GVA TECH Creates Entry Point for Lawyer Business DX, Partners with Yoshidumi Info to Offer "Benpal for Google Workspace" to Law Firms

GVA TECH Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Shun Yamamoto; hereinafter "GVA TECH"), provider of the "Benpal" series of services for lawyers, has entered into a business partnership with Yoshidumi Info Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Harumichi Akitada; hereinafter "Yoshidumi Info"), a premier partner of Google Workspace. Together, they will begin offering Google Workspace services and support for implementation and utilization, branded as "Benpal for Google Workspace," specifically for law firms.

This initiative will provide a package that includes recommended initial security settings for law firms, AI templates specifically for legal practice to integrate Gemini and NotebookLM into daily work, and learning content that condenses operational and management know-how, all without changing the Google Workspace license fees.

GVA TECH will continue to develop this as a foundation to support the IT adoption entry point for law firms nationwide.

What is "Google Workspace"?

Google Workspace is an integrated suite of cloud tools for business provided by Google. It includes various applications such as email, Drive, Calendar, online meetings, and a generative AI assistant, all built-in. With advanced security and seamless integration between applications, it enables organizations to streamline internal communication and collaboration, thereby improving productivity. Yoshidumi Info is a group of experts certified as a Google Cloud Premier Partner by Google.

Background of the Business Partnership

Currently, the boom in IT utilization, including generative AI, is accelerating across all industries. For law firms, a digital shift is an urgent necessity, driven by the government's promotion of IT in civil litigation. However, in practice, firms face challenges such as difficulty in designing security with strict confidentiality obligations in mind, and data dispersion, which prevent them from adopting new systems or lead to poor adoption even after implementation.

Therefore, by combining GVA TECH's deep domain knowledge of legal practice with Yoshidumi Info's expertise in Google Workspace system implementation, we have established a support system directly linked to practical work, enabling law firms to safely and immediately benefit from the cloud and AI.

Features of Google Workspace as "Benpal for Google Workspace," Specialized for Law Firms

Law Firm Recommended Security Settings to Support Confidentiality Obligations

To protect client information, case records, and the firm's reputation, initial Google Workspace settings will be applied according to policies suitable for law firm operations. This includes measures against unauthorized access through two-factor authentication and suspicious login detection, prevention of leakage through external sharing restrictions and shared drive permission management, and establishing a foundation for backup systems using Vault and audit logs.

Preset AI Templates Ready for Immediate Use in Legal Practice

Practical templates that utilize Gemini and NotebookLM to streamline daily tasks will be provided. These include organizing legal consultations, drafting responses to clients, initial investigation for new cases, comparing case precedents, and assisting with the creation of statement drafts.

Abundant Learning Content and Operational Support from Yoshidumi Info x GVA TECH

In addition to standard Google Workspace operation manuals, initial setup, and management know-how, specific utilization guides tailored to law firm scenarios such as new case acceptance, client handling, entry/exit/handover, and AI usage rules will be prepared.
