Library

Most firms keep their "standard wording" somewhere: a Word file on a shared drive, a folder of past reports, the senior conveyancer's memory. Reviewers copy from whichever copy is closest, edit on the fly, and over time the firm's voice drifts. Curia Contract Review fixes the distribution, not the content.

The problem with copy-pasted standards

The standards exist; they just aren't reaching every review consistently. A clause gets updated in an email, and from then on it's whoever can find that email versus whoever reaches for last month’s template. The wording on the file shouldn't depend on which document you happened to open first.

How the Library works

One source of truth for every review

Clauses, dealings and recommendations live in a single firm-wide library. Open any contract and Curia loads the same options. The wording on the file isn't down to which template was nearest to hand.

Sensible defaults, your firm's words

Curia ships with many defaults for the conditions, dealings and recommendations conveyancers see most often: easements, restrictions, covenants, common special conditions, the standard recommendations purchasers need to understand. Edit any of them to match the way your firm writes. Add custom clauses for anything the defaults don't cover.

Edit once, every future review reflects it

Change a clause in the Library and the next review uses the new wording. No re-sending templates, no version control to chase, no reviewer working from an older copy. Recommendations behave the same way: edit the text in one place, and the next time the condition fires, the new wording lands on the report.

State-aware by default

Library options are filtered by the contract's state. A NSW review only sees NSW clauses and recommendations; a VIC review only sees VIC ones. Firms working across both keep one library and let Curia route the right content to each file.

Tuned to Australian conveyancing

Defaults are written for the NSW standard contract and for Victorian contracts and Section 32 statements , with the clauses, dealings and recommendations Australian conveyancers actually use. Recommendations cite the page and clause they're related to, so when you see one you can verify it with a click.

Real results

Bell Conveyancing reports that reviews now read consistently from one file to the next, in Bell's own voice rather than whichever template happened to be open. The Library is the reason. Every reviewer is choosing from the same shelf, in the firm's own words.

Where it sits in the review

The Library is a firm-wide content asset, not a workflow step. It powers the contract review itself, where Curia matches dealings against your library and reviewers select clauses, and the Personalised Reports your purchasers receive at the end. What your team uses internally and what your clients read stay in sync. It pairs naturally with Smart Prefill , which reads the contract and lines extracted special conditions up against the Library for selection.
