Cyber insurance for law firms: what insurers ask
Insurers ask about MFA, backups, and patching. We help put those cyber insurance requirements for law firms in place, so the questionnaire matches the office.
This is IT support, not insurance or legal advice.

Meeting cyber insurance requirements for law firms
Cyber insurance requirements for law firms show up as a long questionnaire. Each “yes” is a promise about how the office runs. If the answer and the setup do not match, a claim can get harder.
What’s included
Controls insurers often ask about, and that we put in place:
- MFA on email, remote access, and admin accounts
- Encrypted backups, with one copy offline or locked
- Restore tests with dates you can point to
- Patching for workstations and servers on a schedule
- Endpoint protection on every device
- Email filtering and phishing training for staff
- A written incident response plan
How we start
- Read the questionnaire or renewal form with you
- Check each answer against the real setup
- Fix the gaps before the form goes back
- Keep short notes as proof for the next renewal
Why insurers and ethics rules ask for the same things
The controls on a policy form line up with what ethics guidance expects. ABA Formal Opinion 483 calls for monitoring systems and planning for a breach. CISA’s Cyber Essentials lists the same basics for small organizations. Meeting cyber insurance requirements for law firms usually means doing those basics well. This is an IT view, not legal advice.
Read the form before you sign
Questions about MFA and backups are often more specific than they look. “All remote access” means all of it. We help you answer what is true, and make it true where it is not yet.
