Cloud Services
Legal Reimagined: Connecting your Customers, People and Data for Secure Scalable Growth
Cloud computing is revolutionising the way law firms operate by enabling remote access and storage of files, which enhances workplace efficiency and flexibility. With cloud-based software, law practice management processes are streamlined by unifying client data, document management and collaborative tools in one platform. For many firms, cloud drives better insights, supports data-informed decision-making, enables modern collaboration and improves client services, making firms more competitive in today’s legal market.
Many legal firms are using technology to improve client and employee experiences, recognising that their firms will be left behind if they fail to capitalise on technological innovations and embed them throughout their operations.
While knowledge-intensive businesses like law firms often have a cultural propensity toward following precedent, making it difficult to innovate, there is a noticeable shift in the legal industry driven by demands from lawyers and clients for smarter ways of working through capabilities such as automation, analytics and zero-entry data solutions.
Cloud is where innovation will happen most quickly. While some firms are looking to hybrid cloud environments to optimise cost effectiveness and increase flexibility, cloud-based technologies represent the future, enabling more rapid innovation and easier scaling.
As a leading cloud partner, SCC will help you uncover these benefits and help you foster a culture of innovation, one that drives forward success of your business, underpinned by technology.
It’s no secret that technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate, so much so that some firms are finding it hard to keep up due to a shortage of skills in the industry. In the past, hiring a team of cloud engineers was once enough, today IT teams should bring new skills, insights and ideas to support sustainable business growth underpinned by technology.
Advanced skills are expensive and hard to come by, leading some law firms to look for a cloud partner that can help them achieve their cloud ambitions, without the hefty price tag. Our suite of cloud managed services is underpinned by our proprietary intellectual property and highly trained experts, allowing you to tap into a wide range of cloud skills, supporting your cloud initiatives now, and in the future.
Whether you’re looking for a partner to manage your environment, so you don’t have to, or you want a more customised managed service across different elements of your cloud environment including observability, cost management, application support, database management and more, we’ve got you covered.
To get and stay ahead law firms depend on extracting the value from their data to enhance operational efficiencies, improve client services and gain insights that lead to better decision making and competitive advantage. The effective use of data can transform law firms to provide greater value to their clients while optimising their internal processes.
SCC are experts in helping legal firms drive the value from their data utilising cloud-based data, analytics and database solutions. We can help you leverage data analytics and visualisation solutions to track business performance, reduce costs and make faster decisions.

Browne Jacobson are a leading full-service law firm working across business and society. Browne Jacobson provide top tier advice to support the health, education and broader Government sectors. Browne Jacobson were looking for a Data and AI partner to help them socialise a secure generative AI (GenAI) tool across their organisation.
Browne Jacobson recognised that GenAI was becoming more important for its clients and they therefore needed the ability not just to give advice around the technology, but also to empower its team of lawyers to understand it for themselves. The most effective way to do that was to build a secure, in-house tool that the team could use to build first hand knowledge of the technology.
SCC quickly understood their aims and what needed to be done to deliver the solution Browne Jacobson had in mind. SCC helped Browne Jacobson build JAC, a GenAI tool built on Microsoft Azure using Azure OpenAI technology. The law firm was particularly proactive in rolling out an adoption and socialisation programme to ensure all users had access to the tool and understood its capabilities.
The collaboration with SCC not only highlights the seamless cultural alignment between the two organisations but also underscores the significance of secure, in-house tools in enhancing productivity and client service. The successful rollout of JAC across Browne Jacobson demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to adopting and socialising technology, ensuring lawyers can confidently deliver value to clients in discussions about GenAI. This initiative serves as an inspirational blueprint for other firms aiming to integrate cutting-edge technologies into their practice, fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation.
The project has been a great success across the firm and delivered on the outcomes Browne Jacobson set out to achieve. After a successful adoption plan across the firm, there is now widely felt confidence in using the tool meaning that lawyers can directly deliver value to their customers when talking about GenAI.
“Working with SCC, we were really at home. We felt like we had a similar culture in a way that we approached the problem and very quickly we understood what needed to be done. There was a really good conversation about how practically we could take that forward to deliver the solution against the goals we had.”
