Internet Services Department

Our Internet Services Department is comprised of copywriters, programmers, designers and search engine marketing experts. Currently, the department is charged with maintaining 40 websites including www.beasleyallen.com which alone comprises over 2800 individual web pages.

The main focus of www.beasleyallen.com is to educate the public about the issues and cases we are currently focusing on. The other websites are designed to bring awareness to specific issues that affect the public. These issue-specific websites cover everything from the dangers of asbestos to whistleblower law.

Unfortunately, if a website cannot easily be found then the wealth of information contained on the website is of little use. Say for instance, you have been the victim of a loan scheme that has brought about the possible foreclosure of your home. Time is running out and you need to find a predatory lending lawyer before it is too late. Consider for a moment that there are currently over 44,000 search results for predatory lending lawyers in Microsoft's Live Search index. This is why we spend a great deal of time and energy focusing on Search Engine Optimization. By improving the quality of our websites' placement in the organic search listings we are able to increase the amount of people who have access to the information on our consumer-oriented websites.

Information Technology Department

We are very fortunate to have our own full-time, on-site Information Technologies (IT) Department to support our campus wide network. This campus currently includes 5 historic buildings in downtown Montgomery, Alabama. Our IT Department is currently staffed with seven IT professionals, each possessing various levels of experience in the IT field. Many of the IT Department members have successfully passed rigorous industry certification exams such as: Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, Cisco Certified Network Associate, Network+ and A+.

For the more technical readers, our network is spanned over 4 city blocks and connected via a fiber optic backbone. Each building within the campus is then serviced by Matrix E5 switches, each having a 45G backplane. The fiber from each of these buildings terminates in our Network Operations Center (NOC). The NOC is our environmentally controlled and monitored server room housing the application, file, and telecommunication servers that the firm relies on to practice law. Within the server room are dozens of Dell and Compaq servers required to meet the every need of the attorneys and staff of our firm.

Our voice and data services are fed from our NOC over a direct fiber connect to the Xspedius Communication switch. This fiber ring allows for extreme reliability, along with the power and speed of fiber optics. Upon entry into the NOC, this fiber is fed into an OC3, where it is split into voice and data; voice being routed to our Avaya Definity phone cabinet, and data being routed to our Cisco 1700 and 2600 routers. All total, we have 4 PRIs handling the voice demands, and 4 bonded T1s for our internet research and transfer of data.

All of our data and communications are secure behind our network security system, including firewalls and a network intrusion detection system; designed to keep hackers and unauthorized users from accessing confidential client information.

Graphics Department

Our in-house graphics department develops graphical presentations to be used in the courtroom and in mediations. These graphical presentations allow our attorneys to give the judge and jury a complete picture of the case at hand. We have found that using the latest technologies in the courtroom greatly increases the chances for a favorable verdict.

Time and time again, opposing councils, juries, and judges have praised the presentations developed by our graphics department and how the presentations greatly helped in the success of the case.

These many technological advancements allow Beasley Allen to stay in the forefront of multi-media and case-management.
