A century of legacy, a future of AI, and major time savings for Cobb Cole

Florida law firm Cobb Cole migrated terabytes of legacy legal records from Worldox to Box in 2020 to improve resilience during hurricane seasons, reduce infrastructure overhead, and modernize document management. After evaluating SharePoint and Box, the firm selected Box for its simpler user experience, integration with its practice management system, and support for both Box Drive and web-based workflows, which helped limit disruption during adoption. The move reduced broad document search times from one or two minutes to seconds, replaced encrypted email attachments with governed shared links, and strengthened security through Box Shield ransomware protections, SIEM-integrated activity logs, and the 2026 deployment of Box Shield Pro. Cobb Cole has introduced AI cautiously by piloting Box AI in one department, creating a self-service IT support hub with an AI chat agent, and emphasizing permissions, governance, and employee education. The firm is also automating client onboarding folder creation and testing dynamic estate-planning forms, presenting its phased migration, security focus, and measured automation strategy as a model for other firms operating legacy systems.
