WHAT'S INCLUDED
Every Confirmly check is stored against your Casera case, giving your firm a clear record that due diligence was carried out before funds were sent.
Confirmly notifies you if the account name, sort code, or account number for a firm has changed in the last 6 months. This gives you an early warning that something may have changed and warrants further checks before you send funds.
Every check automatically surfaces any SRA alerts, including fraud warnings, assigned to the firm within the last 12 months, so you are not relying on manual searches of public registers.
You can re-run a search at no additional cost. This is particularly important given that the indemnity only covers funds transferred on the day of the search, so if completion is delayed, you can refresh the check before sending funds.
MORE DETAIL
Casera has partnered with Confirmly to give conveyancers a fast, reliable way to verify the identity and bank account details of other law firms before transferring client funds.
Conveyancing fraud is a real and growing risk. Firms regularly receive bank details by email or over the phone, and if those details have been intercepted or falsified, client money can be sent to a fraudulent account with little chance of recovery. With average transaction values around £180,000, the financial and reputational consequences of getting it wrong are severe.
Confirmly is built by LMS, the UK's leading provider of conveyancing panel management services. The technology is underpinned by LMS Panel Link data, a service that connects mortgage lenders with law firms who meet specific quality, security, and compliance criteria. This means the data behind every Confirmly check is not scraped from public registers or self-reported. It is continuously verified through thousands of direct interactions with law firms each year, with around 300 firms updating their details every month. Confirmly also holds data on off-panel firms that are consistently searched against, so coverage extends beyond the lender panel.
Unlike other providers on the market, Confirmly verifies actual bank account details, draws from multiple bank data sources, includes lender panel data, covers firms in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, and indemnifies every match result. Competitor products typically offer fewer of these features at a higher price point.
Through Casera, you can run a Confirmly check before any funds transfer. In seconds, the system verifies the law firm's identity, their bank account details, and flags any regulatory alerts from the SRA, returning a clear result: match, match with cautions, no match, or no match with cautions. If you receive a match, the search is indemnified up to £250,000, giving your firm an additional layer of protection beyond your existing PII arrangements. Every result also includes a downloadable PDF summary with risk reducers aimed at providing further verification steps.
