Case Study: Schoeman Attorneys reduces paper use and strengthens archiving with Mimecast

Schoeman Attorneys reduces paper communication and completes email archive migration in 5 months with Mimecast

Schoeman Attorneys, a boutique law firm in Cape Town, faced the challenge common to smaller legal practices: a heavy reliance on paper-based communication and archiving to meet complex compliance and client confidentiality requirements. Their previous cloud email solution lacked robust archival and eDiscovery tools, making a secure, digital transition seem costly and difficult. To address this, they turned to vendor Mimecast for its Unified Email Management solution.

The solution implemented by Mimecast provided a secure, perpetual cloud archive with granular eDiscovery capabilities and a mobile application for staff access. This allowed Schoeman Attorneys to significantly reduce its need for paper-based communication and streamline internal processes. The firm gained a secure, ISO-certified archive that improved searchability of legacy information and provided a competitive edge in the legal market.
