Secure Managed IT Support
for Law Firms

Secure, compliant and reliable IT support is essential for law firms.  

Reliable, compliant IT support built for the way law firms actually work.

Saturday Cloud currently provide numerous law firms across South Wales with specialist managed IT services & cyber security, tailored their needs.

Your SRA obligations are clear

The SRA Code of Conduct for Firms requires you to "identify, monitor and manage all material risks to your business" (Section 2.5). Cyber security is one of those material risks—not an IT nice-to-have. 

Section 4.3 further requires that your managers and employees maintain competence and keep their professional knowledge current. This includes understanding the cyber threats facing your practice. In practical terms: if a ransomware attack locks your case management system or a phishing breach exposes client files, "we didn't know" won't satisfy the SRA. 

Cyber security isn't optional—it's a regulatory requirement.

Cyber Essentials – now mandatory  

From 1st October 2025, Cyber Essentials certification is mandatory for all law firms applying for Criminal Legal Aid contracts in England and Wales. This government-backed scheme focuses on five technical controls: firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection, and patch management.  

The SRA's research shows that firms with Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation are more likely to have effective policies and procedures in place, and have taken practical steps to protect themselves from cyber security incidents. We help firms achieve and maintain Cyber Essentials certification as part of our standard service.  

You didn't train as a solicitor to become a cyber security expert—let us handle the technical requirements while you focus on your clients.

Why managed IT support 

Traditional "break-fix" IT support waits for problems to happen, then charges you to fix them. Equipment fails, security gaps appear, and you're left dealing with emergencies.  

Managed IT support takes a preventative approach. We monitor your systems continuously, patch vulnerabilities before they're exploited, and catch problems before they affect your practice. Our monthly fee covers everything—no surprise invoices when something breaks. 

For legal practices handling privileged client communications, financial records, and time-sensitive deadlines, downtime isn't just inconvenient. It's a regulatory risk and a reputational one. 

Why Saturday Cloud  

Put simply, we understand the specific challenges you face:  

Real threats we’ve stopped

We've intercepted phishing emails targeting solicitors' bank accounts, blocked ransomware attempting to encrypt case files, stopped social engineering phone calls in its tracks, and identified insider threats before they caused damage. We know the attack patterns criminals use against legal practices—and how to defend against them.  

Legal-specific integrations  

We work with the practice management systems you rely on. Whether you're running LEAP or similar, we ensure your case management, time recording, and document management systems remain secure, backed up, and accessible.  

Email encryption & privileged communications

We implement secure email solutions that protect solicitor-client privilege. Your privileged communications need encryption that meets regulatory standards—we make it seamless.  

GDPR compliance for client data 

We help you maintain GDPR compliance for client data with properly configured access controls, audit logs, and data retention policies. When you need to demonstrate compliance to clients or regulators, we provide the documentation.  

24/7 helpdesk support

Real people answer when you call - actual technicians who know your firm and your systems. When a solicitor can't access files before a hearing, minutes matter.
