Technology Infrastructure

We invest in robust networks and best-in-class servers, desktops and laptops in order to ensure reliability and redundancy. We are able to share information with colleagues and clients around the globe by phone and laptop. Attorneys receive electronic fax deliveries. We access our systems remotely and can work anywhere with Wi-Fi access. The virtualization of key systems, combined with the use of Akula & Associates networks, provide reliable, redundant and consistent technology throughout our locations and around the globe.

Our offices are connected by internal conference bridges. Using video conferencing we are able to reduce travel time by conducting multi-party videoconference meetings, witness and expert interviews, depositions and case management.

Client Access

We provide secure extranet links between the firm and clients to facilitate the exchange of information in real time.

Extranets for Data Sharing with Clients: Our secure, simple to use, browser-based file sharing systems provide a reliable platform for sharing files or transferring data.

Client Specific Extranets: Many corporate clients look to us to manage their immigration, trademark and patent inventories. We do so using cloud technology applications. These browser based cloud applications provide our clients with secure access to a wide variety of information specific to their needs, including reference material, work product and status updates.

Litigation Tools

EDiscovery: eDiscovery related litigation support technology has been one of the hottest growth areas in the legal arena. This has been in response to growth in the size of electronic document collections at play in modern litigation. We address this through strategic partnerships with service providers, which allow us to respond to cases of any size or complexity.

Litigation Technology Tools: Our litigators and staff are trained in the use of an array of litigation management tools, designed to provide reliable analysis and presentation of case data and graphics

Knowledge management

In order to maximize the collective experience of our lawyers, we have developed important management systems and tools designed to provide maximum efficiency.
