Every law firm employee knows that when trouble strikes, those working in the IT department can be your very best friend. Not sure why your remote access won’t turn on? Call IT. Can’t get Teams to work properly? Call IT. Having a problem reformatting your email signature? Call IT.
Or maybe don’t….

Let this be a reminder to keep your friends close, and the IT department closer — but maybe not this close.
