Client Onboarding
We'll help to qualify and onboard new clients and ensure your time is not spent filtering through low-quality requests.
Save time by letting us perform Identity, KYC and AML checks, using the latest in digital ID verification technology.
"Neither the money laundering regulations, nor guidance require firms to see or verify original documents, so if a firm is using a technology solution to obtain and verify identification documents, they wouldn't be required to duplicate those checks themselves by calling in originals."

Payments
Never chase late payments, wait for bank transfers or stress over refunds again.
When you join the Lawhive panel, you are asked to set up a payments account with our independent, FCA regulated payment partner, allowing you to receive funds directly from your clients into your practice's bank account.
Each time you accept an instruction, we automatically bill the client and instruct them to pay you.
Lawhive collects a fee for each billable instruction, which is only paid when you receive funds from the client.
The platform is free to use if you don't engage any clients.
