Tenant security, migrations, iManage and practice-tool integrations, and day-to-day administration — the platform your firm runs on, run properly.
Microsoft 365 management is the ongoing administration and security of your firm's Microsoft cloud — Exchange email, SharePoint and OneDrive, Teams, Entra ID identity, and the security stack that protects them. A default tenant is configured for convenience, not confidentiality; management means hardening it to a real baseline, keeping licenses right-sized, and making the platform work with the tools your practice actually runs on — document management like iManage, practice management, and accounting systems.
nicwerks® manages Microsoft 365 for Los Angeles law firms, financial practices, and entertainment companies — and handles the migrations in between: email platform moves, SharePoint restructures, and document-management transitions, validated file by file.
MFA everywhere, conditional access, anti-phishing policies, external-sharing controls — your tenant configured to a security baseline, not factory defaults.
Email, SharePoint, and document-management moves planned library by library and validated against the source — your team keeps working the whole way through.
Document management, practice management, and accounting tools connected to Microsoft 365 cleanly — with admin and client data properly separated.
Entra ID done right: least-privilege access, clean on/offboarding, and no ex-employee accounts lingering with access to client files.
The right Microsoft plans for each seat — most firms we review are paying for licenses they don't use or missing security features they already own.
Mailbox changes, sharing questions, Teams setup, new-hire provisioning — handled by an engineer who knows your tenant, usually same-day.
When a Beverly Hills entertainment law firm outgrew SharePoint document libraries, nicwerks planned and ran the move to iManage — transferring libraries one at a time, validating every folder against the source, and keeping the firm's admin and client databases cleanly separated. Attorneys kept working the whole way through, and the firm's Microsoft 365 tenant stayed the backbone for email, Teams, and identity.
That's the standard for cloud work at a firm: no lost files, no downtime headlines, and a platform that's more secure after the project than before it.
A firm running (or moving to) Microsoft 365 that suspects its tenant was never properly secured; a practice planning an email, SharePoint, or document-management migration; or a team whose Microsoft licensing has never been reviewed.
Your firm is committed to Google Workspace as its core platform (we're Microsoft-focused because our clients' industries are), or you need custom application development — we configure, integrate, and secure platforms rather than build software.
The platform is — the default configuration isn't. Out of the box, tenants often lack enforced MFA, conditional access, and sensible sharing controls. Properly hardened, Microsoft 365 meets the confidentiality bar law and financial firms need.
Not if it's planned right. We move data in validated stages while the team keeps working on the live system, and cut over at low-impact windows. Our benchmark engagement — a full SharePoint-to-iManage move — had attorneys working throughout.
Not in the way most people assume. Retention policies aren't a true backup — Microsoft's shared-responsibility model leaves your data's recoverability to you. We pair tenants with third-party backup; see our backup & disaster recovery service.
Yes — iManage migration, integration with Microsoft 365, Threat Manager monitoring, new-hire onboarding, and ongoing support. It's one of our core competencies for law-firm clients.
