Muve has been named in the 2024 edition of The Sunday Times 100, the annual ranking of Britain’s fastest-growing private companies.
To qualify for The Sunday Times 100, companies must be independent, privately-owned, headquartered in the UK, and have sales exceeding £5 million in their latest year of trading, up to a limit of £250 million.
Muve has achieved a compound annual sales growth of over 66.9% over the past three financial years. This marks the second consecutive year that Muve has featured in the Top 100, and this year, it stands out as the only law firm on the list. Notably, Muve grew by 27% last year, despite a 20% reduction in national conveyancing volumes.
Muve has a proven track record of disruptive technology and product innovation in the conveyancing market. Its MuveFast guaranteed exchange date product leads the industry in terms of exchange timelines. In addition, Muve pioneered the first digital remortgage transaction in the UK using the PEXA platform in September 2022. David Jabbari, Chief Executive Officer of Muve, commented:
“Our success is driven by a dedicated team passionate about getting our customers moved into their homes as quickly as possible. This achievement is just the beginning of Muve’s journey to becoming the dominant force in UK conveyancing, leading the market in customer experience, tech innovation, and powerful partnerships with estate agents.”

Good luck to them. I might not agree with their methods or charging strategy but if it works for clients and clients and lenders monies are protected then fair enough.
My issue when I have to deal with them is that all the fee-earners I deal with are in Columbo, Sri Lanka, and (according to their LinkedIn profiles) are usually Sri Lankan trained engineers.
Whilst qualified lawyers in England and Wales come from many backgrounds and often have degrees in subjects other than law, they have all done a conversion course/CILEX/LC course in English Law.
Dealing with someone who has no background or training in English Law and is not and has never been resident in or educated in England makes for a very difficult conveyancing process.
Yes, this! How on earth the CLC allow them to get away with this I do not know.
I won’t name names, but I once left a firm (SRA Regulated) because I was asked to look at working with a team based in India doing our title reports and enquiries.
The stuff that goes on in the background without the consumer realising is staggering at times.
Proof that bigger is most definitely not better.
We have had to put in a formal complaint re our sale as they never respond to anything any quicker than 3 days, do not respond to escalation enquiries or complaints about their service. Absolutely horrendous service
