The team at MLC Layers hold the belief that communication, efficiency, and value are important when engaging in legal matters.”

ITK: What sets your firm apart from others?

JT: Our clients are the centre of our customer service. We believe that our business is people’s business, and our objective is to help them with their legal issues and make their experience as pleasant as possible, from the time they contact us to the time the assignment is done, and post assignment communication and relationship.

Our firm is a multi-lingual, multi-award-winning law firm. We have solicitors who besides English, also speak other languages, including Cambodian (Khmer), Chinese, and converse in other languages through interpreter services.

ITK: What are the benefits of using an end to end e-conveyancing solution and staying inside one platform?

JT: The full integration of InfoTrack’s e-conveyancing products and LEAP allows for a seamless customer experience and easy to manage practice management solution.

ITK: How are things going for your firm now? What changes have you implemented to achieve success?

JT: Our firm is busier than ever post COVID-19. I would attribute this to our firm's ability to continue serving our clients seamlessly during and post COVID-19. We have implemented flexible working arrangements and tailored our service to be able to assist our clients in the way they prefer to be dealt with, including hybrid service models with a mix of face to face and remote client conferences.

ITK: What plans do you have to implement further technologies in the future?
