WESTBURY law firm Pinniger Finch and Co has won an accolade from the Law Society, receiving the industry’s management quality mark, Lexcel.

The accreditation for law firms and in-house legal departments shows it meets high client care and business management standards.

To gain and retain Lexcel accreditation, practices must undergo a rigorous initial process, then annual applications and assessments.

Senior partner Bill White said: “While we are pleased that we have secured the Lexcel quality mark, it is our clients who are the main beneficiaries.

“They can be assured that the way we manage the practice has their interests at heart and runs efficiently.” Lucy Scott-Moncrieff, president of the Law Society, said: “Gaining and maintaining Lexcel is no mean feat.”
