Legal Automation · Solicitors · Law Firms · Conveyancers

While you're in court,
your practice keeps moving.

Client intake, matter updates, document generation, billing — your fee earners are losing hours each week to administration that doesn't require a qualified solicitor. We fix that.

Per Ardua Nostra, Ad Astra — Ignyss.

The problem

Your solicitors are doing secretarial work.

Every hour a fee earner spends chasing a client, formatting a document, or sending a matter update is an hour not billed. In a profession where time is literally money, admin is the silent profit drain.

Client intake is slow and inconsistent
New matter opened, client asked to provide ID, evidence, signed authority — all chased manually by email. Onboarding that should take two days takes two weeks, frustrating clients before the work even starts.
8–12h per new matter
"What's happening with my case?" — every week
Clients call and email for updates because they have no visibility. Fee earners and PAs spend hours every week responding to status requests on matters that haven't materially progressed. None of this needs a human.
3–4h/week per fee earner
Document drafting is slower than it should be
Standard letters, court documents, contracts, completion statements — re-drafted from precedents each time, with manual population of client details, matter references, and dates. Templated work done manually, every time.
2–4h per document set
Billing gaps cost the firm thousands monthly
Time goes unrecorded. Disbursements get missed. Bills go out late. The gap between work performed and work invoiced is a structural profit leak that most firms have normalised — but don't have to accept.
10–20% billing leakage
Critical deadlines are managed in spreadsheets
Limitation periods, court filing deadlines, exchange dates, completion dates — tracked in diaries and spreadsheets that require human vigilance. One missed deadline is a negligence claim.
Professional indemnity risk
AML and compliance paperwork is a burden
ID verification, source of funds checks, conflict searches, client care letters — each new matter requires the same compliance steps, each done manually, each a chance for error or omission.
3–5h per new client
New enquiries don't get a fast enough response
A prospective client contacts the firm. Response time depends on who picks up the phone or email. No immediate acknowledgement, no structured qualification, no consistent first impression. Clients who needed a solicitor yesterday go elsewhere.

Six stages from consultation to automation.

We audit where your firm is losing billable time, design the automation architecture, and deploy it without disrupting live matters or client relationships.

01
Discovery — Free 30-Min Call

We map your practice areas, fee earner count, current tools, and where admin is eating into billable time. No commitment, no pitch deck.

Zero cost, full value
02
Audit — Deep Operational Map

We trace every matter lifecycle — from enquiry to file closure — identifying every manual step, every admin task, every risk point. We put a number on it.

Design — Automation Blueprint

Client intake workflows, matter update sequences, document generation pipelines, billing prompts — all mapped and specified before a single line is built.

No surprises

      Connects to your practice management system.

      We integrate with the tools your firm already uses. No rip-and-replace — automation layered over your existing infrastructure.

      Built for firms that charge on expertise, not administration.

      "

      In law, time is not just money — it is the whole business. Every hour a solicitor spends on administration is an hour that cannot be billed. And it is entirely avoidable.

      Core principle · Ignyss Legal
      "

      The firms that will define the next decade are not the ones with the best lawyers. They are the ones who freed their lawyers from the work that didn't need them.

      Operational insight · Ignyss
      "

      A missed deadline in law is not an inconvenience. It is a negligence claim. Automation removes human vigilance from the critical path. Systems don't forget.
