested. That is the part we take off your partners’ plate.
Technology competence is not an abstract standard, it shows up in specific, checkable practices your firm either has in place or does not. We build those practices directly into your everyday IT, whether your firm has one attorney or fifty, so the duty gets satisfied through normal operations instead of a special project.
Laptops, phones, and files tied to an active matter all get locked down.
Client communication happens through channels that protect privilege by design.
Your compliance documentation stays ready for a bar inquiry at any time.
A conflict of interest is not just a business risk, it is an ethical one, and it starts with who can actually see a matter’s files. We configure access so only attorneys and staff genuinely assigned to a matter can open its documents, and that access gets removed automatically the moment someone rolls off, rather than lingering as a permission nobody remembers to revoke months or years later.
Confidentiality breaks down quietly, usually through an old permission nobody thought to remove rather than a dramatic hack. We build access control around your actual matter roster, so the technical setup matches the ethical wall your firm is already required to maintain between matters and between staff.
We tie file access directly to your actual matter staffing today.
Departing staff lose access to every matter the same day they leave.
Ethical walls between matters get enforced technically, not just on paper.
A discovery request rarely arrives with a convenient deadline, and pulling emails, documents, and metadata from scattered systems under time pressure is exactly the kind of work generalist IT support was not built for. We help preserve, collect, and export the data a discovery request actually calls for, in a defensible format, without your associates spending billable hours becoming amateur forensic technicians in the middle of active litigation.
Litigation deadlines do not pause for a technology problem, so we treat a discovery request as urgent from the moment it lands. Preservation happens first, before anything gets touched, and collection follows a process that holds up if opposing counsel ever questions how the data was gathered.
We preserve relevant data immediately once a discovery request arrives.
Email and document collection follows a defensible, repeatable process.
Your associates stay focused on the case, not on data exports.
Law firms partner with us because we treat privilege and confidentiality as the actual point of the work, not a compliance checkbox added after the fact to a generic small business IT package built for a completely different kind of client.
Insurance-Ready Documents
Cyber and malpractice insurance renewals increasingly require a security questionnaire most firms cannot answer without real help. We keep documentation of your controls current and ready to hand over, so renewal season is not a scramble.
Built For Firms Like Yours
Ace Tech Systems was founded specifically to serve law firms and registered investment advisers, not built as a generalist IT company that only added legal clients later as an afterthought once that opportunity finally looked obvious.
Fast Turnaround, Always
We know your time bills by the hour, so a support request from your firm gets answered with that urgency in mind, instead of sitting in a queue behind a client whose time is not billable.
No Learning Curve Needed
You never have to explain what a matter is, why a conflict check matters, or why privilege changes how a file gets handled, since we already know that vocabulary before our very first call with you.
Yes. Access to a matter’s files is tied to who is actually staffed on it, so an attorney or paralegal not assigned to a case cannot open its documents, and that restriction updates automatically as staffing changes.
We monitor for spoofed emails and lookalike domains, and we train your staff on the specific pattern these scams follow: a message that looks like it is from a client, timed around a closing, asking for last-minute wire instructions.
Your existing conflict-check system stays in place. We integrate around it rather than replacing it, and make sure the data feeding it stays accurate as your staffing and client roster change over time.
Yes, though the timeline depends on how much data needs to be preserved and collected. We prioritize discovery requests as urgent the moment they arrive, since litigation deadlines do not wait for a convenient time.
