Why this checklist matters
Choosing a Managed IT Service Provider is a critical decision for any solicitor firm.
Beyond day-to-day efficiency, the right provider must protect client confidentiality, reduce regulatory risk, and support the smooth running of your practice across all departments – from conveyancing and family law, to litigation, employment, and corporate services.
Our IT RFP Checklist for Solicitor Firms is designed to give senior partners, practice managers and operations teams a structured framework to evaluate potential providers for an IT support solution for law firms.

General good practice IT requirements for successful solicitor firms
It addresses areas such as:

Cybersecurity controls (MFA, phishing protection, penetration testing)
Client and case management system security
Governance, reporting, and supplier oversight
Best practice in day-to-day IT operations for growing law firms
Who this is for
This checklist is particularly relevant to solicitor firms of 50–250 users, including those with dedicated practice areas in:
Conveyancing
Litigation
Family law
Employment law
