The firm utilizes a hybrid network system whereby a dominant NT Server controls a servient Novell server. Each of these servers are used in such a way as to allow the firm to utilize the most beneficial aspects of each type of server. Both servers are equipped with mirrored drives and regular backup schedules. The firm currently utilizes communication servers, and all attorneys in the firm are able to remotely access the system from home, and elsewhere. All systems within the firm have access to fax service and highspeed print service, including color.
All systems are secure and utilize passwords in order to assure protection of client information.
Within the firm, certain users also are licensed with Microsoft Office 97 and Lotus Millennium Suite. All users have both capabilities. We use Outlook 98 for e-mail and calendaring needs. The firm has encryption capabilities for more sensitive matters. Because of our commitment to technology, our firm has hired a full time Information Systems Manager who is a Microsoft Certified Professional.
