Peyto Law Awarded Lexcel Accreditation
Peyto Law is celebrating after securing the Law Society’s Lexcel accreditation. The firm is the only legal practice in Fleet to hold this prestigious quality mark, which is awarded to firms that meet stringent practice management standards covering good customer care, case management, office administration, financial management and risk assessment.
“This is a fantastic accolade for Peyto Law” says Louise Humphreys, Principal of the firm. “Undergoing Lexcel accreditation was challenging, but we felt it was important as it reflects the attitude and manner in which we manage our work, place emphasis on keeping our clients informed and always act in their - not our - best interests. In addition, securing the accreditation is in keeping with our philosophy of setting ourselves apart in the legal marketplace”.
Linda Lee, President of the Law Society of England and Wales, commented "Peyto Law's achievement of gaining Lexcel accreditation proves a commitment to the continual development of the practice's management standards. By implementing policies, plans, processes and procedures within Lexcel's key areas, such client service and risk management, Peyto Law will become even more effective in managing their practice. In addition, this achievement shows the positive steps taken by Peyto Law to help clients in the increasingly diverse, complicated and competitive legal market."
Welcome to Peyto Law
Peyto Law has been established to provide specialist Local Government and Planning Law advice. In most cases and for most people this interface happens at a local level with district, county or unitary councils. However regardless of how and with whom, in a climate of increasing and ever changing legislation the best method of securing your aims and objectives is through specialist advice.
Peyto Law's Sole Principal has over twelve years' experience in the field, primarily obtained through employment with local authorities. We are therefore able to provide expert advice and at competitive rates.
All new clients are offered a fixed fee initial interview at our office for £75 + VAT (£88.13 including VAT, payable at time of interview). This interview is intended to give you the opportunity to outline your situation to us and for us to explain to you some of the options available and the likely costs that may be involved. Following this interview it is your decision as to whether you would like us to carry out any further work for you. This is a no obligation service and we are content to give you advice and then allow you as much time as you may wish to decide how you would like to proceed.
In all cases we will give you an indication of the level of costs likely to be involved and details of our charging rates; we will be pleased to provide you with fixed fee quotations on request.
Please note that at the current time we do not hold any franchises or contracts from the Legal Services Commission which enable us to provide assistance through public funding arrangements (also known as legal aid).
