Five Tips for Profitable
Conveyancing:
1. Implement a Document
Management system that’s
accurate and efficient
A System should have :• A library of all forms, documents and letters so that everyone in the
firm can instantly find the right information
• An integrated database, so you capture data once and reuse it
throughout the matter
• A system that updates forms, rates and all other aspects of the
software, so that you don’t have to worry about them.
2. Ditch the spreadsheet
when creating completion
statements
Have a template for your preferred style of statement that
• Automatically calculates legal rates, grants and charges,
then inserts them into documents for specific properties
and circumstances
• Automatically includes all your search costs in detail
• Can easily recalculate as completion dates change
• Creates accurate statements in minutes, eliminating
hours of manual checking
3. Critical date can change –
ensure your software can
handle this!
4 Integrate a good search
Software Provider with your
Document Management
system
The integration should allow you to :-
• Order your searches directly from the conveyancing matter so that
the search system is automatically aware of the property details
• Return every search result electronically into the matter, document
management system, to prevent misfiring and uncertainty
• Pay a single supplier for searches and let them worry about payment
of numerous third parties
5. Use an accounting
software you trust
Any Accounting Software should include :• A legal timesheet
• Cost recoveries and disbursements
• Bills and Statements
• Management reports
• Fully Comply with SRA regulations
