The review indicated that Thatcher + Hallam has managed it's response to the pandemic in an impressive way, and it also highlighted that a focus on areas of risk, such as cybercrime and money laundering, was being well managed.

"The annual Lexcel accreditation is our opportunity to demonstrate that we meet the highest customer care and management standards. This is something we take pride in day in day out and I am grateful to all the team for their efforts in ensuring this happens, but also that we could demonstrate it during the accreditation process," added William.

This way of working is key in ensuring our staff are well looked after and that our clients receive the best possible service from the team."
