About Houldsworths

5th September 2008

Houldsworth Solicitors who have offices at Pullman House, Duck Street Clitheroe and The Coach House, Accrington Road, Whalley have been awarded the Lexcel Practice Management Standard by the Law Society.

Out of the 10,000 or so firms of Solicitors in England and Wales, only 760 have to date been able to achieve Lexcel.

Accreditation follows a rigorous external independent assessment of the offices and is only granted to those Solicitors  who achieve the highest of standards of practice, case, risk management and Client care.

Partners John Houldsworth and Amanda Hall are very proud of the achievement which has involved all the firm’s fee earners and staff.

Amanda says “The combined effort of all members of the firm ensured that Lexcel was achieved at the first attempt, which is most unusual.

We were the first firm of Solicitors in the North West to be awarded the prestigious Investors in People Standard back in 1995.  The further achievement of Lexcel clearly shows that we are continuing to be both forward thinking and progressive in this changing world”.
