Which are you?

Your Renewal Form Is a Technical Audit

Guess at your cyber-questionnaire answers and those guesses become the terms of your coverage. We put the real ones in writing first.

Trust Account Isolation
Payment systems separated, with change alerts to the partners on the hook.
Law Society Expectations
Retention and access controls documented so you can show your work.
Matter-File Continuity
Document management and email tested for restore, not assumed.

Written, no obligation, yours to keep.
What Both Have in Common

You Both Hold Client Money and Client Secrets on the Same Network

A trust account and a client tax file are different obligations with the same technical exposure: few staff, broad access to sensitive records, and an email system that authorises money to move. Cyber-liability underwriters have started scrutinising that profile, which is why the renewal questionnaire got longer.

The questions are technical: does multi-factor authentication cover remote access as well as email, when did someone last test and document a backup restore, does endpoint detection reach every device, how many staff hold local administrator rights. No managing partner knows those cold. The answers on that form still become the terms your insurer holds the firm to after a claim.
