Your Client Needs You Now.
Your Systems Should Keep Up.
Managed IT and strategic advisory for criminal defense firms.
Criminal defense work moves fast, often starting the moment a client is arrested, and carries a level of confidentiality that goes beyond ordinary business sensitivity. The technology behind it needs to be just as fast and just as careful.
DP3 understands deadline-driven legal environments. We built our practice supporting law firms where a court filing deadline or a client’s confidentiality isn’t negotiable, and we bring that same discipline to criminal defense.
Body-cam footage, recorded interviews, and forensic evidence files run large and arrive on short notice. We build the storage, security, and mobile access that let you work from the courthouse as easily as your office.

IT Services for Criminal Defense Firms
The same disciplined approach we bring to legal environments, applied to the confidentiality and urgency criminal defense work demands.
Managed IT
Proactive monitoring and support that keeps systems available whenever a new matter starts — not just during business hours.
vCIO Advisory
Strategic technology planning aligned with your firm’s growth — budgeting, vendor evaluation, and roadmaps built for a solo or small-firm reality.
Security & Confidentiality
Encrypted storage and access controls for client files, built around a confidentiality standard higher than typical small-business security.
Projects & Engineering
Large-file evidence storage, secure mobile access setup, and infrastructure sized for video and forensic evidence.
Confidentiality Isn’t a Feature. It’s the Job.
A criminal defense case file often contains the most sensitive information a client will ever share with anyone — and the stakes of that information reaching the wrong person are higher than in almost any other area of practice.
That standard has to hold whether an attorney is in the office, at the courthouse, or meeting a client somewhere else entirely. We build access and security around where the work actually happens, not just around a desk.
Common Questions from Criminal Defense Firms
Questions we hear regularly from firm principals and administrators evaluating managed IT partners.
How does DP3 protect attorney-client confidentiality for criminal defense firms? +
Criminal defense case files carry a level of confidentiality that goes beyond ordinary business sensitivity. DP3 builds access controls, encrypted storage, and secure communication practices specifically around that expectation, not a generic small-business security baseline.
Can DP3 handle large evidence files like body-cam footage and recordings? +
Yes. Video evidence, recorded interviews, and forensic files can run large and arrive with little notice. We build storage and backup infrastructure sized for that reality, so a large file doesn’t become the reason your systems slow down.
Can attorneys access case files securely from the courthouse or on the road? +
Yes. Criminal defense work doesn’t happen only at a desk. We build secure remote and mobile access so attorneys can reach case files from the courthouse or in the field without compromising the confidentiality of the underlying data.
Can DP3 support a firm that needs to move quickly when a client is arrested? +
Criminal defense work often starts on short notice. We build reliable systems and support so opening a new matter, pulling up a client’s history, or reaching a colleague isn’t slowed down by a technology problem at the moment it matters most.
Does DP3 only work with large criminal defense firms? +
No. We’ll make DP3 work for criminal defense firms of nearly any size, including solo and small practices — though firms typically see the most value from managed IT and vCIO advisory once they have 10 or more employees.
Your Case Doesn’t Wait for Business Hours.
Neither should the technology that supports it.
