Nova Conveyancing

Nova Conveyancing: conveyancing for agents and brokers in England and Wales

Nova Conveyancing is a conveyancing firm operating in England and Wales that presents itself as a partner to estate agents and mortgage brokers. Its proposition is built around speed of processing, cost transparency and the use of digital tools to track each case. Nova is the trading name of Connect2Law Limited, a company registered in England with number 05153796 and VAT 234 6752 01.

Two service levels: Nova Ascent and Nova Rocket

The firm structures its offering into two options. Nova Ascent is the base service, with a target completion time of 12 weeks, which the company says is 20% below the industry average. Nova Rocket is the accelerated option, with a target completion time of 7 weeks and a supplement of £900 plus VAT; the website indicated that if that deadline is not met, the amount is refunded. Both levels include a dedicated account manager, a senior legal team, a 24/7 online tracking portal, a price guarantee and no hidden fees.

Digital tools and case tracking

Nova's operational core is its own technology ecosystem designed to reduce delays and risks. It includes AI-assisted title checks, a client portal accessible at all times with real-time updates, electronic signature and DocuSign. The company states that this digital approach allows clients and partners to check case progress without the need for follow-up calls.

Guarantees and fee policy

Nova backs its service with a guarantee called "No Move, No Legal Fee": if the sale or purchase does not complete, the client does not pay the firm's legal fees. The company also states that prices are communicated in advance and that additional charges only apply when unforeseen circumstances arise. For more complex transactions, such as buy-to-let purchases, buying unregistered land or using a lifetime ISA, the firm charges additional fees that it presents as transparent.

Client profile and partnership model

The service targets three audiences: estate agents and mortgage brokers who offer it to their clients, private buyers and sellers, and a network of introducer partners. Nova states that it works with hundreds of estate agencies and brokers in England and Wales and that it adapts its capacity to each partner's demand, with the aim of sustaining long-term partnership relationships. The firm presents itself as an exclusive premium service available only through a select network of partners.

Awards and ratings

The company reports a rating of 4.8 stars on Trustpilot and 4.9 on Google. Among the awards it cites are National Conveyancing Firm of the Year at the 2022 Modern Law Conveyancing Awards and first place in the UK law firm category in the Sunday Times UK 100 awards of 2023 and 2024. The testimonials on its website highlight its flexibility as a partner, the frequency of updates without needing to request them, and the reduction in calls thanks to the online portal.

Team and corporate responsibility

The service structure includes relationship managers and a senior legal team. Among the sales managers are Frances Hill and Vanisha Meisuria. In the area of corporate responsibility, Nova notes that its commitment to digital has enabled it to reduce 21,809 kg of carbon emissions, save 60,314 gallons of water, preserve 9,291 kg of wood and eliminate 1,509 kg of waste. The firm also mentions social initiatives such as sponsoring daily meals for vulnerable children, a canine vaccination campaign and a beach clean-up in Mount Lavinia (Sri Lanka), support for an endometriosis awareness tournament and participation in UK charity events such as the Corporate Cup in aid of Shooting Star Children's Hospices.
