Sydney, 3 September 2025 — Legl, the award-winning legal technology platform trusted by 450+ UK law firms, today launched Legl Pay in Australia to help local firms accelerate payments, simplify compliance, and deliver a modern client experience.

Already processing over 20,000 payment transactions per month across its global client base, Legl brings its robust, proven digital payments infrastructure down under. In the UK, Legl has helped firms reduce debtor days, increase automation, and improve client satisfaction—all while maintaining full compliance with trust and AML regulations.

Legl Pay: powering payments for Australian law firms

• Accelerated cash flow and flexibility
  Firms can accept payments instantly via card (including Apple Pay) through a branded, mobile-first portal. More than half of payments are made outside standard office hours, with 59% completed within 24 hours and an average of just 16.3 hours from request to receipt.
  
  
• Compliance built in
  Legl Pay routes funds into the correct trust or office accounts with merchant fees billed separately. It delivers full audit trails and references for reconciliation—giving firms confidence in their compliance, especially as Australia approaches its Tranche 2 AML/CTF regulation roll-out.
  
  
• Efficiency and integration
  With no recurring platform fees, Legl Pay lets firms pay only for the transactions they process. It features intelligent workflows—automated reminders, embedded invoice references, payment plans, and powerful dashboards—plus integrations with Actionstep and other popular PCMS.
  
  
• Outstanding client experience
  The mobile-optimised, branded checkout experience makes paying simple and professional. The look and feel reinforce trust while making payments effortless for clients.

Bringing world-class legal payments experience to Australia

“Law firms across Australia face rising operational demands and increasing regulatory pressure,” said Julia Salasky, CEO of Legl. “Legl’s experience processing tens of thousands of payments every month while helping firms slash debtor days and tighten compliance—provides a solid foundation for the Australia market. Legl Pay delivers those proven efficiencies with the flexibility, ease, and trust that Aussie firms and their clients expect.”

Legl Pay is available today as a standalone solution or as part of the broader Legl platform for client onboarding, risk, and compliance.
