What having one location for all your tech tools means

Accessing all your legal tech tools in one platform eliminates the tedious task of navigating through multiple applications. But is it possible? Dye & Durham chief product officer David Nash explains

Technology has a big role to play in unlocking efficiencies for law firms, and there are a number of options on the market. But how can firms maximise the impact these innovations offer?

The best way is to bring together disparate systems onto a single platform, enabling streamlined operations, efficiency gains, and a better experience for your clients. From practice management to conveyancing, due diligence, company formations, legal accounting, and document management — the law firms that can access all these tools seamlessly from a single place will give themselves a distinct competitive advantage.

The impact? Removing administrative bottlenecks and reclaiming precious fee-earning time.

Dye & Durham’s new Unity® Global Platform is a next-generation solution that introduces an array of new applications and features—all accessible under a single, user-friendly login. Think of Unity® Global Platform as your single destination for everything you need to run a thriving legal practice, including:

Practice management and legal accounting

Effective practice management and legal accounting are the backbone of any successful law firm. However, many firms still rely on an array of disconnected systems, causing inefficiencies and delays when systems don’t communicate with one another. In our view, the future demands a comprehensive practice management solution that consolidates all essential tools and services onto one platform.

Plus, integrated financial reporting allows firms to gain valuable insights into their financial performance, enabling better decision-making and strategic planning, while built-in calendaring, task management, and time tracking maximise every minute of a fee-earner’s time.

Client onboarding

Start your client’s journey with a great onboarding experience and easy ID verification while ensuring compliance. Complete essential know-your-client (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) checks with advanced technology, and quickly deliver client care packs, from an easy-to-use and secure digital environment. Your first step is done, but there’s no need to switch to a different solution for your next one.

End-to-end conveyancing workflow and data

For conveyancers, a consolidated technology platform can make a big difference to their bottom line. For example, accessing legal forms for each case as part of a standardised workflow, which integrates search orders, will ensure that every aspect of the transaction is quickly and reliably delivered, creating valuable time savings and improved accuracy. There’s also the added benefit of facilitating seamless communication with clients, estate agents, and other parties involved in each transaction, leading to more streamlined or transparent communications, faster completions and happier clients.

Confident decision-making with due diligence reports

In both property and corporate transactions, due diligence is paramount. Law firms (and their clients) need access to reliable information to make informed decisions. A consolidated technology platform provides seamless access to comprehensive due diligence reports that cover all aspects of a transaction, enabling law firms to provide their best advice as efficiently as possible.

Efficient document management and storage

Document management and storage are essential for maintaining accurate records and ensuring compliance. A consolidated technology platform offers a centralised repository for all documents, making it easier to manage, search, and retrieve critical information, all from the same place.

Dye & Durham’s Unity® Global Platform delivers all these benefits and more to law firms looking to make their operations more efficient, free up more fee-earning time, and grow their practices.
