📉 The Hidden Cost of “Cheap” IT

Choosing a budget IT provider might look like a win on paper. If a law firm saves $50 per month per user, it feels like smart cost-cutting.

But what most firms do not realize is that “cheap IT” often comes with a hidden expense that hits much harder than the invoice.

Lost productivity.

And in a law firm, lost productivity means one thing: lost billable revenue.

If an attorney billing $350/hour loses just 2 hours a month due to slow systems, login issues, glitches, or recurring support delays, the math is brutal:

$350/hour x 2 hours = $700 lost per attorney, per month.

That is not an IT problem. That is a revenue problem.

And it is exactly why the right MSP does not cost your firm money, it protects it.
