For Law Firms

Secure Document Sharing for Law Firms

Law firms handle contracts, briefs, and discovery documents that demand strict access control. CloakShare provides email-gated links, audit trails, and dynamic watermarks to maintain attorney-client privilege and prevent unauthorized distribution.

The problem

Sensitive case documents forwarded outside the intended recipient list

No audit trail for who accessed which version of a contract

Email attachments create uncontrolled copies that persist forever

Existing secure sharing tools charge per-seat, making firm-wide rollout expensive

Video and document sharing in one platform

CloakShare is the only secure sharing platform that handles both documents and video. Upload MP4, MOV, or WebM files alongside your PDFs and presentations. Videos are automatically transcoded to adaptive HLS streaming with 720p and 1080p quality tiers, watermarked with the viewer's email on every frame, and tracked with per-viewer watch-time analytics.

No other document sharing tool offers this. Not DocSend, not Papermark, not Digify. For law firms that need to share both documents and video content, CloakShare eliminates the need for separate tools.

Frequently asked questions

Does CloakShare provide an audit trail for document access?

Yes. Every view is logged with the viewer's email, IP address, timestamp, pages viewed, and time spent per page. You can export this data via API or webhooks for compliance records.

Can I restrict document access to specific email domains?

Yes. You can restrict links to specific email addresses or entire domains (e.g., only @lawfirm.com addresses). Viewers must verify their email before accessing the document.

Is CloakShare compliant with legal data handling requirements?

CloakShare is self-hostable, so you can run it on your own infrastructure to meet any data residency or compliance requirements. Documents are rendered server-side and never transmitted as raw files to the viewer.

How much does CloakShare cost for a law firm?

CloakShare has no per-seat pricing. The Growth plan at $99/month covers your entire firm. Compare that to DocSend at $65/user/month, which costs $1,300/month for a 20-attorney practice.
