Choosing a professional for a legal or financial matter is a real decision. Verification exists so you can start from a list of people whose credentials have been checked — not just self-declared.
What we check today
- Practice credentials — such as ICAI membership for Chartered Accountants or Bar Council enrolment for advocates — submitted as documents and reviewed by a member of our team.
- Practice details on the profile, including the profession, experience and specialisations listed.
- Supporting documents such as a government-issued ID, where provided.
What the badges mean
- Verified Professional — our team has approved the profile. Profiles that are not approved are never listed in search.
- Verified Credentials — practice documents have been reviewed by a person.
- Client Reviews — reviews can only be left by clients who completed a paid consultation through SAVYA.
- Verified Identity — automated identity checks are on our roadmap and labelled “Coming soon” until they are live.
What verification is not
Verification confirms credentials; it is not a guarantee of outcome or an endorsement of specific advice. Professionals on SAVYA are independent and responsible for the advice they give. Always read a profile carefully, ask questions in an enquiry, and choose the person who fits your situation.
