Am law 200 firm Sullivan & Worcester progresses with 3E
Am Law 200 law firm Sullivan & Worcester is moving from the on-prem to cloud version of 3E, the market-leading financial and practice management solution from Elite, to support its ambitions for the future.
First established more than eight decades ago, Sullivan & Worcester is a global law firm with approximately 200 lawyers working from its offices in Boston, London, New York, Tel Aviv, and Washington, D.C. The firm’s clients—which include several Fortune 500 companies, leading financial services firms and asset managers, boards of directors, and emerging businesses—rely on Sullivan’s ability to navigate complex legal and operational landscapes, the impeccable judgment of its lawyers, and its commitment to best‑in‑class client service.
Sullivan has been a user of the on-prem version of 3E since 2020, and has increasingly seen the value of making the move wholly into the cloud. The firm wanted to maintain the power and agility of the 3E platform but also benefit from the market-leading security and enhanced flexibility which is offered by the cloud. Now, the firm will have greater insight into its business operations and performance, even more tangible productivity gains and ROI, and security and reliability which lead the industry.
More specifically, 3E in the cloud—which is built on the market-leading Microsoft Azure platform—provides state-of-the-art physical and digital protection of firm data with security practices and processes protected by top security measures, including data isolation, data encryption, inter-process communication, access control, and secure coding and testing.
“3E has been a core technology foundation for our financial and business operations for many years, and we appreciate the role it has played in helping our firm to move forward,” says Geoff Matherson, Chief Financial Officer at Sullivan & Worcester. “Moving to a fully cloud-based model of 3E absolutely was the natural next step for us as we continue to grow and evolve.”
