Zylpha Launches Land Registry Business Gateway Integration

Leading legal systems innovator Zylpha (www.zylpha.com) has announced a new Visualfiles integration with the Land Registry Business Gateway. Enabling users of the LexisNexis Visualfiles case management system to streamline the conveyancing process, the new integration also allows users to request a broad range of information including: office copy entries, bankruptcy searches, daylist enquiries and much more.

This transformational integration reduces the time-consuming administrative burden on the conveyancer and their team. Less admin means more time to focus on the other areas such as client service. By using the Land Registry Business Gateway more efficiently, users save significant amounts of money over carrying out traditional postal requests, a cost reduction that can be passed to the client. In such a highly competitive, price sensitive marketplace, the new system could make a major contribution to winning new clients.

As the data is exchanged through XML, the information used and generated is then automatically returned into Visualfiles for use later. This provides a full audit trail with users able to remain in the system when retrieving information. As there is no need to copy type information back into Visualfiles there is also a significant reduction in data entry errors.

For his part, Tim Long CEO of Zylpha noted, “Our ethos has always been to build software that makes lawyers lives easier. We know from our own experience that administration can take up a lot of a conveyancer’s day and our new HM Land Registry Business Gateway integration a great way to reduce this burden.

“Visualfiles users will welcome this new integration as it’s an opportunity to interrogate the Land Registry for information that underpins the conveyancing process and to use it to issue contracts far more quickly and efficiently.

“When combined with our other integrations, there is no reason why you can’t receive signed instructions and payment, complete AML/ID checks and issue contracts all within the same day.”
