Legal practice management, AI and accounting for UK firms.
Legal practice management software for UK firms. Cited AI research, matter files, time recording and accounting stay connected, without retyping.
Integrates with
The connected workflow
From legal question to client invoice, without losing the thread.
Most firms use separate tools for research, matter files, time, and billing. Writford keeps every step connected to the same record.
Legal research
AI retrieves UK statutes and case law, drafts a cited answer, and awaits solicitor review before reliance.

Research. Manage. Bill. Connected.
Writford is built around the way legal work actually moves through a firm: from legal question, to client matter, to recorded time, to invoice.
Research Intelligence
Cited UK research that stays attached to the matter.
Writford retrieves relevant UK legal sources, prepares a solicitor-reviewable answer, and keeps the authority visible. The answer can then be saved directly to the matter record with its sources intact.

Risk & Compliance
AI Conflict Check, before the work begins.
The moment you open a matter, Writford screens both the client and the opposing party against every party your firm has ever acted for or against. A conflict you could never hold in memory is surfaced before you act on the instruction.
Screened across the whole firm
Both parties are checked against every client, former client and opponent your firm has ever recorded, across all matters and every fee-earner. Not just your own files.
Catches the matches people miss
Ltd or Limited, ampersands, abbreviations, typos, initials, and pasted accented names like Zenith and Zénith. Sound-alike names such as Catherine and Katherine are matched phonetically, with company numbers and emails checked too.
AI confirms, a solicitor decides
Amazon Nova reviews the borderline name matches and confirms whether two similar names are the same legal entity. It can strengthen a finding but never clears one. The judgement stays with a qualified solicitor.
Graded so you can triage
Every result is graded Definite, Potential or None, and each finding names who in the firm holds the conflicting record, so you know exactly who to speak to.
A warning you cannot miss
Screening runs automatically the moment a matter is created, and a persistent banner stays on every screen until a solicitor records a decision on the conflict.
Every decision on the record
Mark a match as not a conflict, record an own-interest conflict the firm cannot act on, or act for conflicting clients under an exception. For an exception it records which one you relied on, where the written consent is held, the safeguards, and the reviewer's reasoning, with who and when.
Screening runs automatically, and your firm's files are never used to train AI models.

Security & Governance
Designed for solicitor-grade control.
Writford is built for sensitive legal work, where confidentiality, review, access control and auditability matter.
Your files are stored in the UK
Documents and matters are stored in UK regions. AI requests are processed by Amazon Web Services and may be processed outside the UK under the UK's approved data transfer safeguards.
A solicitor signs off, not the AI
Answers arrive source-linked and wait for review. The AI can put a finding in front of you; it can never clear one.
Never used to train a model
Client files, prompts and answers are not training data. Your firm's material stays your firm's material.
Access that matches the role
A fee earner sees their own matters. A cashier sees every matter and can change none. Set once, applied everywhere.
Now on iPhone and Android
Your practice, in your pocket.
The Writford mobile app brings cited UK legal AI, your matters and biometric-locked client files to your phone. The same account and the same data as the web app, wherever the work takes you.
- Cited UK legal AI chat, with Search and Extended Thinking
