QMS 4 LAW®
QMS 4 LAW is the only independent international quality mark especially for lawyers.
QMS 4 LAW is independent of all lawyer self-interest groups membership organisations, law societies and councils. It is not written by lawyers and it sets standards for the benefit of purchasers of legal services.
Particularly suitable for the larger firm or in-house legal team working across jurisdictional boundaries, QMS 4 LAW certification is available worldwide.
QMS 4 LAW is of particular value where lawyers compete for work internationally. It helps maintain consistent quality and risk management standards across jurisdictional boundaries - and provides independent verification to clients that services are of the highest quality.
Practices with QMS 4 LAW exceed the requirements of ISO9001:2008.
We offer unrivalled QMS 4 LAW technical advice and hands-on help, including the creation of a complete suite of QMS 4 LAW compliant quality management system documents tailored to the unique needs of your practice - normally within weeks.
