Technology for firms that bill by trust

Solicitors, accountants, financial advisers and consultancies share a technology profile: confidential client data, regulator scrutiny, criminals who target client money, and a brand that lives on credibility. We supply the IT, security and web presence that profile demands, from our base between the professional quarters of Farnham and Guildford.

The three problems we solve for professional firms

1. Email is your biggest risk surface

Payment-diversion fraud, whether a spoofed partner email or an intercepted completion statement, is the most expensive technology failure a client-money firm can suffer. The defence is layered and unglamorous: domain authentication (DMARC, SPF, DKIM), enforced MFA, conditional access, mailbox-rule auditing, and staff who have seen the trick in training before they see it for real. We implement all of it at fixed prices.

2. Confidentiality has to be engineered, not promised

Client files need role-based access, encryption at rest and in transit, retention aligned to your regulator's expectations, and leaver processes that revoke access the day someone departs. We build these controls and hand your compliance officer the evidence trail, which professional-indemnity insurers increasingly demand at renewal.

3. Your website is a referral checker, and it can be more

Every referral checks you online before calling. A dated site quietly costs work no report ever itemises. We build fast, credible sites from £1,500 that publish real expertise under named professionals, the strongest trust signal a firm has, and with local SEO they compete for the searches that carry actual intent.

How firms typically start

• The free security health check: a written gap summary of your M365 setup, MFA coverage and email authentication. Most firms find at least one uncomfortable surprise.
• Per-user IT support: £30 to £50 per user per month with confidentiality-first practice.
• A website rebuild: from £1,500 fixed, designed to the standard your fee structure implies.

Frequently asked questions

Do you understand our regulatory environment?

We implement the technology controls regulated firms need (confidentiality, retention, encrypted communication, access logging) and produce evidence for your compliance officer. Interpretation of SRA, FCA or ICAEW rules stays with your compliance function. Making the technology match it is our job.

Our biggest fear is email fraud. Can you fix that?

Payment-diversion fraud is the sharpest technology risk client-money firms face. We harden the whole path: DMARC, SPF and DKIM so your domain cannot be convincingly spoofed, mailbox rules audits, MFA everywhere, and staff training with simulated phishing. None of it is exotic. All of it needs doing properly.

What does IT support cost for a 15-person practice?

£450 to £750 per month depending on tier (£30 or £50 per user), fixed and known in advance. That is usually less than one recovered fee-earner hour per week.

Can you make our website generate work rather than just exist?

Yes, that is the point of it. Professional-services sites we build lead with the questions clients actually search for, publish real expertise under named authors, and make the first contact frictionless. Combined with local SEO, "solicitor near me" and its variants are winnable.
