A new artificial intelligence-led conveyancing firm Farringdon has opened to the UK residential property market.
Based in Central London and regulated by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers, Farringdon is open for agency partners to refer clients selling residential properties anywhere in the UK.
JLL and Streets Ahead are confirmed among the firm’s first sales agency partners.
Farringdon is established and led by Ed Boulle, co-founder of Orbital, a legal AI scale-up business.
Sue Bence is Farringdon’s chief operating officer. She has two decades’ experience in partner, COO and board-level roles and brings strengths in high-volume conveyancing and consumer legal services.
Sarah Debney joins as head of legal practice. Debney is a licensed conveyancer with almost 40 years of residential conveyancing experience.
Among other senior roles, Debney was formerly head of legal practice at Simply Conveyancing.
Farringdon says it will share its AI technology with other conveyancing firms. The firm’s AI engineers and conveyancing professionals collaborate to build agentic AI workflows that supplement human expertise.
The new conveyancing firm is currently building referral partnerships with early adopters and will take instructions from May this year.
Commenting on the launch, Boulle says: “Moving home should be one of life’s best moments, but the process of making it happen can be extraordinarily stressful and unpleasant.”
“Poor visibility, communication blackspots and bottlenecked information flows – all often created by the conveyancer’s lack of bandwidth – are problems buyers and sellers have come to expect as part and parcel of the process.”
“At Farringdon, we’re throwing out those assumptions. We’ve designed our firm from the ground up around AI to prove that it is possible to deliver the same high quality experience consistently, regardless of the variables at play.”
“Our AI-led approach isn’t designed with only buyers and sellers in mind, but for the agents and advisers working with them too. No agent or adviser wants to be left in the dark or for their client to reflect on their property transaction with dissatisfaction; it’s bad for business.”
