Warrington-based X-Press Legal Services has revealed plans to expand its national franchise network by 30 per cent in the coming years.
The firm, which provides data to solicitors and conveyancing professionals, is aiming to achieve the goal by 2021 following a period of significant investment in legal technology.
X-Press Legal Services was formed in 1998 by Dave and Lynne Lister, and has since developed into a successful firm with 24 franchise offices across the UK.

Lynne says: “The recent investment in IT has formed a significant part of our strategic plans for growth.
“In order to deliver the very best service to our clients and our franchisees, we have to remain ahead of the curve; our new systems allow us to do that.
“We pride ourselves on delivering a highly personalised service to our conveyancing practice clients but this has to be backed up with super-efficient reporting.”
The outlook follows X-Press Legal Services’ success in being acknowledged within the PlanetCompliance LegalTech 500 for the creation of its online directory, ‘Law Plain and Simple’.
The directory has been ranked at number 10 on the list, which showcases organisations harnessing the power of technology to deliver improved legal services.
