Hoowla’s AML software helps law firms simplify client due diligence, automate AML checks, and maintain clear compliance records, all within your case management system.
Run checks, collect client data, and store results in one place, without relying on disconnected tools or manual processes.
Managing anti-money laundering (AML) requirements can be one of the most complex and stressful parts of running a law firm.
You may be dealing with:
Even small gaps in your AML process can lead to compliance issues and added pressure during audits.
Hoowla removes the complexity from AML by embedding checks directly into your workflows.
Instead of juggling multiple systems or manual processes, you can:

Run AML checks quickly and easily from within Hoowla, with clear results returned directly to the system.
Capture all required client information, including address history, to support accurate AML checks.
Verify client identity using structured data and built-in validation processes.
Automatically generate AML certificates and store them securely against the client record for future reference.
Hoowla’s AML functionality is fully integrated into the desktop platform, allowing your team to manage compliance without leaving the system they already use every day.
Rather than relying on separate tools or external processes, AML checks can be carried out directly within each matter. Client information is captured as part of the case, and checks can be initiated using that data, removing the need to re-enter details or switch between systems.
You are able to continue the process by inviting clients to complete their AML checks. Once submitted, their information is automatically synced back to the case, keeping everything accurate, up to date, and stored in one place.
This creates a smoother, more efficient workflow where compliance becomes part of the natural progression of a case, not an additional task.
Once the client completes the process, you can view the results within the Hoowla case management system.
The results include the client’s submitted photo, location data, and any other relevant information.
If your firm only accepts certain addresses, you can review and verify the client’s provided address against your criteria.
If the application is denied, the system provides additional information to assist you in addressing the issue with the client.
Hoowla also provides an AML app designed to support secure and compliant identity verification, helping firms meet the requirements of HM Land Registry’s Safe Harbour standard.
Through the app, clients can securely provide identity information and verification data as part of the AML process. This allows your firm to carry out checks in a structured and consistent way, while maintaining a clear record of how identity has been verified.
By aligning with Safe Harbour requirements, the AML app gives firms greater confidence in their processes and provides an additional layer of reassurance when handling property transactions.
Combined with Hoowla’s wider AML and case management functionality, this creates a fully connected compliance workflow, from initial onboarding through to verification and record keeping.
The app provides clear, step-by-step guidance, similar to the user-friendly interface of banking apps.
Clients can scan their passport’s NFC chip for quick and secure identity verification.
Clients are prompted to take a photo of themselves to match with the passport data, and the app requests the client’s location to verify their presence during the verification process.
All captured data, including photos and location information, are securely stored in the case document for your reference.
Understanding AML in theory is one thing, seeing how it works within your actual workflow is what makes the difference.
