The Unity® Global Platform and its suite of applications empower Dye & Durham's UK customers to seamlessly run their practice and focus on their clients and growing their business, while automating or streamlining time-intensive aspects of daily law firm management. Firms will have everything they need to run a thriving practice, including:

These essential applications will all be easily accessible from a single landing page, across the UK.
The Unity® Global Platform will continue to evolve to provide ever-greater benefit to UK legal professionals. Advancements planned for the coming months include seamless integration between Dye & Durham's data and insights (e.g. search) and practice management (e.g. accounting) capabilities, enhanced client onboarding tools and a robust, singular conveyancing report designed to improve how solicitors complete property transactions. Enhanced post-completion solutions that enable solicitors and conveyancers to quickly and efficiently satisfy two critical UK government requirements - Stamp Duty Land Tax and Digital Registration Service applications – will also be available through the fully integrated Unity® platform.
