Solution: Security / Mobility

Long working days are pretty much the norm in the legal profession. However the demand for remote and mobile
working from employees is definitely on the rise in line with a growing trend towards gaining some semblance of
a ‘work/life balance’.

From an employer’s perspective, too, there is a financial argument to be made in the context of recruitment and staff retention increased productivity, competitive edge and better client service, all of which leads to improved profitability. For a legal firm to ‘go mobile’, the key issue that must be addressed is that of IT security. Law firms hold very confidential information that if leaked could change the complexion of lawsuits.
