AML Health Check
Tranche 2 AML/CTF obligations already apply to law firms. A free, 10-minute gap check tells you exactly where your firm stands today — not where you assume it stands. Once you submit, we review your answers and email you our recommendation, with a fixed-fee quote to follow. No obligation, no meeting required to start.
Ten short questions, about 10 minutes
Whether your AML/CTF program and risk assessment are adopted and approved or still in progress, whether a Compliance Officer is appointed, how client due diligence and onboarding actually work day to day, whether escalation and training are current, and whether AUSTRAC has been in touch with your firm directly — including any formal notice.
Nothing is scored or shown back to you on screen while you're answering. Once you submit, we review your answers and email you our recommendation, so you know exactly what your firm needs to do next.
Based on your answers, we'll email one of two recommendations
- AML Operational Health Check — for firms whose program is already adopted and approved. A fuller, fixed-fee review testing whether what's documented actually operates in practice. See below.
- Catch-up — the most common outcome, for firms with gaps to close. Fixed-scope work to bring your program up to what the Act requires. See below.
- If you've told us your firm has received a formal notice from AUSTRAC, the recommendation is the same Catch-up work — we just treat your firm's response as urgent and get in touch ahead of our usual turnaround.
The gap check takes ten minutes. Closing a gap properly takes weeks, not days. The sooner you know where your firm actually stands, the more runway you have to fix it on your own terms — rather than AUSTRAC's.
AML Operational Health Check
The gap check tells us your firm needs a fuller look. The Operational Health Check is that engagement — a fixed-fee review, confirmed and paid before work begins, of whether your AML/CTF program actually operates the way it's documented to: the designated services you've identified, your governance and Compliance Officer arrangements, your risk assessment, your CDD and escalation processes, your training and record-keeping, and your PMS and technology workflow.
It starts with a structured online questionnaire — the same kind of detail the gap check collects, but in full. That's what gives us what we need to tell you exactly what's required to bring your firm into compliance: a written assessment, a prioritised list of gaps, and a practical roadmap for closing them, backed by a focused review conversation where it's useful.
It's reached only after a gap check recommends it, or by direct link if JurisIT has shared one with your firm — it isn't a separate front-door offer on this page.
Closing the gaps
Catch-up is fixed-scope work that brings your AML/CTF program up to what the Act requires — built around whatever your gap check identifies. Depending on your firm, that typically involves:
- Finishing or formally adopting your AML/CTF program document
- Completing your firm's money laundering and terrorism financing risk assessment
- Appointing and documenting your AML/CTF Compliance Officer
- Tightening your client onboarding and due diligence checklist
- Documenting an escalation process for staff who identify a concern
- Bringing staff AML/CTF training up to date
We follow up with a written gap letter setting out exactly what we found, and a fixed-fee quote for closing it — fixed scope, fixed fee, confirmed before anything proceeds, never published here.
Tell us when you complete the gap check
If your firm has received a formal notice or information request from AUSTRAC, tell us when you complete the gap check. The work itself is the same Catch-up process described above — the notice doesn't change what needs doing, it just means we treat your firm's response as urgent and reach out ahead of our usual turnaround.
What to expect, step by step
- Free, ten minutes — ten questions about where your program actually stands today.
- A recommendation by email once we've reviewed your answers: Health Check or Catch-up, without needing to book a call first.
- No pricing surprises — any quote is fixed-fee and always confirmed with you before work starts. Pricing is never published on this page.
- Confidential — your answers go to JurisIT only, to prepare your recommendation. Don't include client names or details of any specific suspicious matter.
- Any stage welcome — including firms that haven't started an AML/CTF program yet. That's exactly what the gap check is built to identify and quote on.
- Already had a notice from AUSTRAC? Say so when you complete the gap check — the work is the same Catch-up process, we just prioritise your firm's response and reach out sooner.
