Law firm is awarded Quality standard in conveyancing
One of the area’s largest law firms has been awarded Conveyancing Quality standard (CQS) by the Law Society in recognition of its strong client care credentials, high practice management standards and delivery of high-quality service and a commitment to excellence.
GHP Legal, which has offices in Oswestry, Llangollen and Wrexham gained the CQS accreditation after going through a complex application process involving an assessment panel and external checks.
The CQS is designed to provide property owners and lenders with a benchmark when dealing with law firms undertaking residential conveyancing and aims to ensure consistent and high standards of practice affording buyers and sellers greater certainty within transactions.
“We feel the accreditation is essential as it gives potential clients the security and peace of mind of knowing they are dealing with a firm that has had defined standards and specialised regulation for Residential Conveyancing imposed upon it,” said Richard Lloyd who heads up the Oswestry department of the firm’s nine strong residential conveyancing team.
“Each accredited firm of Solicitors will be required to renew their membership of the scheme annually and to do so will undertake specialist continuing professional development. Ultimately the Law Society hopes the scheme will deter fraud and drive up standards in the industry – which we are backing one hundred per cent.”
