Fieldfisher

Enabling the modern law firm through deploying Microsoft Teams Voice and Rooms

Who is Fieldfisher?

Fieldfisher is a Times Top 20 law firm, specialising in technology, financial services, energy, natural resources, and life sciences. It operates with 1,700 employees across 25 international offices in 11 countries.

 

Setting the scene

Fieldfisher had the following challenges with its existing collaboration solution:
  • Exisiting meetings and collaboration solution was approaching end-of-life.
  • Targets to drive down collaboration costs while improving user experience.
  • Disparate global workforce of 1700+ users based across 26 offices.
  • Existing collaboration environment was fragmented and siloed.
  • On-premises Exchange infrastructure required a complex cloud migration.
  • Complicated ecosystem of vendors led to many third-party platforms.
Microsoft Teams Voice & Meeting Rooms

When migrating all mailboxes to Exchange Online, a lift and shift of the existing Skype for Business policies and replicated dial plans was required.
