Security first for legal professionals
Litigators, mediators, and in-house teams use NexLaw to handle highly sensitive pleadings, evidence, and strategy documents. Every security decision at NexLaw is made with that in mind: data is encrypted end-to-end, access is tightly controlled, and our platform is operated on independently audited infrastructure aligned with SOC 2. This page summarizes the controls your firm can rely on when adopting NexLaw.
- Built for law firms, courts, and ADR professionals handling confidential matters.
- Hosted on hardened, SOC 2 aligned infrastructure with continuous security monitoring.
- Strong encryption by default for data in transit and at rest.
- Full audit trails for defensible eDiscovery and internal oversight.
SOC 2 compliance and independent assurance
NexLaw operates on infrastructure and controls that are aligned with SOC 2 Type II requirements across the Trust Service Criteria for Security, Availability, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Independent auditors test the design and operating effectiveness of these controls over a defined review period, providing your firm with assurance that security is not just claimed but evidenced.
What this means for your firm
- Documented security, availability, and confidentiality controls aligned to SOC 2
- Change management, access management, and incident response procedures formally defined and tested
- Continuous monitoring and regular vulnerability assessments across the NexLaw environment
- A detailed SOC 2 report available to qualified customers under NDA upon request
To review NexLaw's latest SOC 2 documentation, contact info@nexlaw.ai and our team will provide the relevant report and supporting materials under a confidentiality agreement.
AES‑256 encryption in transit and at rest
NexLaw encrypts all traffic between your browser and our platform using modern TLS, and encrypts stored data using AES‑256, the widely adopted 'bank‑grade' encryption standard. Encryption keys are managed and rotated according to strict internal policies, reducing the risk of unauthorized decryption even in the event of a compromise.
How data flows through NexLaw
- Client data is sent over HTTPS using up‑to‑date TLS protocols.
- Requests are authenticated and authorized before any processing occurs.
- Case files, messages, and AI outputs are stored in encrypted databases and object storage using AES‑256.
- Only authorized users and services with appropriate roles can decrypt and access data needed for a given task.
From the moment data leaves your device to the moment it is deleted, it remains protected by strong cryptography and strict access controls.
Designed to respect attorney-client privilege
NexLaw is built for privileged legal work, not general consumer use. The platform is designed to help firms avoid inadvertent waiver of attorney-client privilege or work-product protections when using AI to prepare cases, summarize evidence, or draft documents.
Key privilege protections
Client and matter data submitted to NexLaw is not used to train public models
Each firm has logically isolated environments and access controls to prevent cross-matter or cross-client data leakage
Firms can set retention rules so that matters and related AI outputs are retained or deleted in line with internal policies and regulatory obligations
Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that only authorized personnel within your organization can view or act on a matter
When counsel uses NexLaw to analyze evidence or generate drafts, the data remains within a controlled legal environment rather than a generic public AI service.
Defensible audit trails for every action
NexLaw maintains detailed audit trails so that firms can see who accessed which matters, what actions they took, and when. These logs support internal governance, regulatory compliance, and eDiscovery obligations by creating a verifiable history of user and system activity.
What is recorded
- User authentication events, including successful and failed login attempts
- Matter‑level actions such as document uploads, edits, exports, deletions, and AI analyses
- Changes to permissions, team membership, and workspace configuration.
- System events relevant to security, such as session expiries and policy changes.
Authorized administrators can export audit logs for internal review, regulatory reporting, or production in the context of an investigation or litigation hold.
AI transparency with LLMs.txt
NexLaw participates in emerging web standards for responsible AI by publishing an llms.txt file at the root of our domain. This file gives AI crawlers and model operators clear guidance on how NexLaw content may be accessed, referenced, or restricted.
What llms.txt communicates
- Which parts of the site are intended for indexing, such as public blog posts and educational resources.
- Which areas must not be used for training or automated scraping, such as customer dashboards and proprietary product materials.
- Expectations for citation and attribution when NexLaw content is referenced in AI outputs.
You can view NexLaw’s llms.txt file at https://nexlaw.ai/llms.txt to understand how we manage AI access to our content.
