Amy Newton is the Compliance Officer for DTM Legal’s Commercial Property and Residential Conveyancing teams, supporting colleagues across both the Liverpool and Chester offices.
Amy plays a key role in helping fee earners meet their anti-money laundering regulatory obligations, with a particular focus on documenting clients’ source of wealth and source of funds for conveyancing purchases. Her role involves liaising directly with clients where needed, helping to make the process as straightforward as possible, while also supporting fee earners and support staff with client due diligence and onboarding queries.
Before joining DTM Legal, Amy gained four years’ experience at an international law firm, where she achieved ICA Accreditation in Anti-Money Laundering. Prior to this, she spent more than 10 years working as a contractor in the financial sector, supporting a variety of clients with Know Your Customer processes and complaints handling.
Outside of work, Amy spends much of her time with the busy juggle of life as a full-time working parent. When time allows, she enjoys lifting weights at the gym and unwinding with her Kindle in the evenings.
