Legal

Confidential matters deserve an extra layer.

Give confidential communication an added layer of protection. Hold privileged material on your own gateway and let clients, courts and opposing counsel open it with a code, no plugin, no account.

Open message
The challenge

What we hear from teams like yours.

Outside readers won't install plugins

Courts, clients and opposing counsel use whatever email they already have.

Wire fraud targets closings and settlements

Spoofed instructions arrive at exactly the wrong moment.

Privilege and confidentiality

You want control over where sensitive correspondence is stored.

Finding things later

Matters need search, holds and a record of who looked.

How Secure Message helps

Practical protection, clearly licensed.

Code-protected delivery

Matching outbound mail is held and opened in the portal with a one-time code sent to the original recipient.

Professional

Impersonation defense

Anti-phishing and spoof defense alongside SPF, DKIM and DMARC checks.

Professional

Separated eDiscovery

Reading archived content needs a separate permission, re-authentication and a ten-minute grant. Legal hold exempts messages from retention.

Enterprise

On your infrastructure

The gateway, keys and encrypted store live on a host your firm controls.

Every plan
Product visuals

Familiar for staff. Visible for IT.

Staff keep their email client. Administrators get a console that shows what was held and why.

Realistic use cases

A day in the life.

A draft agreement to opposing counsel

Sent with [secure] in the subject; counsel reads it in the portal after entering a code from their inbox.

Closing instructions that “changed”

A lookalike domain fails authentication and lands in quarantine for review.

A litigation hold

On Enterprise, archived messages under legal hold are exempt from retention pruning.

Security considerations

Know the boundaries.

We'd rather you hear the limits from us.

  • The admin message viewer never decrypts; administrators see metadata and verdicts.
  • eDiscovery access is an explicit, audited act, off for everyone by default.
  • Forwarding a portal link doesn't transfer access.
  • Secure Message doesn't give legal advice or guarantee confidentiality obligations are met.
FAQs

Legal Firms questions

Can a court or agency read messages without installing anything?

Yes. With Professional they open a link and enter a one-time code from their existing inbox.

Can our mail administrator read everyone's mail?

Not by default. The ordinary viewer never decrypts, and archive access requires a separate permission that's off for everyone, including superadmins.

Is eDiscovery included in Professional?

No. eDiscovery and archive search are Enterprise features ($1,490/year).

Does it work with our existing email?

Yes. It sits in front of the mail system you already use.
