Our Company
With a client base of over 6500 users in South Africa, Swaziland, Mauritius, Botswana, Lesotho and Namibia, LegalSuite provides a complete turnkey solution for the legal profession in Southern Africa.
Why LegalSuite?
Anrie Eastes, Chief Operations Officer at LegalSuite Software, does some research to discover why a growing number of the leading law firms in South Africa are switching over to LegalSuite.
Smith Tabata Buchanan Boyes (STBB), one of the largest conveyancing law firms in South Africa, recently chose LegalSuite to run their extensive conveyancing practice.
“We have converted our first branch and are very happy with the results at this stage," says Brent Mackay of STBB. “We needed a SQL-based system that could provide us with the tools to manage our multi-branch environment without diminishing our ability to provide excellent customer service. After extensive investigations, LegalSuite was the obvious choice.”
Lawyers Access Web (L@W) and LegalSuite have formed joint initiative to integrate their products to provide a attorneys with direct access to L@W's online products.
L@W has a range of web-based products, such as a FICA Solution, L@W Deed (Deeds Office Tracking solution), online Rates Clearance Certificates, and SearchWorks, which are now accessible from within the LegalSuite program.
The modern conveyancer relies more and more on electronic instructions and online services to obtain vital information and speed up the registration process. The ability to obtain rates clearances certificates, conduct FICA clearances, search Deeds Office records, communicate with the banks, track the progress of a bond, all from within the LegalSuite program, offers enormous time-saving benefits.
Understanding the Conveyancing Process
A property transaction is a complicated and often misunderstood process. It involves a number of parties and institutions, many of whom have conflicting interests. All of them, however, have to coordinate their efforts to ensure that the documents arrive at the Deeds Office on the same day.
LegalSuite's conveyancing modules guide the user step by step theough the process, but is essential to know how the process works.
