Stop Using Email to Manage Your Most Important 

Most law firms rely on Microsoft, iManage, and DocuSign, but they still lack a true digital client relationship layer. That’s why critical workflows fall back to email, exposing your firm to time leakage, security blind spots, and identity gaps.

Bridge the Gaps in Your Current Stack

 
While your internal systems are reliable and provide you with strong individual solutions, they have gaps in between that Trust Circle is made to bridge.
iManage

It excels at internal records but fails as a client collaboration workflow. Sharing and version control inevitably devolve into exports, links, and unsecure threads.

Email and Attachments

They create uncontrolled forwarding and unclear access, generating uncomfortable cross-border governance questions for compliance teams.

DocuSign

It captures signatures but cannot verify who is truly behind the screen during the drafting and negotiation phase.

Unify Your Legal Stack and Bridge the Gaps

Trust Circle sits on top of your existing stack to bridge the gap on the client side. We unify identity verification, secure sharing, and qualified signing into a single, client-facing workspace.

Onboarding and Regulated Identity Provisioning

Manual ID collection via email exposes your firm to data risks and high administrative friction.

✅ We verify clients once using mobile-first biometric security measures, allowing them to reuse that verified credential for immediate AML/KYC compliance across every matter.

Identity Setup and Access Management

Heavy identity management systems rarely work for external users, leaving you unsure of who is actually behind the screen.

✅ We enable you to invite a client in 30 seconds, establishing a single verified identity that works seamlessly across every jurisdiction and access point.



Client Portal Workflow

Critical requests and status updates get buried in unstructured email threads, creating unnecessary administrative drag for assistants.

✅ We centralize every interaction, providing you and your clients a clear, real-time view of outstanding actions and deadlines.

Secure Document Sharing

Version control fails when files are shared via static links or attachments, often leading clients to review or sign outdated drafts.

✅ We enforce a one current version view with automatic date-sorting, ensuring all parties operate from a single source of truth.

Message from CEO in Q2 2022 report

Qualified Electronic Signing (QES)

Signing often exists as a disjointed event separated from the negotiation workflow.

✅ We integrate execution as the final, effortless step, allowing you to secure documents with QES, the highest standard under eIDAS, directly within the workspace.

Local Hosting and Audit Trails

Ambiguous data residency creates governance liabilities for firms managing sensitive cross-border matters.

✅ We restrict all hosting and storage to the European Union (Stockholm on-premise by default), generating tamper-proof audit trails that meet the highest technical standards.

Frequently asked questions

Why should my firm join the waitlist now?

We are capping the initial End of Q1 release strictly at 1,000 licenses. It ensures white-glove onboarding and dedicated support for our early partners. If you do not secure a spot on the waiting list now, your firm will miss the first batch and be forced to wait for the general public release later in the year.

How does this improve our current client intake process?

Trust Circle eliminates the friction of collecting passport scans via insecure email threads. Your client verifies their identity once using our biometric secure enclave. You receive an immediate, AML-compliant profile without the administrative chase, and the client can reuse that verified credential across future matters.

Does this replace our current practice management system?

No. Trust Circle sits on top of your internal stack (Microsoft, iManage) and acts as the digital client relationship layer. It bridges the gap between your internal systems and the client, replacing the black hole of email threads with a transparent workspace for status updates, requests, and actions.

Is it difficult to manage permissions for external users?

We solved the “who is behind the screen” problem without requiring complex IAM integration. You invite a client in 30 seconds. Because their identity is verified biometrically, you grant access based on a confirmed person, not just an email address. This verified identity works seamlessly across borders and matters.

How do you handle version control differently than email?

Email attachments create version confusion and risk clients signing outdated drafts. Trust Circle provides a single source of truth with automatic date sorting. Clients always access the one current version, and you retain a complete audit trail of who viewed or downloaded the file.

Is a ZealiD signature legally valid in court?

Yes. Under eIDAS Article 25(2), a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) is explicitly recognized as the legal equivalent of a handwritten signature across all EU Member States. Unlike simple digital signatures, a QES carries a presumption of authenticity in court. We offer this bank-grade security without hardware. Clients simply sign using biometrics.

Where is our sensitive client data stored?

We prioritize data sovereignty. Unlike US-centric providers, we manage all hosting and document storage strictly within the European Union (Stockholm on-premise by default). This ensures absolute adherence to GDPR and protects legal professional privilege and sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI) where applicable.
