Court deadlines do not move because your network is down. Hearings do not wait because an attorney cannot connect remotely. Clients do not care that a file server is having a bad day.

For law firms, the real problem with slow IT support is that the clock keeps moving while the technology does not.

That changes what “responsive” should mean.

A quick acknowledgement is not enough if the person who can actually solve the problem does not get involved until hours later. What matters is whether someone understands the urgency, takes ownership, and starts working toward a resolution while the issue is still manageable.

Legal teams already work against enough deadlines.

Their IT support should not become another one.

As LACBA’s Official IT Partner, IT Support LA helps firms get the responsive, law-firm-focused support they need to keep work moving.

🚨 Jury Duty Scam Alert

The Superior Court of Los Angeles County is warning residents about a reported jury duty scam involving callers who falsely claim that someone missed jury service and has an outstanding warrant.

⚠️ Remember: The Court will never threaten arrest, demand immediate payment, or request Social Security numbers, credit card details, or bank information by phone or email.

If you receive a suspicious jury-related message, do not provide personal information, make payments, click links, or respond. Verify your jury service status through official Court resources.

Help spread the word and protect yourself and others from jury duty scams.
