ETSOS – Keeping an Eye on compliance
4th July 2013
You’ve probably noticed that compliance is a bit of a recurring theme these days. Indeed, hardly a day seems to go by when it doesn’t feature in some media story or official statement. Only recently, the SRA has warned against the temptation to stray from the compliance path as tough economic conditions continue.
You’ll know that the ETSOS ethos has always been about delivering products and services that make our clients lives easier – simplifying search ordering, improving quotation production, and continually evolving a highly competitive and convenient one-stop-shop for conveyancers .
We’re already helping ease the compliance burden in offering what is the most comprehensive search selection available in the market, but we appreciate too that sometimes a little extra help may be needed. That’s why we’re delighted to announce a partnership with leading compliance experts Legal Eye.
For a taster of how Legal Eye may be able to assist with the various regulatory and risk management challenges facing law firms today, why not check out the new ‘Legal Eye App’? It can be downloaded for free from the iTunes App Store.
Commenting on ETSOS’s latest alliance, managing director Phil Natusch said:
Strategic partnerships enable us to give clients access to an extended range of complementary services, safe in the knowledge that they have the ETSOS seal of approval. Legal Eye’s expertise and reputation in the conveyancing field makes it an easy recommendation from our point of view.”
Jaunita Gobby of Legal Eye added: ‘We’re looking forward to being able to assist ETSOS clients and help take the pressure off in what is becoming an increasingly demanding, stressful and time-consuming area. We share the same ETSOS principles of being here to make life easier, and we hope we are similarly effective in our personal, practical and friendly approach.”
