Case Study: Schonbuch Hallissy LLP

Building a Secure, Modern Legal Practice on a Solid IT Foundation

Overview

Schonbuch Hallissy LLP is a California-based law firm built on a legacy of excellence from its predecessor, Daniels, Fine, Israel & Lebovits LLP. When the firm transitioned under new leadership, they needed an IT foundation that would evolve with their new identity and practice goals.

L3 Networks has been their trusted partner since 2011, providing complete technology management, from network infrastructure and hosted systems to cybersecurity, compliance, and day-to-day support.

The Challenge

Creating a Modern, Compliant, and Always-Available IT Environment

As the firm restructured and rebranded, its partners needed a technology environment that could support modern workflows, client data security, and the unique compliance requirements of the legal industry.

The challenge was to maintain seamless operations during the transition while upgrading legacy systems, consolidating data, and preparing for the adoption of a new cloud-based case management platform.

The Solution

Comprehensive IT Partnership and Modernization

L3 Networks delivered a fully managed IT environment designed for performance, security, and reliability.

Key initiatives included:

• Infrastructure & Connectivity – Design, deployment, and management of the firm's complete network environment, including dedicated internet circuits and data center hosting at Equinix for critical systems and file storage.

• Cloud Enablement – Guided migration to the Litify legal management platform, ensuring seamless integration between cloud services and on-premises resources.

• Helpdesk & User Support – Enterprise-grade helpdesk and device management under our AI-Enhanced help desk model, providing responsive, 24/7 end-user support.

• Cybersecurity & Compliance – Implementation of multi-layered security across endpoints and network infrastructure, with ongoing monitoring, compliance documentation, and vendor coordination to meet client and insurer requirements.

By centralizing responsibility under one partner, the firm benefits from cohesive management, faster issue resolution, and continuous technology alignment with its business objectives.
