Why legal practices are targeted

Cybercriminals understand how law firms operate.

They know when settlements occur, how trust transactions work and that clients act quickly when an email appears to come from their solicitor.

 

Business email compromise

Attackers monitor genuine conversations before inserting fraudulent payment instructions at the right moment.

 

Firm impersonation

A similar domain or email address is used to contact clients while pretending to represent your practice.

 

Sensitive client information

Legal files can contain identity documents, bank details, medical records and confidential correspondence.

 

Operational disruption

Compromised accounts, ransomware or unavailable systems can stop your team from accessing files and serving clients.

How the fraud unfolds

The fraudulent email can look completely legitimate.

STEP 01A solicitor or client mailbox is compromised
STEP 02The attacker monitors an active matter
STEP 03Payment instructions are changed
STEP 04Funds are transferred to the attacker

This is not simply an IT problem. It can become a financial, professional and reputational crisis.

The ASD reports that business email compromise with financial loss accounted for 15% of business cybercrime reports in 2024–25. The average self-reported loss for a small business was $56,600. Source: ASD Annual Cyber Threat Report 2024–25.

LAW FIRM CYBER SECURITY EXPERIENCE

Preventative security and incident response across multiple law firms.

We support law firms with preventative cyber security, ongoing security improvements and the investigation, containment and recovery work required after an incident.

A recent NSW matter

After a law firm was targeted through client impersonation and payment fraud, we investigated its email and technology environment, helped contain the incident and worked alongside NSW Police and Lawcover.

We then strengthened the firm’s security to reduce the risk of further targeting.
