How we help Attorneys and Law Firms?

Escalating identity theft and fraud schemes are leading to unprecedented exposure

A law firm is exposed to the vulnerability of ID Fraud more than the medical profession according to recent statistics. The main reason is the ramifications of creating a false account and the damages that could be done to an individual. For example, many individuals can go into a law firm and have a trust, will or corporation prepared and never be confirmed as who they really are. This misrepresentation of the individual can then be construed and falsified trusts and wills could be established in the victim’s name; while all the assets going to the thief or an associate.

According to research done by Synovate, approximately 7% of ID Fraud victims said that they contacted or were contacted by a lawyer where an account was opened in their name or where an existing account was misused. This means that approximately there were over 700,000 cases in which a lawyer services were used in a fraudulent manner.  Whilst the instance of actual ID Theft does not appear to happen often at a law office, the instances of ID Fraud, the effect of ID Theft is rampant.  If you have 1000 clients who use your firms services, the odds are that you have provided 3 ID Fraudsters with services.
