Insight
The IT Landscape for Law Firms in 2025.
According to the 2025 Report on the State of the US Legal Market by Thomson Reuters and Georgetown Law’s Center on Ethics and the Legal Profession, law firms experienced robust financial performance in 2024, with profits per lawyer increasing by 8%. This growth was driven by a 2.6% uptick in demand across various practice areas and higher billing rates.
However, the report cautions that this momentum may not be sustainable, citing potential declines in demand, rising expenses—particularly from investments in technology and AI—and challenges to the traditional billable hour model due to generative AI advancements.
Embracing innovative technologies and solutions is essential to maintain competitiveness and meet evolving client expectations. Opti9 can assist your firm in streamlining back-office operations through tailored cost optimization strategies, enabling you to focus on delivering exceptional legal services to your clients.
Solution
Remote working is here to stay in the legal sector.
Since the pandemic, the legal sector has made a conscientious move to provide employees with more flexibility when it comes to where and when they work. As everything returns to “normal” – firms are still up keeping this practice to retain staff and attract those looking for more flexibility.
Law firms can leverage technology to allow staff to work remotely and securely. Providing hardware such as laptops, keyboards, mice, comfortable chairs, etc, and access to key practice management applications such as LEAP, LawWare, Clio and Eclipse need to be readily available to ensure your team can deliver the best legal service to your clients.

Customer Story
There is no upside to downtime for law firms.
Davis Wright Tremaine (DWT), a prominent law firm managing sensitive client information, recognized the critical need for a robust Disaster Recovery (DR) strategy to safeguard against potential disruptions such as data breaches, network outages, and human error. After facing challenges with previous DRaaS providers, including unsuccessful testing and inadequate support, DWT partnered with Opti9 to develop a comprehensive DR solution tailored to their complex requirements.
Opti9’s solution involved replicating DWT’s data from various global locations to their Tier III-rated NY1 data center, ensuring secure and efficient data management. The partnership provided DWT with a customized Disaster Recovery runbook, outlining automated recovery processes and procedures specific to their applications and workflows. This collaboration has enabled DWT to maintain business continuity, adapt to evolving technological needs, and ensure the protection of their clients’ confidential information.
In selecting Opti9 as our firm’s disaster recovery solution provider, Davis Wright Tremaine was influenced not only by its end-to-end capabilities but by its willingness to offer ongoing support and become integrated with our own technical team. A global firm of DWT’s scale and scope presents unique challenges. Opti9’s expertise lends the assurance that they are sensitive to our DRaaS requirements both today and as a long-term partner as the needs of our production environment and company evolve.
