BACKGROUND

The $1.2B legal compliance problem.

Professionals in the legal industry conduct countless, mobile interactions with support staff and clients on a daily basis. However, for management and IT leaders of a law firm, today’s communication tools and solutions may lead to gaps in legal compliance requirements with FTC regulations, TCPA, GDPR, Dodd-Frank and more.

Some organizations add compliance and risk management policies atop a complicated tech stack while others may try to manage by policy alone, banning certain common behaviors like texting or third-party app use. But it’s nearly impossible to monitor all employee behavior, catch every mistake and keep up with ever-changing regulatory needs.
