Law firms handle some of the most sensitive documents in any profession: privileged attorney-client communications, litigation strategy, settlement terms, witness statements, contracts and court filings. A breach of these documents can result in malpractice claims, sanctions and destroyed client trust.
Why Standard Tools Fail for Legal
- Email: not encrypted end-to-end. Attachments persist in inboxes indefinitely. Accidental "reply all" or forwarding exposes privileged documents
- Cloud storage: Google Drive and Dropbox hold encryption keys. Their employees can access files. Subpoenas can compel production of stored documents
- Client portals: require client accounts. Many clients resist creating yet another login
Secure Document Sharing for Attorneys
- Upload case documents at easysend.co with end-to-end encryption enabled
- Set a strong password (12+ characters)
- Email the link to the client or opposing counsel
- Share the password by phone (never in the same email)
- Files auto-expire after 3 days, limiting exposure window
Attorney-Client Privilege Protection
With zero-knowledge encryption, the file sharing service cannot read privileged documents. Even if the server is subpoenaed, only encrypted data exists. The encryption key is derived from the password which only you and your client know.
Common Legal Use Cases
- Sharing case files and evidence with co-counsel
- Delivering contracts and agreements to clients for review
- Exchanging discovery documents with opposing counsel
- Sending court filings and exhibits to the courthouse
- Sharing settlement proposals between parties
