New Business from Across the UK

A range of new business has already been secured in 2006 by TFB. For example Abbey Legal Protection is a non-private practice company who provide legal expense insurance to employees of their member companies who include a major supermarket chain. Previously they had used a bespoke system but began looking around for a mainstream legal accounts package and, having narrowed it down to three, opted for TFB due to the level of functionality offered and the TFB's willingness to work around their needs.

Other new business includes Blacklaws Davis LLP and Beaumont Residential established by existing clients Beaumont Legal to supply conveyancing services. TFB's Small Practice Edition (SPE) has also enjoyed a flurry of activity with Bains & Co amongst many new users.

Two firms have recently signed up to implement Partner for Windows in Scotland including Boyd Property, who are based in Edinburgh West End and have signed a deal to install accounts and case management across their firm. They pride themselves on being 'like no other solicitor / estate agency service in Edinburgh' because of their proactive approach to finding new clients looking for properties enabling them to find the right buyer for every vendor, sometimes before a property is even on the market...and they are open 7 days. Peter Boyd, Partner at the firm comments:

'We need to use the very latest technology to promote our services and saw no reason why we couldn't extend this to the database we use to keep in touch with our clients and overall practice. In a very short time Partner for Windows has enabled everybody in the practice to keep in close contact with clients and stream-line our working practices from estate agency through to conveyancing completions and accounts. Within a matter of a month we saw dramatic improvements in service, efficiency and client and staff satisfaction.\�
