How conveyancing firms are using onboarding automation to grow

August 15, 2025 Checkboard Team
An automatic coffee machine, representing the march of automation.

Across the conveyancing landscape, automation is unlocking serious growth. From small practices to conveyancing giants, firms are adopting tech solution to onboard clients faster and more efficiently. But what does automation look like in practice, and what are the real benefits to this revolution?

Scale efficiently with automation

For many firms, growing the business simply means adding more clients. But that typically means adding more work, more admin, and more strain on already stretched teams.

But growth doesn’t have to mean chaos, and with the right technology behind you, it can actually be smooth and seamless.

Automation is empowering conveyancers to scale efficiently. It’s allowing them to handle more files, onboard more clients, and maintain compliance without hiring twenty new staff members or burning out the existing team.

Build repeatable processes

But it’s not just about speed. Automation brings greater consistency to your workflows, too.

Automation allows you to create seamless repeatable workflows, eliminating the variability that leads to mistakes and delays. You can handle ID verification, source of funds checks, and audit trails with very little manual input – this frees up valuable time and ensures your compliance process is fast and consistent.

That consistency is what users get from Checkboard. Clients receive a single, secure link that allows them to complete the steps from the phone, and the firm gets notified immediately. It’s fast and scalable.

Unlock capacity

One of the biggest gains is time. Automated workflows free up your most valuable resource: your people. With less time chasing documents, correcting errors, or jumping between platforms, your team can focus on what actually drives growth. That means progressing matters, building client relationships, and winning referrals.

This applies to small, three-person high-street practices and large, fast-growing firms handling hundreds of transactions per months. Automation is highly scalable, and platforms like Checkboard grow in capacity as your business does.

Checkboard allows conveyancers to handle more volume without any of the friction and inefficiencies that manual or disjointed methods create. This means you can grow your business more efficiently without compromising compliance or customer service.

Safe Harbour: How to achieve 100% completion

January 23, 2026 Checkboard Team

Safe Harbour is an enhanced standard of identity verification imposed by HM Land Registry. It requires conveyancers to verify a client’s identity by scanning the NFC chip in their passport. It is a more reliable – and harder to spoof – method of identity verification than simply entering an individual’s passport details into a database. It helps […]

How law firms can get peace of mind with the new AML regulators

January 9, 2026 Checkboard Team

The Financial Conduct Authority is now the Single Professional Services Supervisor (SPSS) for AML compliance, taking over the job from the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) as part of a government-led “blitz” on “pointless admin”. If it delivers on this promise, this move will come as a relief to firms sweating under an increasingly heavy compliance […]
