use an encrypted email service. there's nothing to set up. all they
need is a browser or an app on their phone.
That would require a binding contract and spend money, which they did
not want to do.
no it wouldn't. it only needs a mutual agreement to use an encrypted
medium. there are free options as well as paid ones. choose whichever
one works best for all parties involved.
Not for a lawyer, it wouldn't. He would be directly liable if the email
gets intercepted or somehow compromised.
it's actually ideal for a lawyer, since it's basically impossible to
intercept and crack end-to-end encrypted email unless the passcode is
something trivially guessed.
lawyers should be using such a system anyway because they are required
to keep certain information confidential.
Good old paper and couriers.
a courier could mysteriously disappear, along with the documents. then
what?
nothing is perfect.
