Growing Law Firm Reduces Technology Spending While Maintaining Growth and Productivity—A Case Study

Grotta, Glassman & Hoffman, P.C. (GG&H) is one of the oldest and largest boutique law firms in the United States. The firm’s 70 full-time attorneys represent management in all areas of labor relations law, employment law, employee benefits, and immigration law. The firm has offices in New Jersey, New York, California and Nevada.

The Challenge: Support Expansion While Minimizing IT Costs

For four decades, the attorneys at GG&H have been recognized as leaders in the practice of labor and employment law. To meet the needs of the firm’s clients, GG&H opened several new offices across the United States. With this geographic expansion, it became more challenging to maintain the IT infrastructure from the firm’s headquarters in New Jersey. “We couldn’t provide each office with IT staff due to the cost, so demands on my team’s time were growing exponentially,” explained Roger Schechter, the firm’s director of technology.

The IT team in Roseland, New Jersey, needed fast and cost-effective technologies to enable remote access to workstations and provide remote technical support to employees in California, Nevada and New York. Furthermore, with more employees communicating with distant clients, the firm needed an easy-to-use technology for online seminars. To avoid the need for on-site IT staff at the remote offices, these solutions needed to be simple to deploy and easy to maintain.
