London, UK - 25th February 2026 - Laytons ETL is a leading UK commercial law firm, renowned for its client-focused approach rolls out client lifecycle management platform Legl across 100+ staff. The partnership follows the firm’s 150th anniversary in 2025 and a renewed commitment to deliver best-in-class digital client experiences.
The roll out of Legl includes new firm-branded, client-facing workflows that enable clients to complete identity verification, payments, signatures, completion of forms and more in minutes. Internal workflows will simplify back office processes, whilst ensuring a robust approach to AML risk and compliance through the use of Legl’s Risk Assessments, Ongoing Monitoring and Client Onboarding workflows. The client intelligence platform will support growth objectives at Laytons ETL.
Consolidating vendors to drive transparency and efficiency
Laytons ETL selected Legl as part of a strategic move to replace and consolidate multiple legacy vendors into a single, unified client intelligence platform. Previously, the firm relied on point solutions that tackled just a single part of a process. By moving to Legl, Laytons ETL has gained a modern, connected infrastructure for delivering a seamless client experience.
Rebekah Parker, Managing Partner at Laytons ETL, commented:
“As we continue to build on the momentum of our 150th anniversary, it was the right time to modernise how we serve clients and how we operate as a firm. We wanted a platform that reflects our commitment to innovation, transparency, and excellence. Legl stood out immediately - not only for its clear, value-based pricing, but for its ability to bring client onboarding, compliance, and operational workflows together in one place and achieve deep integrations with our technology stack.”
she added:
“Our clients expect a digital-first experience that is fast, secure, and effortless. With Legl, we can deliver that experience consistently, while also giving our teams the tools they need to work more efficiently.”
Strengthening risk and compliance capabilities
The firm-wide rollout also enhances Laytons ETL’s ability to manage regulatory obligations and risk exposure with confidence.
Ben Thorogood, Compliance Officer at Laytons ETL, said:
“Risk and compliance are central to how we protect both our clients and the firm. What impressed us about Legl was the way compliance is embedded directly into the client lifecycle, rather than treated as a bolt-on. This gives us stronger oversight, better auditability, and a more consistent approach across the firm.”
He continued:
“By consolidating our previous systems into Legl, we’ve reduced complexity and strengthened our ability to manage AML risk effectively, including across tricky areas like Risk Assessments, without compromising on client experience.”
A platform for long-term growth
Legl’s deep integration with practice management systems, combined with its client-facing digital workflows and compliance-first architecture, positions Laytons ETL to scale efficiently while maintaining the high standards expected of a leading UK law firm.
Legl CEO, Julia Salasky added:
“Laytons ETL is an exceptional firm with a clear vision for the future of legal services. We’re proud to support their firm-wide digital client experience push and help them deliver faster onboarding, stronger compliance, and greater operational efficiency through our connected client intelligence platform.”
