Francis Wilks & Jones has successfully achieved Lexcel accreditation following its 2026 full assessment, reaffirming the firm’s commitment to high standards of practice management and client care.
This latest review formed part of the Law Society’s three-year accreditation cycle and involved detailed assessment across 208 separate areas. The firm achieved 15 recognised areas of good practice and no areas of non-compliance, reflecting a consistently strong performance across all aspects of its operations.
Lexcel is the Law Society’s quality mark for legal practice management. It sets recognised standards for client care, compliance, financial management and operational systems. For clients, accreditation provides reassurance that their matters are handled within a structured and independently assessed framework, with clear processes and consistent standards applied throughout.
The scale of the 2026 assessment underlines the depth of the review process. Maintaining full compliance across such a wide range of areas, while also achieving multiple good practice commendations, demonstrates the effectiveness of the firm’s internal systems and governance.
This result reflects the collective effort of the entire firm. It is built on the day-to-day standards applied across all teams, ensuring that client service, risk management and operational processes remain aligned and reliable.
Francis Wilks & Jones continues to review and refine its systems to ensure they meet both regulatory expectations and the practical needs of its clients.
