Teal Compliance

What Teal Compliance does

Teal Compliance is a UK-based compliance consultancy exclusively serving law firms, founded in January 2018 by Amy Bell and operating on a remote working basis with team members across the UK and internationally. The company offers a portfolio of compliance services including SORTED Programmes (structured gap-identification and remediation), Ask Teal (consultation helpline), Legal Compliance Audits, Policy Review and Writing, Compliance Training, Website Audits, and Fraud Prevention Services. Its proprietary technology product, Teal Tracker, is a compliance management platform for record-keeping, analysis, deadline tracking, and trend identification designed for law firm MLROs and COLPs.

The firm's commercial model is multi-stream professional services: ongoing contractual compliance advisory, project-based audits and policy work, structured multi-month SORTED engagements, and individual training courses and webinars (including AML Masterclasses and Coffee & Conversation webinars). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with multi-year contracts common. The go-to-market combines direct consultative sales to law firm compliance decision-makers with a content-led community approach — blogs, webinars, newsletters, and conference speaking by Amy Bell in her capacity as Chair of the Law Society's Money Laundering Task Force. The team comprises seven named professionals with over 100 years of combined compliance experience, supplemented by industry-expert trainers.

Teal operates exclusively within the UK legal vertical (with an Australian subsidiary, AML Sorted, handling that market) and counts named customers including Right Legal, Constantine Law, Streathers Solicitors, Gunnercooke, Dunn & Baker, Chattertons, and Venus Legal. The company is privately held, bootstrapped with no external funding, and positioned as a specialist expert firm rather than a scaled technology platform.
