Questions we get asked
6 answers covering security, compliance, pricing, and response times for legal & professional services.
Yes. Outsource IT Computing Inc. is an official technology partner of the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association (OTLA), specializing in managed IT services and cyber security for legal professionals across Ontario. OTLA member firms work with a provider that has already been vetted by the legal community, understands Law Society of Ontario obligations, and supports the practice-management, document-management, and litigation software plaintiff firms rely on every day.
OTLA member firms get pre-vetted managed IT and cyber security built for litigation practices: 24/7 monitoring and help desk, encrypted and tested backups, phishing and ransomware defence, secure remote and courthouse access, support for PCLaw, Primafact, Teraview, The Conveyancer, DivorceMate, and Equitrac, plus documented Law Society compliance evidence and a written incident-response plan. Pricing is per user per month, from $40 to $309 depending on the tier.
Lawyers must protect client confidentiality, keep required records available and legible for the retention periods in By-Law 9, supervise staff and vendors handling client data, and take reasonable steps to secure electronic communications. In practice that means encryption, access control, audit logs, retained backups, and a written incident-response plan.
Yes. We support Clio, PCLaw, Ghost Practice, Soluno, Amicus, Worldox, and iManage environments, including single sign-on, secure document storage, integrations with Microsoft 365, and migrations between platforms.
By-Law 9 sets a minimum of 10 years for financial records, and many firms retain client files far longer based on limitation periods and matter type. We size backup and archive retention around your written file-retention policy rather than a generic 30-day default.
Business email compromise targeting trust funds is the top financial risk for Ontario firms. Controls include MFA everywhere, impersonation and lookalike-domain protection, mailbox-rule alerting, banking-detail verification by phone using a known number, and staff training built around real transaction scenarios.
